Molecular Imaging of Gastrin Releasing Peptide Receptors Using Labeled Technetium-99m DB8

The overall goal is to study the effectiveness of SPECT imaging prostate cancer and breast cancer patients Using technetium-99m labeled DB8.

Phase I of the study:

Biodistribution of 99mTc-DB8 in patients with prostate cancer and breast cancer.

The main objectives of the study:

• To evaluate the distribution of 99mTc-DB8 in normal tissues and tumors in patients with prostate cancer and breast cancer at different time intervals.
• To evaluate dosimetry of 99mTc-DB8 based on the pharmacokinetic parameters of the drug after a single intravenous administration.
• To study the safety of use and tolerability of the drug 99mTc-DB8 after a single intravenous administration in a diagnostic dosage.

Additional research tasks:

• To conduct a comparative analysis of the diagnostic information obtained in the visualization of prostate cancer and breast cancer by SPECT using 99mTc-DB8 with data obtained by CT and/or MRI and/or ultrasound examination and immunohistochemical (IHC) research of postoperative material.

Methodology:

Open-label, exploratory, single centre study. The subjects will receive a single injection of the labeled tracer.
