Monitoring Tumor Hypoxia Using 18F-FMISO PET and Pharmacokinetics Modeling after Photodynamic Therapy

Abstract: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an efficacious treatment for some types of cancers. However, PDT-induced tumor hypoxia as a result of oxygen consumption and vascular damage can reduce the efficacy of this therapy. Measuring and monitoring intrinsic and PDT-induced tumor hypoxia in vivo during PDT is of high interest for prognostic and treatment evaluation. In the present study, static and dynamic 18F-FMISO PET were performed with mice bearing either U87MG or MDA-MB-435 tumor xenografts immediately before and aft… Show more

“…The consumption of oxygen is caused by uncontrolled proliferation of cancer cells. In addition, the shutdown effects of vascular mediated by PDT would further aggravate hypoxia and in turn limit PDT efficiency 16,17 . To solve this problem, catalysts (catalase and MnO 2 ) [18][19][20] were used to improve the local O 2 partial pressure in tumors through the decomposition of endogenous H 2 O 2 .…”

“…The antihypoxia potential of our platform was further assessed using micro‐PET imaging measurement. Here, 18 F‐fluoromisonidazole ( 18 FMISO) was chosen as the probe . As an oxygen‐susceptible molecule, 18 FMISO could only stably exist under hypoxic condition, making it a sensitive label for monitoring hypoxia.…”

“…In addition, when other radiotracers for PET images such as F18‐FMISO (fluoromisonidazole) or F18‐FLT are used, then specific subtumor regions are identified based on molecularly defined criteria. F18‐FMISO PET images present hypoxic tumor regions while F18‐FLT PET images efficiently identify proliferating tumor regions . In general, the identified tumor regions using molecular imaging are considerably different from anatomical CT imaging which identifies high electron density regions.…”
