Abstract:
The present study aims at evaluating the preclinical and the clinical performance of [ 68 Ga]Ga-DATA 5m. SA.FAPi, which has the advantage to be labeled with gallium-68 at room temperature. Methods [ 68 Ga]Ga-DATA 5m .SA.FAPi was assessed in vitro on FAP-expressing stromal cells, followed by biodistribution and in vivo imaging on prostate and glioblastoma xenografts. Moreover, the clinical assessment of [ 68 Ga]Ga-DATA 5m .SA.FAPi was conducted on six patients with prostate cancer, aiming on investigating, biodistribution, biokinetics, and determining tumor uptake. Results [ 68 Ga]Ga-DATA 5m .SA.FAPi is quantitatively prepared in an instant kit-type version at room temperature. It demonstrated high stability in human serum, affinity for FAP in the low nanomolar range, and high internalization rate when associated with CAFs. Biodistribution and PET studies in prostate and glioblastoma xenografts revealed high and specific tumor uptake. Elimination of the radiotracer mainly occurred through the urinary tract. The clinical data are in accordance with the preclinical data concerning the organ receiving the highest absorbed dose (urinary bladder wall, heart wall, spleen, and kidneys). Different to the small-animal data, uptake of [ 68 Ga]Ga-DATA 5m .SA.FAPi in tumor lesions is rapid and stable and tumor-to-organ and tumor-to-blood uptake ratios are high. Conclusion The radiochemical, preclinical, and clinical data obtained in this study strongly support further development of [ 68 Ga]Ga-DATA 5m .SA.FAPi as a diagnostic tool for FAP imaging.
