About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine the pharmacokinetics, dosimetry, tolerance, tumor detection rate of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 in patient with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

Read the detailed description

This study is design to prospectively investigate the safety and efficacy of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 in the early diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The specific objectives are the determination of pharmacokinetics, dosimetry, tolerance and tumor detection rate of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 in patient with PDAC. Neurotensin receptor 1 (NTR-1) is the high affinity receptor of Neurotensin (NT), which was found abnormal expression in the early stages of PDAC malignant cell transformation. 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 as a new NTR-1 targeted probe was prepared and showed good uptake on PDAC cell line and animal studies. The study intends to recruit 6 PDAC volunteers to participate in the experiment. Patients were evaluated with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG). And then all patients underwent a single-injection with 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3, dual-modality imaging protocol consisting of a PET/CT and subsequent PET/MR scan. The follow-up period was followed up to assess safety and effectiveness.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3Radiation

    In this study, all patients will receive one injection of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3, a PET radiopharmaceutical selective for neurotensin receptor 1 (NTR-1). For the injection, subjects will receive a target dose of 2-4 MBq per kg of body weight as a bolus injection. 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 injection will be followed by a 10 ml saline flush.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis and staging

    The presence of non-physiological uptake or uptake in a tissue structure can be considered pathological. The signal intensity of PET indicates the presence and density of NTR-1 in the tissue. The lesion intake is higher than the liver and is classified as clearly positive. The lesion and the surrounding normal tissue ROI, measure the SUV, and calculate the T/B ratio.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. NTR-1 receptor expression by histology compared to tracer uptake

    Pathological detection of NTR-1 receptor expression in patients' lesions and compared to tracer uptake by PET/CT/MR.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Safety and Tolerability Profile Measured by Adverse Events (AEs)

    Safety and tolerability profile for the administration of 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 and positron emission tomography (PET) scanning are measured by number of participants with adverse events (AEs).

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 68Ga-DOTA-NT-20.3 in people with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma, run by Nanjing First Hospital, Nanjing Medical University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis and staging (time frame: 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Sep 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
