Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well 18F-FSPG positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) work in diagnosing early lung cancer in patients with lung nodules. PET imaging with an imaging agent called 18F-FDG is often used in combination with a PET/CT scanner to evaluate cancers. Giving 18F-FSPG before a PET/CT scan may work better in helping researchers diagnose early lung cancer in patients with lung nodules.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Computed Tomography
  • Drug: Fludeoxyglucose F-18
  • Drug: Fluorine F 18 L-glutamate Derivative BAY94-9392
  • Procedure: Positron Emission Tomography
Phase 2

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Comparison of fluorine F 18 L-glutamate derivative BAY94-9392 (18F-FSPG) accumulation with fludeoxyglucose F-18 (18F-FDG) accumulation to assess whether (4S)-4-(3-18F-Fluoropropyl)-L-Glutamate (18F-FSPG)-PET is better at discriminating between benign and malignant nodules.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. To develop and validate early lung cancer detection biomarkers that would directly impact the growing need to integrate imaging and non-invasive molecular diagnostics for indeterminate pulmonary nodules and allow physicians to avoid unnecessary invasive procedures in patients with benign lung disease.
OUTLINE:

Patients receive 18F-FSPG intravenously (IV) and, undergo a PET/CT scan over 30-60 minutes. Within 24 hours-14 days, patients receive 18F-FDG and undergo a second PET/CT scan over 30-60 minutes.

After completion of study, patients are followed up within 24-72 hours.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Fluorine F 18 L-glutamate derivative BAY94-9392 (18F-FSPG) specificity for malignant lung nodules [Up to 5 years]

      18F-FSPG accumulation in lung nodules will be assessed. The observed FSPG specificity will be assessed against a fixed value of 75%.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Improved performance of prediction model for lung nodules [Up to 5 years]

      Improved performance is defined as a p < 0.05 increase in the C statistic determined using DeLong test for correlated receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.
