| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
KORTUC is a new radiosensitizer developed in Japan. Hydrogen peroxide and hyaluronic acid are injected directly into the tumor, aimed at radiosensitizing effect by degrading antioxidant enzymes and supplying oxygen.In order to visualize and quantify the improvement of hypoxia state by KORTUC, we attempted to improve the sensitizing effect of radiotherapy using hypoxic cell-labeled PET molecular imaging (F-18 MISO-PET).F-MISO-PET was tried before and after sensitizer administration for 2 patients who wished to KORTUC , but none of them were accumulated in the tumor and there was no accumulation change after sensitizer administration.After that, it was not possible to conduct new cases and the study was interrupted.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
KORTUCにより腫瘍内の低酸素状態が改善したことを可視化、定量化できれば、放射線治療の前に増感効果が推定することができ有用で、患者ごとのオーダーメイド治療につながると考えたが、F-18MISO-PETによる可視化は今回の実施例では困難であった。
