[68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46
DrugPatients undergo two PET/CTs with the experimental tracer [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 (drug).
NCT Number: NCT07215182
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the use of the tracer [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 for PET/CT-imaging in response evaluation of patients with advanced stage malignant melanoma treated with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy (ICT). The main question it aims to answer is:
• Can [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT improve response evaluation in patients suffering from advanced stage malignant melanoma treated with ICT and potentially serve as a biomarker.
Researchers will compare findings on the experimental [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT with findings on standard imaging ([18F]FDG PET/CT).
Participants will undergo:
* Two [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT scans: one before treatment initiation with ICT and one after three months. * Two blood samples * Passive follow-up 6 months after the last scan [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
Patients undergo two PET/CTs with the experimental tracer [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 (drug).
Time frame: From enrollment in the study (signed informed consent) to after the second [68Ga]Ga- FAPI PET/CT, estimated time is 3 months.
Specified malignant lesions will be defined and evaluated by a team of specialists on the baseline [68Ga]Ga- FAPI PET/CT scan and the uptake of the FAPI tracer in the lesions will be quantified. The evaluation of the malignant lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI PET/CT will also be compared with a similar lesion evaluation on the [18F]FDG PET/CT (standard imaging). The FAPI-uptake will be reassessed after 12 weeks of ICT by the same team of specialists. Changes in uptake of malignant lesions after 12 weeks of ICT on the [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT will be compared to changes on the [18F]FDG PET/CT and the clinical response. The clinical response will be assessed using the patients' medical record.
Time frame: From enrollment in the study (signed informed consent) to the end of the follow-up (6 months after the second [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT, estimated time in total is 9 months from signed informed consent).
Tracer-uptake in healthy tissue and benign lesions on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT will be evaluated using the same method as described in "Primary Objectives". A similar evaluation of standard [18F]FDG PET/CT will be performed. FAPI-uptake in healthy tissue on [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT will be compared to the findings on [18F]FDG PET/CT. To verify the [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT assessment (including evaluation of healthy tissue, malignant lesions and benign lesions), the assessment will be compared to the findings from a composed reference standard. This consist of all available imaging, biopsy results, blood tests, and information on hospitalization and changes in patient management up to 6 months after the [68Ga]Ga-FAPI PET/CT.
Time frame: From enrollment in the study (signed informed consent) to the end of the follow-up (6 months after the second [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT, estimated time in total is 9 months from signed informed consent).
Blood samples from the included participants will be analyzed by Nordic Bioscience- Results from this analysis will be correlated to the disease activity evaluated on the [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT. Results from the serum blood sample analysis will also be correlated with treatment outcome after 6 months of treatment. Treatment outcome will be defined using the RECIST criteria (40). This analysis will be done retrospectively on routine clinical scans ([18F]FDGPET/CT). The updated guideline and definitions of the RECIST criteria will be used.
