18F-Fluoroazomycin Arabinoside PET-CT in Diagnosing Solid Tumors in Patients

Active Not RecruitingPhase 1

Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

Conditions: Malignant Breast Neoplasm, Malignant Colorectal Neoplasm, Malignant Pancreatic Neoplasm, Malignant Solid Neoplasm

Interventions: Computed Tomography, Fluorine F 18-fluoroazomycin Arabinoside, Positron Emission Tomography

Countries: United States

This early phase I trial studies how well 18F-fluoroazomycin arabinoside positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) works in diagnosing solid tumors. Using 18F-fluoroazomycin arabinoside with PET-CT may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with solid tumors. 18F-fluoroazomycin arabinoside may help to show how much oxygen is present in a tumor during a PET-CT scan.

Sex: ALL

Age: 18 Years to —

Healthy volunteers: No

Study type: INTERVENTIONAL

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients with histopathologic diagnosis of a solid tumor. All solid tumors will be considered, but patients with breast, pancreas, and colorectal masses will be prioritized.
* Patient must have a solid tumor with a short-axis greater than or equal to 1 cm (by CT, magnetic resonance imaging \[MRI\], ultrasonography or mammography) to allow reliable PET imaging.
* A patient who has not received systemic or loco-regional treatment of the tumor within the last month.
* Ability of the subject, or the legally authorized representative (LAR) if the patient is deemed by the treating physician to be cognitively impaired or questionably impaired in such a way that the ability of the patient to give informed consent is questionable, to understand, and the willingness to sign, a written informed consent.
* Patients who are not expected to receive cancer therapy before imaging sessions are completed.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Pregnant or lactating women: pregnant women are excluded from this study because the effects of \[18F\] FAZA in pregnancy are not known. A urine or serum pregnancy test will be performed before accrual after informed consent is obtained.
* Lactation should be suspended for at least two days following the administration of \[18F\] FAZA to the mother, because of the unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to administration of the radionuclide to a lactating woman.
* Subjects with contraindications to the use of \[18F\] FAZA including confirmed allergy.
* Patients with a body weight of 400 pounds or more, or a body mass index (BMI) which precludes their entry into the bore of the PET/CT scanner, because the findings will probably be compromised in image quality with CT, PET/CT and MRI.
* Any additional medical condition, serious concurrent illness, or other extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator may significantly interfere with study compliance.
