NCT03868020

Brief Summary

This early phase I trial studies how well fluciclovine F18 positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) works in identifying the origin of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in patients with cancer that has spread to the cervical lymph nodes. Fluciclovine F18 during a PET/CT scan may work better in helping doctors learn where the cancer started (called the site of origin) and directing treatment planning compared to standard fludeoxyglucose F-18 (FDG) PET-CT scans.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of the suspected lesions that are positive by the gold standard of pathology

    Positive predicative values will be estimated with a corresponding exact 95% confidence interval.

    Up to 2 years

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Lesion to background (L/B) ratios for nodal metastatic disease

    Up to 2 years

  • Sensitivity and specificity in detecting nodal disease

    Up to 2 years

Study Arms (1)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adults with biopsy proven metastatic cervical nodal squamous cell carcinoma
  • CT of the neck with contrast that does not confidently identify a primary oropharyngeal site of disease
  • Planned standard of care 18F-FDG PET CT examination
  • Planned standard of care exam under anesthesia with oropharyngeal surgical biopsy

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant women
  • Known allergy to FDG, fluciclovine, or iodine-based contrast agents
  • Severe renal dysfunction (glomerular filtrate rate \[within 30 days\] less than 30)
  • Inability to tolerate lying supine, relatively motionless for up to 1 hour
