To evaluate the safety and VEGFR-3 imaging effects of [Ga]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1) in ovarian cancer patients. 13 patients with ovarian cancer were recruited and underwent radionuclide imaging with [Ga]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1). The safety of [Ga]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1) was assessed in vivo (including vital signs, biochemical indices, ECG, allergic reactions, etc.) and its imaging effect on VEGFR-3 was explored. A total of 1 patient with primary ovarian cancer and 12 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, with an age range of 41-54 years, were included in the study. 13 ovarian cancer patients had a total of 49 F-FDG-positive lesions, 63.3% of which were positive for [Ga]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1). The higher expression of VEGFR-3 in [Ga]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1)-positive ovarian cancer lesions was found by immunohistochemical staining, which was positively correlated. Meanwhile, [Ga]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1) is a safe radiotracer as no significant side effects have been found in the human. In conclusion, [Ga]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1) enables precise molecular imaging of VEGFR-3 in ovarian cancer patients with a favourable safety profile, providing a new tool for the in vivo assessment of VEGFR-3 in ovarian cancer.
评估[镓]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1)在卵巢癌患者中的安全性及VEGFR-3成像效果。招募了13例卵巢癌患者,采用[镓]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1)进行放射性核素成像。在体内评估[镓]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1)的安全性(包括生命体征、生化指标、心电图、过敏反应等),并探讨其对VEGFR-3的成像效果。研究共纳入1例原发性卵巢癌患者和12例复发性卵巢癌患者,年龄范围为41 - 54岁。13例卵巢癌患者共有49个F-FDG阳性病灶,其中63.3%的病灶[镓]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1)呈阳性。通过免疫组化染色发现,[镓]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1)阳性的卵巢癌病灶中VEGFR-3表达较高,呈正相关。同时,[镓]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1)是一种安全的放射性示踪剂,在人体中未发现明显副作用。总之,[镓]Ga-NOTA-(TMVP1)能够对卵巢癌患者的VEGFR-3进行精确的分子成像,安全性良好,为卵巢癌中VEGFR-3的体内评估提供了一种新工具。
