Biodistribution in mice with subcutaneous LS174T tumors at 24, 48 and 72 hours after injection of 30 μg of [111In]In-DTPA-SGM-101.

Purpose:Intraoperative image guidance may aid in clinical decision-making during surgical treatment of colorectal cancer. We developed the dual-labeled carcinoembryonic antigen–targeting tracer, [111In]In-DTPA-SGM-101, for pre- and intraoperative imaging of colorectal cancer. Subsequently, we investigated the tracer in preclinical biodistribution and multimodal image-guided surgery studies, and assessed the clinical feasibility on patient-derived colorectal cancer samples, paving the way for rapid clinical translation.Experimental Design:SGM-101 was conjugated with p-isothiocyanatobenzyl–diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) and labeled with Indium-111 (111In). The biodistribution of 3, 10, 30, and 100 μg [111In]In-DTPA-SGM-101 was assessed in a dose escalation study in BALB/c nude mice with subcutaneous LS174T human colonic tumors, followed by a study to determine the optimal timepoint for imaging. Mice with intraperitoneal LS174T tumors underwent micro-SPECT/CT imaging and fluorescence image–guided resection. In a final translational experiment, we incubated freshly resected human tumor specimens with the tracer and assessed the tumor-to-adjacent tissue ratio of both signals.Results:The optimal protein dose of [111In]In-DTPA-SGM-101 was 30 μg (tumor-to-blood ratio, 5.8 ± 1.1) and the optimal timepoint for imaging was 72 hours after injection (tumor-to-blood ratio, 5.1 ± 1.0). In mice with intraperitoneal tumors, [111In]In-DTPA-SGM-101 enabled preoperative SPECT/CT imaging and fluorescence image–guided resection. After incubation of human tumor samples, overall fluorescence and radiosignal intensities were higher in tumor areas compared with adjacent nontumor tissue (P < 0.001).Conclusions:[111In]In-DTPA-SGM-101 showed specific accumulation in colorectal tumors, and enabled micro-SPECT/CT imaging and fluorescence image–guided tumor resection. Thus, [111In]In-DTPA-SGM-101 could be a valuable tool for preoperative SPECT/CT imaging and intraoperative radio-guided localization and fluorescence image–guided resection of colorectal cancer.

Purpose In this exploratory study, the effect of postprocedural flushing with crystalloids after oxaliplatin-based hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) on platinum concentrations in peritoneal tissue, blood, and drain fluid was studied. Interpatient variability in oxaliplatin pharmacokinetics and the relation between platinum concentration in peritoneal fluid and platinum exposure in tissue and blood was explored. Methods Ten patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal origin were treated with HIPEC including postprocedural flushing, followed by ten patients without flushing afterwards. Tissue, peritoneal fluid, blood, and drain fluid samples were collected for measurement of total and ultrafiltered platinum concentrations. Results Peritoneal tissue concentration and systemic ultrafiltered platinum exposure showed large inter individual variability, ranging from 65 to 1640 µg/g dry weight and 10.5 to 28.0 µg*h/ml, respectively. No effect of flushing was found on geometric mean platinum concentration in peritoneal tissue (348 vs. 356 µg/g dry weight), blood (14.8 vs. 18.1 µg*h/ml), or drain fluid (day 1: 7.6 vs. 7.7 µg/ml; day 2: 1.7 vs. 1.9 µg/ml). The platinum concentration in peritoneal fluid at the start of HIPEC differed twofold between patients and was positively correlated with systemic exposure (p = .04) and peak plasma concentration (p = .04). Conclusion In this exploratory study, no effect was found for postprocedural flushing on platinum concentrations in peritoneal tissue, blood, or drain fluid. BSA-based HIPEC procedure leads to large interpatient variability in platinum exposure in all compartments. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov on 7 December 2017 under registration number NCT03364907.

Contains fulltext : 218875.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) Myxofibrosarcoma(MFS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma(STS) in elderly patients. Surgical resection remains the main treatment modality but tumor borders can be difficult to delineate with conventional clinical methods. Incomplete resections are a common problem and local recurrence remains a clinical issue. A technique that has shown great potential in improving surgical treatment of solid tumors is tumor targeted imaging and image-guided surgery with near-infrared fluorescence. To facilitate this technique, it is essential to identify a biomarker that is highly and homogenously expressed on tumor cells, while being absent on healthy non-malignant tissue. The purpose of this study was to identify suitable molecular targets for tumor-targeted imaging of myxofibrosarcoma. Ten potential molecular targets for tumor targeted imaging were investigated with immunohistochemical analysis in myxofibrosarcoma tissue (n = 34). Results were quantified according to the immunoreactive score(IRS). Moderate expression rates were found for uPAR, PDGFRa and EMA/MUC1. High expression rates of VEGF and TEM1 were seen. Strong expression was most common for TEM1 (88.2%). These results confirms that TEM1 is a suitable target for tumor-targeted imaging of myxofibrosarcoma.

Introduction: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (CT) for locally advanced colon cancer (LACC) could potentially lead to tumor shrinkage, eradication of micrometastases, and prevention of tumor cell shedding during surgery. This retrospective study investigates the surgical and oncological outcomes of preoperative CT for LACC. Methods: Using the Netherlands Cancer Registry, data of patients with stage II or III colon cancer, diagnosed between 2008 and 2016 was collected. A propensity score matching (PSM; 1:2) was performed and compared patients with clinical tumor (cT) 4 colon cancer who were treated with neoadjuvant CT to patients with cT4 colon cancer treated with adjuvant CT (Fig. 1). Results: A total of 192 patients treated with neoadjuvant CT were compared to 1,954 patients that received adjuvant CT. After PSM, 149 patients in the neoadjuvant group were compared to 298 patients in the control group. No significant differences were found in baseline characteristics after PSM. After neoadjuvant CT, a significant response was observed in 13 (9%) patients with 5 (4%) patients showing a complete response. Complete resection margins (R0) were achieved in 77% in the neoadjuvant group versus 86% in the adjuvant treated group (p = 0.037). Significantly less tumor positive lymph nodes were found in the neoadjuvant group (median 0 vs. 2, p < 0.001). Major complication rates and 5-year overall survival did not differ between both groups (67–65%, p = 0.87). Conclusion: Neoadjuvant CT seems safe and feasible with similar long-term survival compared to patients who are treated with adjuvant CT.

TPS4119 Background: Successful treatment of patients with colorectal peritoneal carcinomatosis highly depends on complete surgical tumor resection of all tumor. Oncological outcomes can potentially be improved by intraoperative imaging using a tumor-targeting antibody conjugated to a fluorophore and a radiotracer. This enables preoperative radionuclide imaging, real-time intraoperative fluorescence imaging and gamma detection. In this study we investigate the feasibility, accuracy and safety of CEA-targeted preoperative SPECT/CT and intraoperative fluorescence imaging in patients with colorectal PC. Methods: In this phase I/II single arm protein dose escalation study patients with peritoneal metastases of colorectal origin who are scheduled for cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC will receive an intravenous injection of the CEA-targeting tracer 111In-DOTA-labetuzumab-IRDye800CW. The first 15 patients will receive a single dose of 2,10 or 50 mg 6 to 7 days prior to surgery. Four to five days after injection SPECT/CT imaging of the thorax and abdomen is performed to determine intra-abdominal tumor load and detect extra-abdominal metatases. At day 6/7 after injection, standard cytoreductive surgical resection extended with real-time near-infrared fluorescence imaging and radio guidance is performed. After surgery, the peritoneal cavity will be re-examined for residual disease with fluorescence imaging. Resected specimens are analyzed microscopically, immunohistochemically (CEA and H&E) and by gamma counting. Blood samples are drawn for farmacokinetics and safety analysis at 180 minutes, 4 days, 6 days and 3 weeks after tracer injection. In the phase II dose expansion cohort, 14 more patients will receive the optimal dose as determined in the phase I trial. The primary objectives of the trial are to assess the safety, feasibility and accuracy of preoperative SPECT/CT and intraoperative fluorescence imaging after administration of 111In- labetuzumab-IRDye800CW in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal origin who will undergo cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. The secondary objectives are to assess whether additional malignant lesions can be visualized by fluorescence imaging after cytoreductive surgery, to assess the intensity of fluorescence in malignant and non-malignant tissue, to assess the correlation between localization of the dual-labeled antibody and CEA expression in tumor and healthy tissue and to determine blood concentrations of the dual labelled antibody at several time points in patients.
