[F-18] FLT Background
 Recent advances in cancer treatment occurred in
the development of disease specific molecular
agents, many of which induce cell cycle arrest
(cytostatic effect) inhibiting cell proliferation and
tumor growth
Evaluating alterations in DNA metabolism may
reflect therapy response better than changes in
glucose utilization
FDG reflects tm proliferation only in part and
associated with FPs due to tracer retention in
inflammatory processes
[F-18] FLT Background
 FLT is a structural analog of
thymidine
Although FLT is not incorporated
into DNA, it is trapped in the cell
due to phosphorylation by TK
FLT PET enables non-invasive
imaging and quantification of the
tm proliferative fraction in
proportion to DNA synthesis rate
FLT PET can be used as an
imaging probe to assess in vivo
cellular proliferation in malignant
tumors, especially with targeted
drugs
Buck AK, Methods 2009: 48:205
[F-18] FLT Background
 Because of lower overall tm uptake and high bckg
activity in the liver and bone marrow, FLT is not expected
to have the same sensitivity as FDG for tumor detection
across all organs
 FLT-PET is considered a potentially powerful tool to
 provide additional diagnostic specificity for proliferating tissues
 Provide important biological info that could have implications in
treatment selection or monitoring

Preliminary Studies
proliferation dependent accumulation of FLT
Buck AK, Methods 2009: 48:205
The high cc’s observed between FLT uptake and Ki67 measurements implicate that
cellular uptake of FLT is predominantly caused by proliferative activity

Study Objective
Primary Objective:
To correlate the percentage change in SUVs
between baseline (FLT-1) and early-therapy
(FLT-2) with pCR (as a dichotoumous
variable) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy of
the primary tumor in patients with locally
advanced breast cancer (LABC)
Changed to early therapy from mid-therapy
Secondary Objectives
evaluate correlation or relationship between,
• FLT1 and FLT3 uptake parameters and proliferation markers
• FLT1, FLT2 and FLT3 uptake parameters and PCR of the primary tm and
residual cancer burden (RCB)
• FLT1, FLT2 and FLT3 uptake parameters and non-response of the primary
tm (SD or prog)
• FLT1, FLT2 and FLT3 uptake parameters and PCR to neoadjuvant in pts
with regional disease in the LNs
compare changes of,
• FLT2 and FLT3 uptake parameters to changes in tm sizes from other serial
imaging modalities (mammogram, MRI, and US, as available)
• FLT2 and FLT3 uptake parameters to metabolic changes from FDG PET,
as available
• monitor for potential safety issues and define any
physiologic effects associated with FLT administration

neoadjuvant chemo trials, which may also include
targeted agents, such as trastuzumab

hormonal therapy alone are not eligible

Study Procedures
Visit 1: Screening visit
-screening assessment will occur to determine eligibility
-signed consent form will be obtained prior to study trial
-CBC with differential and serum chemistry, and platelets.
-If data available from clinical records in the appropriate time window,
they need not be repeated for pre-study evaluation.
-medical history, demographics, height, weight, and PE
-tissue samples/slides from bx will be sent to VCU Pathology
Visit 2: FLT PET Imaging Studies (FLT1)
-baseline FLT PET scan; within 4 wks prior to chemo
Visit 3: FLT PET Imaging Studies (FLT2)
-early therapy FLT PET;5-10 dys after the initiation of 1st cycle
Visit 4: FLT PET Imaging Studies (FLT-3)
post therapy FLT PET;after chemo & within 3wks prior to surgery
Visit 5: Surgery
-After neoadjuvant chemo, surgical resection of residual tm
-A portion of residual tm sample/slides will be sent for to VCU Core Pathology for pathologic
analysis and proliferation assays within 2 wks post surgery
- If no viable tumor remains, a pCR will be documented
Imaging Sessions
 The participant will undergo [18F]FLT injection,
• immediately after injection a dynamic regional PET/CT imaging will
be done for 60 minutes
• dynamic imaging will be followed by a static whole body image from
top of head to upper thigh; 5-7 bed positions
• The preferred imaging sequence for the is to obtain the dynamic
PET imaging first, then followed by the torso survey using static
PET imaging, however, for patients who are unable to tolerate lying
in the scanner for dynamic imaging or for centers where scanner
availability/scheduling is limited, the acquisition of the SUV using
static PET imaging starting 60 minutes after injection fulfills the
needs of the study.

Pathologic Complete Response
 pCR is defined as the absence of viable invasive tumor at
histopathologic examination of the post-therapy surgical
specimen
 This analysis will be performed at the local treating site and
reviewed at the central site at VCU
 Presence of residual non-invasive cancer (DCIS) in the
absence of viable invasive cancer is still considered a pCR
 Dichotomous response assessment; pCR vs other than
pCR

A secondary related measure will also be assessed, the
residual cancer burden (RCB) which will be used for
secondary objectives (described in the protocol)
Clinical Response

Clinical Response as per routine by the treating physician
based upon the % change in anatomic tm size between the
pre, early-, and post-treatment time points

The assessment of size will be made per routine of the
treating physician and will typically be performed by one of
the following: PE, mammography, US, or breast MRI

The same method should be used consistently for each
patient throughout this study. The categorization of clinical
response is categorized as described in Table
Response Category
Complete Response (CR):
Criteria
Disappearance of the primary tumor
Partial Response (PR):
At least a 30% decrease in the LD of primary tm, from baseline LD
Progressive Disease (PD):
At least a 20% increase in the LD of primary tm, taking as
reference the smallest LD since treatment started
Stable Disease (SD):
Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor ncrease to qualify
for PD
