Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging With Zirconium-89 (89Zr)-Trastuzumab for Prediction of HER2 Targeted Therapy Effectiveness (NCT03321045)

PET Imaging With 89Zr-Trastuzumab for Prediction of HER2 Targeted Therapy Effectiveness

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Early Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: University of Alabama at Birmingham

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Our goal is to investigate the use of 89Zr-trastuzumab as a HER2 imaging agent to determine which patients are likely to respond to targeted HER2 agents as single agent therapy. We are proposing to perform a pilot study with goals of demonstrating the feasibility of imaging breast cancer patients with 89Zr-trastuzumab-PET/MRI, evaluating the relationship between tumor 89Zr-trastuzumab uptake and in vitro positivity of HER2, assessing the relationship between 89Zr-trastuzumab uptake and response to HER2 therapy.
