Official title
Positron Emission Mammography With 3'-Deoxy-3'-[18F] Fluorothymidine (FLT PEM) for Evaluation of Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Positron Emission Tomography Imaging with 3-Deoxy-3'-\[18F\]Fluorothymidine (FLT) can selectively identify proliferating and non-proliferating tissues, including tumors. FLT uptake in the tumor is an indirect marker of DNA synthesis activity, which is a target of chemotherapy. Our hypothesis is that early change in FLT uptake in tumor with chemotherapy will predict pathological response to neoadjuvant therapy in breast cancer. Tumor uptake of FLT will be imaged and measured with positron emission mammography (PEM), a PET scanner optimized for breast imaging with a significantly improved resolution compared to conventional whole-body PET imaging systems.
