PURPOSE: Gliomas account for 75 % of primary malignant CNS tumors. High-grade glioma (CNS WHO grades 3 and 4) have an unfavorable treatment response and poor outcome. CXCR4 is a G protein-coupled receptor that plays an important part in the signaling pathway between cancer cells and tumor microenvironment. CXCR4 overexpression has been shown in a variety of cancers. In this study, we evaluate the potential value of [68Ga]Ga-Pentixafor as a PET/CT CXCR4-probe for in vivo assessment of CXCR4 expression in patients with high-grade glioma and its correlation with tumor grade.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: [68Ga]Ga-CXCR4 PET/CT was performed in the prospective single-center study in treatment-naïve biopsy-proven patients with high-grade glioma. The acquired images were analyzed qualitatively and semi-quantitatively.
RESULT: A total of 26 patients (mean age: 53.3±14.4 years, 11 women, 15 men) were enrolled. CNS WHO grade 3 pathology was seen in 19 % (5/26) of the sample. The patient-based sensitivity of 68Ga-CXCR4 was 96.2 %. Overall, 28 pathologic lesions were detected, leading to a lesion-based sensitivity of 96.4 %. The median (IQR) SUVmax of grade 4 lesions was substantially greater than the grade 3(3.03(2.5-3.7) vs. 1.51(1.2-1.8), p = 0.0145).). The highest tracer activity of organs -beside bladder as the main excretion reservoir-was in lymphoid tissue of Waldeyer's ring (mean SUVmax: 7.41), and spleen (mean SUVmax: 6.62).
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, this new application for [68Ga]Ga-Pentixafor PET tracer exhibits excellent visual and semi-quantitative diagnostic properties. Further studies are warranted.
