Radiation Therapy Planning Using Fibroblast Activation Protein Inhibitor - 30/05/23


Résumé |
Computed tomography (CT), MR imaging, and PET with fluorodeoxyglucose F18/CT are commonly used for radiation therapy planning; however, issues including precise nodal staging on CT or false positive results on PET/CT limit their usability. Clinical trials using fibroblast activation protein ligands for additional imaging have provided promising results regarding staging and target volume delineation—particularly suitable for sarcoma, some gastrointestinal tumors, head and neck tumors, and lung and pancreatic cancer. Although further prospective trials are necessary to identify clinical settings for its application in radiation oncology, fibroblast activation protein inhibitor PET/CT indisputably represents an excellent opportunity for assisting radiotherapy planning.
