摘要: 背景与目的: 18 F-FLT是一种细胞增殖的示踪剂。探索 18 F-FLT PET/CT对食管鳞癌根治性放(化)疗效果的预测价值。方法:对根治性放(化)疗的初治食管鳞癌患者,放疗前及放疗第4周行 18 F-FLT PET/CT扫描,记录原发灶的SUV max-T 、转移淋巴结的SUV max-N 等参数。随访患者总生存期(overall survival,OS)及无进展生存期(progression-free survival,PFS),分析PET/CT参数与患者预后的关系。结果:共入组39例患者,25例完成2次PET/CT扫描。 18 F-FLT的SUV max-T 由基线6.63下降到1.22,淋巴结SUV max-N 由3.69下降到1.84,但下比例与生存率无关。 18 F-FLT PET/CT的基线SUV max-N <5.00的患者,其OS明显高于SUV max-N ≥5.00的患者(P=0.002)。结论:对根治性放(化)疗食管鳞癌,治疗前的基线 18 F-FLT PET/CT的淋巴结SUV max-N 是一个较好的预测预后参数。放疗4周时,病灶在 18 F-FLT PET/CT扫描中的SUV值明显下降,但不能预测预后。

Abstract: Background and purpose:  18 F-FLT is a proliferative radiotracer. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of functional molecular image of  18 F-FLT PET/CT taken before and in the process of radiotherapy. Methods: Patients with newly diagnosed esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) were enrolled in the study. All patients received radiotherapy/chemoradiotherapy. The planned dose was 61.2 Gy and 1.8 Gy per fraction respectively. The concurrent chemotherapy was platinum, paclitaxel or fluoropyrimidine based. Patients were examined by PET with  18 F-fluoro-30-deoxy-30-L-fluorothymidine (FLT) at baseline and 4 weeks after treatment initiation. The overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were followed up. The SUV maximum (SUV max ) of primary tumor and positive nodes were recorded. PET/CT findings were analyzed for the correlation with clinical response of patients and survival. Results: Thirty-nine patients were enrolled in the study, among whom 25 patients completed two planned PET/CT. Patients with SUV max-N ≥5.00 had worse OS (P=0.002) and PFS (P=0.01) than those with SUV max-N <5.00. The SUV max of both primary tumor and lymph nodes significantly decreased in the interim scan compared to the baseline scan in FLT PET/CT, but the relationship between the change of SUV max and prognosis seemed to be weak. Conclusion: Baseline SUV max of lymph node on  18 F-FLT PET/CT had prognostic value in patients with esophageal cancer undergoing radiotherapy/radiochemotherapy. The decrease of SUV max of tumor after 4 weeks’ radiotherapy couldn’t predict prognosis properly.
