NCT02899533

Brief Summary

In this study positron emission tomography (PET/CT) imaging will be used to evaluate evaluation of estrogen receptor heterogeneity and functionality in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) using the investigational radiotracer \[18F\]fluoroestradiol (FES).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluate [18F]FES uptake in patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) before and after initiation of fulvestrant.

    Patients will have a baseline FES PET/CT scan prior to the initiation of fulvestrant and a second FES PET/CT scan 9 weeks after the initiation of fulvestrant.

    Change from Baseline [18F]FES uptake at 9 weeks.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • FES uptake and change with treatment

    baseline

  • Change in FES compared to change in hematopoietic progenitor cells

    2 years

  • Change in FES compared to change in hormone levels

    2 years

  • Change in FES compared to change in NT-proBNP

    2 years

  • Change in FES compared to change in plasma biomarkers

    2 years

Study Arms (1)

FES PET/CT scan

All subjects will receive an \[18F\]FES PET/CT scan.

Drug: [18F] FES

Interventions

\[18F\] FES PET/CT scan, imaging tracer

Also known as: [18F]fluoroestradiol
FES PET/CT scan

You may qualify if:

  • \. Women who are post-menopausal, defined as one of the following
  • \> 50 years old and a) have not menstruated during the preceding 12 months per medical record review or self-report or b) have follicle-stimulating hormone levels \> 40 IU/L at screening OR
  • \< 50 years and follicle-stimulating hormone levels \> 40 IU/L at screening OR
  • history of bilateral oophorectomy per medical record review or self-report.
  • \. Diagnosis of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) per medical record review.
  • \. Patients must be candidates to receive treatment on the companion therapeutic trial "Estrogen Receptor-α Inhibitor in Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (ERA PAH)" (IRB# 824861 "ERA PAH")
  • \. Participants must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and be willing to provide written informed consent and participate in this study in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines prior to study-specific procedures.

You may not qualify if:

  • \. Inability to tolerate imaging procedures in the opinion of an investigator or treating physician
  • \. Serious or unstable medical or psychological conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the subject's safety or successful participation in the study.
  • \. Ineligible for the therapeutic trial IRB# 824861 "ERA PAH" entitled "Estrogen Receptor Antagonist in Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (ERA PAH)" (IRB# 824861 "ERA PAH")
