ABSTRACT
CLR1404 is a cancer-selective alkyl phosphocholine (APC) analog that can be radiolabeled with 124I for PET imaging, 131I for targeted radiotherapy and/or SPECT imaging, or 125I for targeted radiotherapy. Studies have demonstrated avid CLR1404 uptake and prolonged retention in a broad spectrum of preclinical tumor models. The purpose of this pilot trial was to demonstrate avidity of 124I-CLR1404 in human brain tumors and develop a framework to evaluate this uptake for use in larger studies. 12 patients (8 men and 4 women; mean age of 43.9 ± 15.1 y; range 23-66 y) with 13 tumors were enrolled. Eleven patients had suspected tumor recurrence and 1 patient had a new diagnosis of high grade tumor. Patients were injected with 185 MBq ± 10% of 124I-CLR1404 followed by PET/CT imaging at 6-, 24-, and 48-hour. 124I-CLR1404 PET uptake was assessed qualitatively and compared with MRI. After PET image segmentation SUV values and tumor to background ratios were calculated. There was no significant uptake of 124I-CLR1404 in normal brain. In tumors, uptake tended to increase to 48 hours. Positive uptake was detected in 9 of 13 lesions 5/5 high grade tumors, 1/2 low grade tumors, 1/1 meningioma, and 2/4 patients with treatment related changes. 124I-CLR1404 uptake was not detected in 1/2 low grade tumors, 2/4 lesions from treatment related changes, and 1/1 indeterminate lesion. For 6 malignant tumors, the average tumor to background ratios (TBR) were 9.32 ± 4.33 (range 3.46 to 15.42) at 24 hours and 10.04 ± 3.15 (range 5.17 to 13.17) at 48 hours. For 2 lesions from treatment related change, the average TBR were 5.05 ± 0.4 (range 4.76 to 5.33) at 24 hours and 4.88 ± 1.19 (range 4.04 to 5.72) at 48 hours. PET uptake had areas of both concordance and discordance compared with MRI. 124I-CLR1404 PET demonstrated avid tumor uptake in a variety of brain tumors with high tumor-to-background ratios. There were regions of concordance and discordance compared with MRI, which has potential clinical relevance. Expansion of these studies is required to determine the clinical significance of the 124I-CLR1404 PET findings.
