Brief Summary
This is a monocentric prospective study. This study aims to investigate the prognostic value of the novel melanin-targeted imaging modality 18F-PFPN PET in patients with melanoma and seek independent prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). The patients with clinically highly suspected or confirmed melanoma who underwent 18F-PFPN and 18F-FDG PET scans will be enrolled consecutively. Patients' PET images, clinical characteristics, and follow-up information will be collected for prognostic analyses. This study plans to set the sample size as 100 cases.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Progression-free Survival (PFS)
PFS time is calculated from the date of PET imaging to the first recurrence/progression or death or the endpoint of follow-up. The disease recurrence/progression is confirmed after a thorough review of following-up imaging or pathologic findings.
1-2 years
Overall Survival (OS)
OS time is defined as the time from PET imaging to death or the endpoint of follow-up.
1-2 years
Study Arms (2)
18F-PFPN PET imaging
For clinically suspected or confirmed melanoma patients, targeted melanin-specific imaging 18F-PFPN PET/MR was performed. CT was instead when MRI was contraindicated. PET images, clinical characteristics, and follow-up information will be collected for prognostic analyses.
18F-FDG PET imaging
For clinically suspected or confirmed melanoma patients, general metabolic imaging 18F-FDG PET PET/CT was performed. PET images, clinical characteristics, and follow-up information will be collected for prognostic analyses.
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with clinically highly suspected or confirmed melanoma underwent 18F-PFPN and 18F-FDG PET scans in the PET center.
You may qualify if:
- Patients with histopathologically confirmed melanoma;
- Patients with complete clinical and follow-up data (including TNM stage, subtypes, and treatment strategies).
You may not qualify if:
- Uncertain histopathology;
- A history of other malignancies.
