摘要: 背景与目的:前列腺特异性膜抗原(prostate-specific membrane antigen,PSMA)在前列腺癌细胞表面特异性高表达,是前列腺癌诊断和治疗的极具有吸引力的靶点。放射性核素标记的PSMA小分子抑制剂能够高效、特异性探测前列腺癌病灶并进行分期。本研究初步探讨99mTc标记PSMA小分子抑制剂(HYNIC-Glu-Urea-A,简称99mTc-PSMA)SPECT/CT显像诊断前列腺原发灶和转移灶的价值。方法:24例前列腺癌和1例前列腺增生患者静脉注射99mTc-PSMA 2 h后行全身平面扫描和腹盆部SPECT/CT断层显像,采用感兴趣区技术计算肿瘤和肌肉摄取99mTc-PSMA比值(T/N)进行半定量分析,评价全身平面显像结合断层显像检测前列腺癌原发灶和(或)转移灶的灵敏度和特异度,分析99mTc-PSMA阳性率与前列腺癌特异性抗原(prostate-specific antigen,PSA)水平和Gleason评分的关系。结果:以患者为单位,99mTc-PSMA SPECT/CT对前列腺癌原发灶或转移灶检测的灵敏度为72.7%(16/22)、特异度为100%(3/3)。99mTc-PSMA阳性患者,(中位数17.31 ng/mL,范围2.26~3 239.00 ng/mL)水平明显高于99mTc-PSMA阴性患者PSA(中位数0.49 ng/mL,范围0.07~9.28 ng/mL)(Z=-3.51,P<0.001);在初诊和PSA大于2 ng/mL的复发患者中,99mTc-PSMA阳性率明显提高,灵敏度达94.1%(16/17);99mTc-PSMA的阳性率与Gleason评分高低无关(Z=-0.69,P=0.52)。结论:99mTc-PSMA全身平面显像结合局部SPECT/CT断层显像对前列腺癌原发灶和转移灶的探测有较高应用价值,灵敏度及特异度均较高。

Abstract: Background and purpose: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), a cell surface protein with high expression in prostate carcinoma (PC) cells, is an attractive target for PC imaging and therapy. Small-molecule radiopharmaceuticals targeting PSMA can detect the location and extent of disease with high sensitivity and specificity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of technetium-99m-labelled small molecule against PSMA (HYNICGlu- Urea-A, 99mTc-PSMA) for the detection of primary and metastatic prostate cancers. Methods: Twenty-four prostate cancer patients and 1 patient with benign prostate hyperplasia received whole-body scan followed by abdominopelvic SPECT/CT 2 h after intravenous injection of 99mTc-PSMA. Tumor to muscle uptake ratio of 99mTc-PSMA was calculated using region of interest (ROI) technology. The sensitivity and specificity of 99mTc-PSMA were evaluated. The relationships between positive 99mTc-PSMA and prostate specific antigen (PSA) level and Gleason Score were analyzed. Results: Based on per patient, the sensitivity and specificity of 99mTc-PSMA were 72.7% (16/22) and 100% (3/3), respectively. The level of PSA in patients with positive 99mTc-PSMA imaging was significantly higher than that in patients with negative 99mTc-PSMA imaging [(PSA median 17.31 ng/mL, range: 2.26-3 239.0 ng/mL) vs (PSA median 0.49 ng/ mL, range: 0.07-9.28 ng/mL)] (Z=-3.51, P<0.001). Among newly diagnosed patients and recurrent patients with PSA more than 2.0 nm/mL, it was apparent that 99mTc-PSMA imaging was able to detect lesions with improved sensitivity of 94.1% (16/17). Gleason Scores between positive 99mTc-PSMA patients and negative 99mTc-PSMA patients were not significantly different (Z=-0.69, P=0.52). Conclusion: With the combination of whole-body scan and tomography, 99mTc-PSMA SPECT/CT can be an excellent and specific molecular imaging strategy to detect prostate cancer and its metastases.
