Brief Summary

The CXC chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4), which is a G protein-coupled receptor expressed on the surface of the cell membrane, contributes to the development and progression of malignancies and functional endocrine disorders. CXCR4 expression has been reported to be upregulated in aldosterone-producing adenomas and cortisol-producing adenomas; however, its expression is almost negligible in non-functioning adrenal adenomas. Besides, CXCR4 is also hardly expressed by the tumor cells in paragangliomas. 68Ga-pentixafor, a CXCR4-specific PET tracer, may therefore be effective for the evaluation of the functional lateralization of adrenal lesion and identification of functional adrenocortical adenomas. In this pilot study, we aimed to develop 68Ga-pentixafor PET/CT as a noninvasive test for the recognition of functional adrenocortical lesions and to help guide the management of patients with suspicious adrenal masses.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The diagnosis efficiency

    The diagnosis efficiency of functional lateralization and identification of functional adrenocortical adenomas

    through study completion, an average of 2 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Standard uptake value (SUV)

    From right after tracer injection to 2-hours post-injection

Study Arms (1)

68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT scan

EXPERIMENTAL

Intravenous Inject 68Ga-Pentixafor and perform PET/CT scan 1h later.

Diagnostic Test: Gallium-68 Pentixafor PET/CT

Interventions

Intravenous injection of one dosage of 74-222 MBq (2-6 mCi) Gallium-68 Pentixafor. Tracer doses of Gallium-68 Pentixafor will be used to image adrenal lesions by PET/CT.

68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT scan
