Brief Summary
This prospective, single-center, double-blinded study investigates the biodistribution, dosimetry, safety, and diagnostic ability of Al18F-NOTA-LM3 in patients with well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors. And compares the diagnostic ability of Al18F-NOTA-LM3 with 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT. Clinical management will also be compared using different imaging modalities.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (7)
Safety of Al18F-NOTA-LM3
Adverse effects were recorded according to CTCAE (version 5.0) after radiotracer injection and PET scan.
From radiotracer injection to 24 hours post-injection.
Detection rate of Al18F-NOTA-LM3 on per-patient basis
Percentage of patients with lesions detected on Al18F-NOTA-LM3 PET/CT.
From study completion to 6 months after completion.
SUVmax of lesions detected on Al18F-NOTA-LM3 PET/CT
The tracer uptake is quantified using maximal standard uptake value (SUVmax) by drawing a 3-dimensional region of interest.
From study completion to 6 months after completion.
Detection rate of 68Ga-DOTATATE on per-patient basis
Percentage of patients with lesions detected on 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT.
From study completion to 6 months after completion.
SUVmax of lesions detected on 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT
The tracer uptake is quantified using maximal standard uptake value (SUVmax) by drawing a 3-dimensional region of interest.
From study completion to 6 months after completion.
Detection rate of 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 on per-patient basis
Percentage of patients with lesions detected on 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT.
From study completion to 6 months after completion.
SUVmax of lesions detected on 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT
The tracer uptake is quantified using maximal standard uptake value (SUVmax) by drawing a 3-dimensional region of interest.
From study completion to 6 months after completion.
Secondary Outcomes (2)
SUVmax of normal organs
From study completion to 6 months after completion.
Absorbed dose of target organs
From study completion to 6 months after completion.
Study Arms (2)
Arm A: Al18F-NOTA-LM3 and 68Ga-DOTATATE group
EXPERIMENTALPatients will perform an Al18F-NOTA-LM3 PET/CT as well as a 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT.
Arm B: Al18F-NOTA-LM3 and 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 group
EXPERIMENTALPatients will perform an Al18F-NOTA-LM3 PET/CT as well as a 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT.
Interventions
40 patients will be enrolled in this arm. The first enrolled 8 patients will undergo serial whole-body PET/CT scans at multiple time points (5, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 120 min) after injection of Al18F-NOTA-LM3. The following patients will undergo a whole-body PET/CT scan 60-120 minutes after injection.
All patients in arm A will undergo a whole-body PET/CT scan 40-60 minutes after injection of 68Ga-DOTATATE. 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and Al18F-NOTA-LM3 PET/CT should be performed within a week and the interval between the two scans at least 24h.
All patients in arm B will undergo a whole-body PET/CT scan 40-60 minutes after injection of 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3. 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT and Al18F-NOTA-LM3 PET/CT should be performed within a week and the interval between the two scans at least 24h.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients aged 18 to 80 years.
- Histologically proven, well-differentiated, NETs (G1 or G2).
- No long-acting somatostatin analog treatment within 4 weeks.
- No PRRT treatment within 8 weeks.
You may not qualify if:
- Combined with other types of tumors.
- Severe liver or renal dysfunction (ALT/AST≥5 ULN, GFR\<30ml/min).
- Active infection.
- Pregnant or breast-feeding women.
- Inability to perform PET/CT scans.
