Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Patients must be 18 years or older for inclusion in this study. Since there is no experience with \[F-18\]FLT in children and it would be inappropriate to study individuals under the age of 18 until more safety data is available.
- After entry into the study, patients are expected to be followed for at least 2 months as part of standard of care.
- All patients, or their legal guardians, must sign a written informed consent and HIPAA authorization in accordance with institutional guidelines.
- The patient, if female, must be postmenopausal for a minimum of one year or surgically sterile, or on one of the following methods of birth control for a minimum of one month prior to entry into this study: IUD, oral contraceptives, Depo-Provera or Norplant. These criteria can be waived at the discretion of the investigator if the patient's tumor is considered life threatening and the one month wait required is not in the best interest of the patient. Negative pregnancy test is accepted.
- Pre-treatment laboratory tests for patients receiving \[F-18\]FLT must be performed within 21 days prior to study entry. These must be less than 4 times below or above the upper or lower limit range for the respective laboratory test. These will include liver enzymes (SGOT, SGPT, ALK Phos, GGT, LDH), bilirubin (direct and total), amylase, serum electrolytes, CBC with platelets and absolute neutrophil counts, prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, BUN, creatinine, and urinalysis.
- Pre-treatment radiological clinical scans/studies (Gd- enhanced MRI or CT to document metastatic renal cell carcinoma) must be performed within 30 days of study entry.
Exclusion
- Patients with known allergic or hypersensitivity reactions to previously administered radiopharmaceuticals or Gd used in MRI imaging. Patients with significant drug or other allergies or autoimmune diseases may be enrolled at the Investigator's discretion.
- Patients who are pregnant or lactating or who suspect they might be pregnant.
- Adult patients who require monitored anesthesia for PET or MRI scanning.
- HIV positive patients due to the previous toxicity noted with FLT.
- Renal Insufficiency Exclusion for MRI contrast injection. All subjects will be screened as to their renal status and those patients with renal insufficiency will be excluded from undergoing a dynamic contrast enhanced MRI scan. This is in response to the recent association of MRI contrast agents with the development of Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF). The patient will have a creatinine value determined within 4 weeks prior to the proposed MRI scan and have a GFR determined from the creatinine value and other data that can be used at various websites to determine the GFR. If the GFR is greater than 60 ml/min/then the patient will be deemed eligible for contrast injection. If the GFR value is between 40 ml/min and 60 ml/min the risk versus benefit of performing the contrast injection will be discussed with the referring physician and the patient. If the GFR is less than 40 ml/min the dynamic contrast study will not be performed. The non-contrast MRI scan however will be obtained for anatomic reference for the PET studies.
- MRI exclusion criteria:
- Presence of any ferromagnetic metallic implants or foreign bodies, including pacemakers and certain types of stents and orthopedic hardware.
- Claustrophobia or inability to remain stationary within MRI system for \~30-45 minutes.
- Inability to breath hold for periods of at least 20 seconds.
- Known history of adverse reaction to Gd chelate contrast agents.
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Non-imageable tumor, including tumors with smallest dimension less than 10mm or tumors located in regions excessively affected by susceptibility artifacts at bone- and air-tissue interfaces or motion artifacts due to peristalsis or pulsatile flow.
