Clinical Trial Summary

Purpose of this clinical phase 1 trial was to determine if para-chloro-2-[18F]fluoroethyletomidate positron emission computed tomography ([18F]CETO-positron emission computed tomography(PET)/computed tomography(CT)) can be used in diagnostics of adrenal tumors and if the biochemical/pharmacological states conditions in humans with various illnesses, compared to healthy humans, such as the radio tracer is suitable?

Description:

After receiving oral and written information about the study and its potential risks, all participants provided written informed consent. All participants underwent a screening visit 1-28 days before their [18F]CETO PET/CT. At the screening visit their medical history was obtained, including besides information of previous disease(s) and medication, also a clinical examination, WHO performance status, height, weight, pulse rate and blood pressure, blood chemistry and haematology. Right before the PET/CT investigation a baseline assessment was performed including: - A physical examination according to Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) - 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) - Any concomitant medications was recorded - Medical history - occurrence of any new symptoms and events since the screening visit - Hematology (International Normalized Ratio (INR) in patients with antiocoagulant treatment). - Pregnancy test in women. - Assessment of injection site monitored by visual inspection (rash and phlebitis) Participants received on average 0,76 mikrograms (range 0,1-1.37 mikrograms) of administered mass of CETO in conjunction to the PET/CT investigation. Potential adverse events were monitored closely during, and after the administration of [18F]CETO, with access to emergency medicine resources. Each participant remained for observation at least 3 hours after administration of [18F]CETO and the following assessments were performed: - Blood withdrawn for additional post-scan chemical analysis. - Assessment of injection site monitored by visual inspection (rash and phlebitis). - MEWS The ten first participants were evaluated for serious adverse events/adverse events (SAE/AEs) the day after (approximately 24 hours after) performing the [18F]CETO PET due to the short half-life of the radionuclide used, fluorine- 18 (T1/2= 109.5 min). Safety reporting was assessed by use of clinical Adverse Events and Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC), laboratory and non-laboratory toxicities.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Evaluate safety of up to two administrations of [18F]CETO in up to 15 patients in comparison with 5 healthy controls.	Number of patients with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by clinical Adverse Events and Common ToxicityNCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.0 (CTCAE)	Up to 1 day after the [18F]CETO PET/CT for each patient
Secondary	Evaluate [18F]CETO as a PET- biomarker for the adrenals and to diagnose and visualize primary aldosteronism, cortisol producing adrenocortical adenoma and non-functioning adrenocortical adenoma in up to 15 patients	Arterial blood was collected to determined the fraction of intact [18F]CETO in plasma. PET- modelling based on dynamic PET-data and metabolite analysis was performed for scientific purposes. Measurement of Standard Uptake Value (SUV) was determined for the adrenal glands.	Up to 24 month
Secondary	Biodistribution of [18F]CETO	Measurement of SUV for organs was determined.	Up to 22 month
Secondary	Compare uptake of [18F]CETO in normal adrenal glands in patients comparing healthy controls and determine the test - retest variability of [18F]CETO.	Difference in SUV in the adrenal glands between two investigations in the samt participant was determined.	Up to 24 month
