PET Imaging of Cancer Patients Using 124I-PUH71: A Pilot Study
Sponsor: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Summary
The purpose of this study is to see how a new drug, named PUH71, accumulates in the different parts of the body \& inside tumors and how long PUH71 lasts in the blood, when given to study participants in tiny amounts. The results of this study will help researchers (1) plan how they will use PUH71 as an experimental new drug (at much-higher doses) for the treatment of cancer, in clinical trials; and (2) know whether PUH71 might be used as a drug for detecting tumors with scanner machines.

Interventions
PET Imaging using 124 IPUH71
A dose of up to 11.0 mCi (range: 4.0-11.0 mCi) of 124I-PUH71 will be administered intravenously with the patient at rest. 124I-PUH71 scans will be performed at immediately and/or 3-4 hours, 20-24 hours, and 40-80 hours after injection of the radiotracer. Optionally, in willing patients scans will be performed 160-200 hours (\~7-8 days) after injection of the radiotracer. At each time-point, a 45-60 minute axial body image is acquired. Images will be acquired on a state-of-the-art PET-CT scanner. A low-dose CT will be obtained immediately-prior to PET imaging, at each time-point. A 30-45 minute scanning timeperiod is typical for clinical PET studies.
