89Zr-DFO*-Trastuzumab PET in Patients With Gastric or Breast Cancer - a Pilot Study
Sponsor: Amsterdam UMC, location VUmc
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new PET tracer in patients with HER2-positive breast or gastric cancer. This tracer is made of radioactively labeled trastuzumab, and can show where HER2 is present in the body using a PET-scan. For this research, the investigators make PET-scans in people with HER2-positive, metastasized breast- or gastric cancer. The investigators will investigate if the new HER2-tracer correctly shows all tumor lesions. In the future, this method may be useful to help predict who will benefit from certain HER2-directed therapies. Participants will be injected with the radioactive tracer once. After injection, participants will undergo 3 PET-scans. Each PET-scan will take a maximum of 60 minutes. The PET-scans are on separate days within a week after injection of the tracer (e.g. 1 day, 2 days and 4 days after injection). Furthermore, the investigators will take 7 blood samples (5 mL each). Participants are not required to stay at the hospital. The first 3 participants will undergo an extra PET-scan 1 - 2 hours after injection. The amount of radioactivity injected will be 37 MBq (± 10%).

89Zr-DFO*-trastuzumab PET scan
Patients will be administered 37 MBq 89Zr-DFO\*-trastuzumab and undergo 3 PET scans on the total body PET scanner at day 1, day 2 and day 4 post-injection (p.i.). The first 3 patients will undergo an additional PET 1-2 h p.i. for dosimetry purposes. Three scans are needed for PK modelling and day 4 p.i. is chosen because it is the same time point as in historical controls. Blood samples for (radioactive) PK analysis will be taken at 10 min, 30 min, 1 h and 2 h p.i., and at every PET scan.
