Pinverin Application Trial to Reduce Bowel Uptake of FDG (Fluorodeoxyglucose)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
-
Background
-
PET/CT (positron emission tomography/computed tomography) using FDG (fluorodeoxyglucose) is widely used for evaluation of cancer patients.
-
Bowel uptake of FDG is a serious problem that hampers the proper reading of PET/CT.
-
There is no widely-accepted method to reduce the bowel FDG uptake.
-
Purpose
-
To know whether pinverin (pinaverium bromide) application during PET/CT can reduce bowel uptake of FDG.
-
Pinverin is a calcium-channel blocker that ameliorates the bowel contraction.
-
Pinverin may be useful to reduce bowel FDG uptake by ameliorating the bowel contraction during PET/CT acquisition.
-
Method
-
Intervention versus control: administration of single tablet of pinverin (50mg) perorally versus simple water (~100mL).
-
Timing of administration: At the time of FDG injection. PET/CT images will be acquired 1hr post FDG injection.
-
Primary outcome
-
SUV (standardized uptake value) difference between pinverin administered patient group versus control group.
-
SUV (standardized uptake value) is calculated as: (decay corrected radioactivity in mCi/mL) x (body weight in g) / (injected radioactivity in mCi)

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- SUV (standardized uptake value) [1 hour after FDG (the radiopharmaceutical for PET/CT) injection]
SUV is the quantitative parameter of FDG uptake during PET/CT and represents the degree of relative FDG uptake in a specific lesion. SUV is calculated as: (decay-corrected radioactivity in mCi/mL) x (body weight in g) / (injected radioactivity in mCi). The unit of SUV is g/mL.
