Study Description

Brief Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies copper Cu 64 (64Cu) tetra-azacyclododecanetetra-acetic acid (DOTA)-trastuzumab positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in studying patients with gastric, or stomach cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET/CT, may help doctors study the characteristics of tumors and choose the best treatment.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. To compare tumor uptake of 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab (copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab) in gastric cancer patients with pathologic evaluation of tumor human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)/neu expression.

  2. To compare copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab-PET-CT scan with standard radiographic imaging for staging patients with gastric cancer.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab intravenously (IV) on day 1 and then undergo PET/CT scan on days 2 or 3.

After completion of study, patients are followed up for 15 days and periodically for up to 6 months.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of HER2 Negative, Positive, or Equivocal Participants With Either Negative or Positive Tumor Readings [Up to 1 year]

      The reading of the 64CuDOTA-trastuzumab-PET imaging of the study subjects were performed by two radiologists, one who read the first scan and the second nuclear radiologist read the remaining seven scans. To eliminate potential bias, the second nuclear radiologist was blinded to the HER2 status of the tumors as well as the location of the tumor until radiolabeled uptake was measured. XD (version 3.6; Miranda Medical) was used for image analysis.Tumor visualized as "hot" relative to adjacent tissue reported per radiologist as negative, positive, equivocal or unknown.

    Pre-assignment Detail
    Arm/Group Title Diagnostic (Copper Cu 64-DOTA-trastuzumab PET Scan)
    Arm/Group Description Patients will receive 45 mg trastuzumab over 15 minutes prior to the administration of 64Cu -DOTA-trastuzumab, which includes 5 mg of trastuzumab. Imaging will be performed on a GE Discovery 16 Ste PET-CT scanner (axial field of view 15.4 cm). PET-CT images will be performed in 3D mode (septa retracted) and corrected for tissue attenuation based on co-registered CT acquired during the same examination. PET-CT images will be reconstructed with spatial resolution of approximately 9 mm full-width-at-half maximum using an iterative algorithm. Patients will be injected via a peripheral vein with 15 mCi of 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab. PET-CT scanning of 64Cu will be performed between 24 and 48 hours post injection. At 24 hours, the concentration of 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab will allow for whole body PET-CT imaging within the same amount of time required to image the abdomen and pelvis at 48 hours due to the half life of the radiotracer. PET-CT images will be compared to standard MRI or CT scans.
