Prospective Pilot Study Assessing Imaging Performance of 89Zirconium-labelled Girentuximab (89Zr-TLX250) PET-CT in Patients With HepatoCellular Carcinoma, Biliary Tract Carcers or Gastro-Entero-Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms.
Precision medicine represents a major goal in oncology. It has its underpinning in the identification of biomarkers with diagnostic, prognostic, or predictive values. Gastro-entero-pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasia (GEP-NENs) are rare tumors, but their frequency is increasing. In this context, the tumor expression of carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX), complemented by a restricted profile in normal tissues, provides an opportunity for therapeutic targeting and precision medicine. Indeed, radiolabeling the anti-CAIX monoclonal antibody girentuximab with Zirconium 89 has shown promise as a novel positron emission tomography (PET) tracer and labeling with 177 Lutetium promise as a therapeutic agent in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) in the context of a theranostic approach. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of 89Zr-labeled girentuximab (89Zr-TLX250) as a novel, carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) targeted PET/CT tracer for the imaging of Gastro-Entero-Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms, Hepatocellular Carcinoma or IntraHepatic Cholangiocarcinoma.
