The Role of the Imaging FAPI PET/CT in Exploring the Microenvironment of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases
The Role of FAPI PET/CT in Exploring the Microenvironment of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases: Non-randomized Phase II Molecular Imaging Study
About This Trial
FAPI PET/CT molecular imaging represents a cutting-edge advancement in oncological imaging, particularly for the preoperative assessment of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Fibroblast activation protein inhibitors (FAPIs), which are the focus of this imaging modality, selectively target cancer-associated fibroblasts, a critical component of the tumor microenvironment. FAPI PET/CT could be useful in the detection of HGP (Histological Growth Pattern) and in the changes during neoadjuvant chemotherapy prior to surgery
Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)
Who May Qualify:
- Age above 18 years.
- Liver metastasis on standard imaging for the initial assessment (MRI, FDG PET/CT)
- Naïve for treatment or after neoadjuvant chemotherapy
- Scheduled for liver metastasis resection
- ECOG Performance status ≤2.
- Signed written willing to sign a consent form
Who Should NOT Join This Trial:
- Non-resectable liver metastases
- Pregnant and lactating women
- Subjects with another significant medical condition which, in the investigator's opinion, may interfere with the completion of the study.
Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
