[F-18]FLT PET Scan for Early Assessment of Tumor Response to Radiation or Chemoradiotherapy Compared to [F-18] FDG PET Scan

Summary

Approximately 60 patients will be enrolled with highly suspected lung cancer, or head and neck cancer. The patients must also be starting radiotherapy or a chemoradiotherapy regimen (except with 5-fluorouracil). The patients will undergo 3 visits. One screening, one pre therapy PET/CT imaging visit, and one (3-5 weeks after the start of therapy) post PET/CT imaging visit. This study will evaluate the FLT and FDG images for tumor proliferation rates for early assessment of tumor response to radiation or chemo-radiation combo.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patient provides written Informed Consent and is willing to comply with protocol requirements
  • Patient is at least 18 years of age on the day of dosing (male or female of any race or ethnicity)
  • Patient is capable of lying still in the PET scanner for the protocol required time frame(s)
  • Patient has a diagnosis of one of the following malignancies using the TNM Staging System:
  • Lung cancer (T3 grade up, node positive, but no metastatic disease)
  • Head and neck cancer (T3 grade up, node positive, but no metastatic disease)
  • Patient has undergone a comparative, diagnostic procedure with lesion(s) visible, other than ultrasound, that includes, but is not limited to computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear medicine imaging, endoscopy, laparoscopy, standard abdominal x-ray, biopsy and/or surgery for one of the above mentioned areas
  • Patient is scheduled to start radiotherapy or a chemoradiotherapy regimen for curative intent
  • As a part of his/her standard radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy regimen, patient is scheduled to have clinical [F-18]FDG PET scans pre treatment and post treatment (at about 4 weeks (±1 week) after the start of therapy)
  • Patient is scheduled to have the investigational, pre treatment [F-18] FLT PET scan recommended to be within ± 2 days of the clinical, pre treatment [F-18] FDG PET scan
  • Patient has not received or intends to receive 5-fluorouracil (chemotherapeutic agent)
  • Patient has a score of greater than or equal to (>/=) 60% on the Karnofsky Performance Status Scale

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patient is a pregnant or lactating female. Exclude the possibility of pregnancy:
  • by testing on site at the institution (serum or urine βHCG) within 48 hours prior to the start of each investigational product administration
  • by surgical history (eg, tubal ligation or hysterectomy)
  • by patient's history of being post menopausal with a minimum 1 year without menses
  • Patient is undergoing treatment with palliative intent
  • Patient has received an investigational compound and/or medical device within 14 days before admission into this study
  • Patient has any medical condition or other circumstances which would significantly decrease the chances of obtaining reliable data, achieving study objectives, or completing the study and/or post-dose follow-up examinations
  • Patient is determined by the Investigator that he/she is clinically unsuitable for the study.
