[99mTc]3PRGD2 for integrin receptor imaging of esophageal cancer: a comparative study with [18F]FDG PET/CT
摘要： Objectives This study was designed to investigate the efficacy of 99mtechnetium-three polyethylene glycol spacers-arginine–glycine–aspartic acid ([99mTc]3PRGD2) in the evaluation of patients with esophageal cancer. Methods Twenty-nine patients with a suspected esophageal lesion and for whom definite pathological diagnosis was finally obtained were recruited. Whole-body planar scanning and chest single-photon-emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) were performed at 30 and 40?min, respectively, after intravenous injection of 11.1?MBq/kg of [99mTc]3PRGD2. 2-Deoxy-2-[18F] fluoro-d-glucose ([18F]FDG) positron-emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) was performed in 1?week. The tumor-to-background ratio (T/B) and the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) were calculated for semi-quantitative and quantitative analyses. Integrin αvβ3 was analyzed through immunohistochemistry. Results The T/B, SUVmax and expression of integrin αvβ3 in malignant lesions were higher than those in benign lesions (t = 3.691, P = 0.001; t = 8.271, P = 0.000; t = 3.632, P = 0.001, respectively). There was a significant correlation between T/B and SUVmax in esophageal lesions (r = 0.660, P = 0.000). The expression of integrin αvβ3 was correlated with [99mTc]3PRGD2 uptake (r = 0.782, P = 0.000). In visual analysis, the sensitivity and accuracy of the whole-body planar RGD scan were lower than those of the chest SPECT/CT RGD scan and the [18F]FDG PET/CT scan (x2 = 6.769, P = 0.022). The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the chest SPECT/CT RGD scan were similar to those of the [18F] FDG PET/CT scan. In semi-quantitative analysis, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of chest SPECT/CT RGD from the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis were 87%, 100% and 94%, respectively [cutoff = 3.1 of T/B, area under the curve (AUC) = 0.957]. Thirteen patients (30 lymph nodes) and 16 patients (105 lymph nodes) were suspected to have lymph node metastases based on the RGD and FDG scans, respectively. Conclusion This prospective study demonstrated that [99mTc]3PRGD2 imaging is valuable for the diagnosis and staging of esophageal cancer. It may be less sensitive than [18F]FDG imaging for detecting metastatic lesions in small lymph nodes. The T/B value was correlated with the expression of integrin αvβ3.

685PA MULTICENTER PHASE II STUDY OF SALVAGE PHOTODYNAMIC THERAPY USING TALAPORFIN SODIUM AND A DIODE LASER FOR LOCAL FAILURE OF ESOPHAGEAL CANCER AFTER CHEMORADIOTHERAPY
摘要： We previously reported that photodynamic therapy (PDT) has a potential to cure local failure after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for esophageal cancer (EC). However, first-generation PDT using porfimer sodium and an excimer dye laser has several problems: a high occurrence of skin phototoxicity, the requirement of a long light shielding period (6 weeks), and the need for an expensive and large laser generator. Talaporfin sodium (Laserphyrin?) is a second-generation photosensitizer that requires a shorter light shielding period (2 weeks) and induces less phototoxicity. We previously identified the optimum diode laser fluence (100 J/cm2) for PDT using talaporfin sodium in the phase I/IIA study. Therefore, in the present study, we conducted a multicenter phase IIB study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PDT using talaporfin sodium as a salvage treatment for local failure after CRT or radiotherapy (RT) for EC. (UMIN000009184).

PS02.062: CONFOCAL LASER ENDOMICROSCOPY IN THE ASSESSMENT OF PERSISTENT/RECURRENT INTESTINAL METAPLASIA/NEOPLASIA AFTER ENDOSCOPIC TREATMENT OF BORN
摘要： Recent studies revealed that membrane proteins, such as ion transporters, are specifically activated in cancer stem cells (CSCs). Therefore, these molecules are receiving a great attention as new chemotherapeutic targets of malignant tumor. This study aimed to investigate the expression and activity of ion transport-related molecules in CSCs of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

Effect and mechanism of ZrO <sub/>2</sub> doping on the cracking behavior of melt‐grown Al <sub/>2</sub> O <sub/>3</sub> ceramics prepared by directed laser deposition
摘要： Photodynamic therapy (PDT), a treatment of choice for cancer, induces a photochemical reaction, thereby eradicating tumor cells. This is achieved through the administration of a photosensitizer drug, which is activated with a laser after localization to the tumor mass, and is an approved curative endoscopic ablative treatment for superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in Japan. PDT has been approved for dysplastic Barrett’s esophagus and as a palliative treatment for patients with symptomatic obstructive esophageal cancer in US. However, its adverse events and complicated procedure and the development of alternative endoscopic procedures such as endoscopic submucosal dissection, radiofrequency ablation and cryotherapy, have largely limited the practice of PDT in esophageal cancer worldwide. Recently, owing to the invention of second-generation PDT using talaporfin sodium and diode laser, PDT can be performed with less phototoxicity and therefore has regained popularity in the treatment of ESCC. As a salvage treatment for patients with local failure after chemoradiotherapy (CRT), PDT has shown promising complete response with less phototoxicity and shorter sun shade period. In addition, the efficacy and safety of PDT in patients with local failure of ESCC after CRT were shown in several clinical trials. The direction of the study interest of the next-generation PDT is the safety and potential expansion of the indications for its application in the future. This review covers the PDT for the treatment of ESCC and dysplastic Barrett’s esophagus, with special focus on the role of PDT in practice for esophageal cancer.

Radiobiological Modeling Based on 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography Data for Esophageal Cancer
摘要： Background: We investigated the relationship of standardized uptake values (SUVs) to radiobiological parameters, such a 25 s tumor control probability (TCP), to allow for quantitative prediction of tumor response based on SUVs from 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) before and after treatment for esophageal cancer. Methods: We analyzed data from 20 esophageal cancer patients treated with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery. Tumor pathologic response to CRT was assessed in surgical specimens. Patients underwent 18F-FDG PET imaging before and after CRT. Rigid image registration was performed between both images. Because TCP in a heterogeneous tumor is a function of average cell survival, we modeled TCP as a function of <SUVR>, a possible surrogate for average cell survival (<SUVR>=<SUVafter/SUVbefore>). TCP was represented by a sigmoid function with two parameters: SUVR50, the <SUVR> at which TCP=0.5, and γ50, the slope of the curve at SUVR50. The two parameters and their confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using the maximum-likelihood method. The correlation between SUV before CRT and SUV change <SUVbefore – SUVafter> was also studied. Results: A TCP model as a function of SUV before and after treatment was developed for esophageal cancer patients. The maximum-likelihood estimate of SUVR50 was 0.47 (90% CI, 0.30-0.61) and for γ50was 1.62 (90% CI, 0-4.2). High initial SUV and larger metabolic response (larger <SUVbefore –SUVafter>) were correlated, and this correlation was stronger among responders. Conclusions: Our TCP model indicates that <SUVafter/SUVbefore> is a possible surrogate for cell survival in esophageal cancer patients. Although CIs are large as a result of the small patient sample, parameters for a TCP curve can be derived and an individualized TCP can be calculated for future patients. Initial SUV does not predict response, whereas a correlation is found between surrogates for initial tumor burden and cell kill during therapy.
