Evaluation of a Novel PET Imaging Method for Assessing Liver Cancer Treatment Response

Basic Information

Recruitment status Recruiting
Health condition(s) or Problem(s) studiedhepatocellular carcinoma
Date of first enrollment2024/09/20
Target sample size20
Countries of recruitmentJapan
Study typeInterventional
Intervention(s)The intervention in this study is PET/CT imaging using ^18^F-FAPI-74. This imaging technique is performed on patients with hepatocellular carcinoma before and after systemic drug therapy. Specifically, the radioactive tracer ^18^F-FAPI-74 is administered intravenously, followed by whole-body imaging using a PET/CT scanner. The intervention is conducted in a single group, with each patient undergoing the same procedure twice - once before treatment and once after treatment.

Outcome(s)

Primary OutcomeCorrelation between the rate of change in 18F-FAPI-74 PET quantitative values for each lesion and treatment response assessment by RECIST and mRECIST criteria
Secondary Outcome1. Correlation between the rate of change in 18F-FAPI-74 PET quantitative values and the rate of change in tumor markers (AFP, PIVKA-II) 2. Comparison of pre-treatment 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT imaging findings with those of contrast-enhanced CT and MRI
