Exploratory Study Evaluating the Interest of PET to 18F-Fludarabine for the Initial Assessment and End-treatment Evaluation of Patients With Symptomatic Multiple Myeloma in the First Line of Treatment, Not Candidates for Marrow Autograft

Overview

The objective of this exploratory study is to evaluate, for the first time, the sensitivity of 18F-Fludarabine to the initial diagnosis of MM compared to FDG-PET and MRI. The interest of this molecule will also be investigated as part of the end-of-treatment therapeutic evaluation.

Interventions

  • Drug 18F-Fludarabine
    Two PET with 18F-Fludarabine : one at Baseline, the second one at the end of treatment of myeloma

Primary outcome measures

  • Detection of sensitivity of the lesions (osseous and extra-osseous) of 18Fludarabine PET (FludaTEP) [Time frame: Before treatment]
Secondary outcome measures (6)
  • To evaluate the specificity and the positive and negative predictive values of the FludaTEP for the initial assessment through an optimal reading mode. [Time frame: Before treatment]
  • To evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of the FludaTEP for the initial balance according to the local reading [Time frame: Before treatment]
  • To evaluate the prognostic impact of FDG-PET and FludaTEP on the number of lesions detected by each imaging technique in a population of MM patients in the 1st line therapeutic but not candidates for marrow autograft. [Time frame: After treatment]
  • To evaluate the prognostic impact of FludaTEP on the initial assessment and for the end-of-treatment therapeutic evaluation [Time frame: Before and After treatment]
  • Evaluate in a population of MM patients the existence of a correlation between the 18Fludarabine and FDG uptake intensities [Time frame: Before and After treatment]
  • Evaluate in a population of MM patients the existence of a correlation between the 18Fludarabine and FDG uptake intensities and the cytogenetic data Tolerance to 18F-Fludarabine [Time frame: Before and After treatment]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Symptomatic MM in the first line in patients who are not candidates for autologous bone marrow transplantation.
  • Patients eligible for one of the treatments considered as standard in a patient who is not eligible for autograft, according to ESMO's European recommendations

  • Patient affiliated with a social insurance scheme
  • The patient must understand and voluntarily sign the informed consent form
  • Women of childbearing potential must have a serum pregnancy test (performed within 2 days before each PET scan.)
  • Women of childbearing potential must use an effective contraceptive method throughout the course of the study and for 30 days after the last PET.
  • Male patients (vasectomised or not) with a pregnant partner or a partner of childbearing potential must use a condom and a spermicide until 90 days after the last PET.
  • HIV serology known to be negative
  • Karnofsky ≥ 70 or ECOG 0-1
