The Investigators Will Evaluate the Diagnostic Performance of [18F]-AlF-FAPI-74 PET/CT in Inflammatory Disorders and Compare it With the Current Gold Standard for Inflammation, FDG PET/CT, in Three Patient Cohort: Patients Presenting With Fever of Unknown Origin, IgG4-RD and AxSpA.

Официальное название

Prospective Diagnostic Performance of PET/CT Using the Novel Fibroblast Imaging Tracer [18F]-AlF-FAPI-74 Versus Standard of Care [18F]-FDG in Inflammatory Disorders

Обзор

The aim of the study to evaluate the performance of new \[18F\]-AlF-FAPI-74 PET/CT in three inflammatory disorders (fever of unknown origin, IgG4-related disease and axial spondyloarthritis) and compare with the current stand-of-care \[18F\]-FDG PET/CT

Вмешательства

• Диагностический тест [18F]AlF-FAPI-74 PET/CT
  A \[18F\]AlF-FAPI-74 PET/CT will be performed at the same site of the screening visit (UZ Leuven). The patient will get an IV line, through which the \[18F\]AlF-FAPI-74 will be injected in one bolus (3,5 MBq/kg). After 60 minutes, the acquisition on the PET/CT scan will take place. The CT will be a low dose CT with oral contrast. After the scan, participants will be observed at the department in case of adverse events. If the patient receives therapy (for IgG4-RD and AxSpA), a second \[18F\]AlF-

Inclusion Criteria FUO:

• An illness of more than 3 weeks' duration,
• Temperature exceeding 38.3°C on > 3 occasions, or elevated inflammatory markers on > 3 occasions

Inclusion criteria IgG4-RD:

• High clinical suspicion of IgG4-RD by an experienced clinician of Internal Medicine, based on anamnesis, physical examination, first-line investigations and blood tests.
• Patients with a new diagnosis of IgG4-RD on histopathology and need for further assessment of disease extent with PET/CT,
• Relapse of diagnosed IgG4-RD on histopathology according to an experienced clinician of Internal Medicine

Inclusion criteria AxSpA:

• High clinical suspicion of axial spondyloarthropahy according to an experienced rheumatology (based on inflammary back pain > 3 months, insidious onset, morning stifness, improvement with exercise and worsening in rest, pain worse at night, age at onset <45 years of age, imaging findings).
