Abstract
Background Considering trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (Trop2) is overexpressed in a wide range of human epithelial cancers, it presents an attractive target for the diagnosis and treatment of multiple types of cancer. Herein, we have developed a Trop2-specific radiotracer, 68Ga-MY6349, and present a prospective, investigator-initiated trial to explore the clinical values of 68Ga-MY6349 PET/CT. Methods In this translational study, 90 patients with 15 types of cancer, who underwent 68Ga-MY6349 PET/CT, were enrolled prospectively. Among them, 78 patients underwent paired 68Ga-MY6349 and 18F-FDG PET/CT, and 12 patients with prostate cancer underwent paired 68Ga-MY6349 and 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT. Results Among the 90 patients across 15 types of cancer, 68Ga-MY6349 uptake in tumors was generally high but heterogeneous, varying among lesions, patients, and cancer types. Trop2 expression level determined by immunohistochemistry was highly correlated with 68Ga-MY6349 uptake at primary and metastatic tumor sites. 68Ga-MY6349 PET/CT showed higher tumor uptake (quantified by SUVmax) than 18F-FDG PET/CT in certain types of cancer, including breast (7.2 vs. 5.4, P < 0.001), prostate (9.2 vs. 3.0, P < 0.001), and thyroid cancers (8.5 vs. 3.7, P < 0.001). When compared with 68Ga-PSMA-11, 68Ga-MY6349 PET/CT exhibited comparable lesion uptake (12.2 vs. 12.5, P = 0.223) but a better tumor-to-background contrast (15.8 vs. 12.2, P < 0.001) for primary and metastatic prostate cancer, allowing visualization of more metastatic lesions. Conclusion 68Ga-MY6349 PET/CT is a non-invasive method for comprehensively assessing Trop2 expression in tumors, which can improve the diagnosis and staging for cancer patients, and aid in the decision-making for Trop2-targeted therapies and advancing personalized treatment.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
