Impact of 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT imaging on the therapeutic management of primary and recurrent pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas

Pancreatic ductal carcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal cancer, and early detection and accurate staging are critical to prolonging survival. PDAC typically has a prominent stroma including cancer-associated fibroblasts that express fibroblast activation protein (FAP). FAP is a new target molecule for...

Description
Summary:Pancreatic ductal carcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal cancer, and early detection and accurate staging are critical to prolonging survival. PDAC typically has a prominent stroma including cancer-associated fibroblasts that express fibroblast activation protein (FAP). FAP is a new target molecule for PET imaging of various tumors. In this retrospective study, we describe the clinical impact of PET/CT imaging using 68Ga-labeled FAP-inhibitors (68Ga-FAPI PET/CT) in 19 patients with PDAC (7 primary, 12 progressive/recurrent).
