Detailed Description
This is a single center exploratory imaging study investigating the initial application of 89Zr-DFO-CZP PET in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Patients with active symptoms of RA or signs on physical exam will be invited to participate for PET imaging. Study 1 is a dose finding study that will involve a single 89Zr-DFO-CZP PET scan acquired ~24 hours following a single administration of the radiopharmaceutical. The first 2 patients will receive 1 mCi of 89Zr-DFO-CZP. Subsequent groups of two patients will receive 0.5 mCi decrease or increase dose (up to 2 mCi) to determine the acceptable optimal imaging dose. After receiving the dose, participants will undergo 4 serial whole body PET scans between 2 hours and 120 hours after dose administration. Several blood samples will also be collected over this time period, for dosimetry analysis.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Uptake of 89Zr-DFO-CZP taken up in symptomatic versus asymptomatic joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). [2 years]
Investigators will be evaluating whether 89Zr-DFO-CZP is taken up in symptomatic versus asymptomatic joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Uptake of 89Zr-DFO-CZP in symptomatic joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis after administration of a TNF-alpha inhibitor therapeutic. [2 years]
Investigators will be evaluating the uptake of 89Zr-DFO-CZP in symptomatic joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis after administration of a TNF-alpha inhibitor therapeutic.
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

Patients with clinical diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis
Exclusion Criteria:
-
For patients planning to be imaged on PET (positron emission tomography) / MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) (PET/MR) scanner, exclusion criteria will include any contra-indication to MRI, including permanent pacemaker, implantable metallic device/ prosthetic, aneurysm clip, non-removable piercing, or severe claustrophobia

Any medical condition that would compromise the imaging acquisition, in the opinion of the investigator
-
Patients who have had a study involving radiation within one year of enrolling in this study
-
Patients who are pregnant (female patients of childbearing age will be tested prior to injection of imaging agent - positive test will exclude from participating in the study)
-
Patients who are breastfeeding
