摘要

Background: [~(18)F]fluorothymidine (FLT) has been proposed as a positron emission tomography (PET)-imaging biomarker of proliferation for breast cancer. The aim of this prospective study was to assess the feasibility of FLT-PET-CT as a technique for predicting the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in primary breast cancer and to compare baseline FLT with Ki-67.Methods: Twenty women with primary breast cancer had a baseline FLT-PET-CT scan that was repeated before the second cycle of chemotherapy. Expression of Ki-67 in the diagnostic biopsy was quantified. From the FLT-PET-CT scans lesion maximum and mean standardised uptake values (SUV_(max), SUV_(mean)) were calculated.Results: Mean baseline SUV_(max) was 7.3, and 4.62 post one cycle of NAC, representing a drop of 2.68 (36.3%). There was no significant association between baseline, post chemotherapy, or change in SUV_(max) and pathological response to NAC. There was a significant correlation between pre-chemotherapy Ki-67 and SUV_(max) of 0.604 ( P =0.006).Conclusions: Baseline SUV_(max) measurements of FLT-PET-CT were significantly related to Ki-67 suggesting that it is a proliferation biomarker. However, in this series neither the baseline value nor the change in SUV_(max) after one cycle of NAC were able to predict response as most patients had a sizeable SUV_(max) reduction.
