Outline of Final Research Achievements

A new radiopharmaceutical, C-11 4DST, has been developed as an in vivo cell proliferation marker based on the DNA incorporation method. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of C-11 4DST PET/CT for assessment of disease control of chemoradiotherapy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, in comparison with F-18 FDG PET/CT.
Increased C-11 4DST and F-18 FDG uptake in primary lesion was visible. SUVafter values from C-11 4DST PET/CT in relapse-free group were significantly lower than those in relapse group. The percent change values from C-11 4DST PET/CT in relapse-free group were significantly higher than those in relapse group. Using F-18 FDG PET/CT, SUVafter and percent change were not significant differences between relapse-free and relapse groups.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

悪性腫瘍の特徴として無制限な自律性増殖があげられ、細胞増殖つまり核酸代謝をターゲットとした分子イメージングが注目されている。私どもの施設ではDNA合成イメージング剤としてC-11 4DST PETを行っている。C-11 4DST PETで頭頸部癌の陽性描画は可能である。頭頸部癌の核酸代謝を非侵襲的に評価する事で、予後評価や腫瘍再発評価における有用性が示唆された。
