About this study

This study plans to include LARC patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy at this center, conducting PET/CT and PET/MR examinations before treatment, and PET/MR examinations before surgery after neoadjuvant therapy. The changes in the lesion before and after treatment will be compared to evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy, including: the relief situation of the rectal primary lesion ; lymph node metastasis; local infiltration around the tumor; peritoneal and other distant metastases , etc. The pathological relief diagnosed by surgical pathology is the gold standard, and the predictive efficacy of PET/MR will be evaluated, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI PET/MR, and comparing with traditional PET/CT and rectal MRI to explore the value of PET/MRI in predicting the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy in LARC patients.

Being tested
18F-FDG PET/CT and PET/MR scan, 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT and PET/MR scan

What participants receive

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

  • 18F-FDG PET/CT and PET/MR scan, 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT and PET/MR scanDiagnostic test

    Patients with Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer underwent 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT and PET/MR scan after injection of 0.02 to 0.04 mCi/Kg×patient weight (Kg). Within 1 week before and after the examination, 18F-FDG PET/CT and PET/MR is completed.

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 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
