Intraoperative Detection of Lesions Using PET (Positron Emission Tomography) Probe During Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery for Recurrent Ovarian, Fallopian Tube and Primary Peritoneal Cancer

The purpose of this study is to see if Positron Emission Tomography (PET) probes make it easier for your surgeon to find cancer and remove it during your surgery. A PET probe is a wandlike device that can detect radioactivity.

Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Pathologically proven diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal not to include tumors of low malignant potential (all stage, grade, and histology)
  • First recurrence
  • Platinum sensitive as defined by disease free interval ≥ 6 months
  • Radiological evidence of recurrent disease on preoperative PET/diagnostic CT
  • Planned surgical secondary cytoreduction via laparotomy
  • >18 years old

Exclusion criteria

  • Secondary cytoreduction via laparoscopy or robotically assisted laparoscopy
  • Tumors of low malignant potential
  • Beyond first recurrence
  • With the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer, subjects with other invasive malignancies, who had (or have) any evidence of the other cancer present within the last 5 years, are excluded
  • Active infection requiring parenteral antibiotics
  • For subjects with diabetes mellitus, a blood sugar will be checked preoperatively and must be <200 for participation in the study

Treatment and study plan

Positron Emission Tomography

Procedure

18F-Fluoro-2-deoxy-D-lucose

Radiation

cytoreductive surgery

Procedure

Primary outcomes

  1. Sensitivity

    Time frame: 2 years

    of detection of lesions with PET probes compared to preoperative FDG18F-FDG PET and standard intraoperative examination. Sensitivity is defined as the percent of lesions that were found with malignant disease divided by the number of lesions with true presence of malignant disease based on the pathology report. A higher sensitivity will indicate a higher number of lesions found with the respective technique thus providing an initial estimate of the incremental benefit of the PET probe as opposed to the other techniques
