Summary
This is a prospective, single center, single-arm clinical trial in 20 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing PD-1/PD-L1-directed therapy. This research is being done to find out if the radioactive compound called [18F]F-AraG is a helpful imaging agent for detecting changes in cancer's anti-tumor immune response (or activation of T-cell) levels for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who will receive a cancer immunotherapy regimen (immunotherapy works by encouraging the body's own immune system to attack the cancer cells).
Description
The purpose of this study is to find out how the radiotracer called [18F]F-AraG can help investigate changes in cancer's anti-tumor immune response (or activation of T-cell) levels during positron emission tomography (PET) scans. [18F]F-AraG has the potential to serve as a noninvasive imaging biomarker in the monitoring of T-cell mediated anti-tumor immune response following administration of an immunotherapeutic agent.
Participants in this study will have tests, exams and procedures that are for study purposes. Participants will be in this study up to one month which will include about three clinic visits.
A baseline [18F]F-AraG PET-CT will be obtained 0-7 days before a NSCLC patient receives PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy. A second [18F]F-AraG PET-CT will be performed 10-14 days after PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy is administered.
