OBJECTIVE
To compare two potential positron emission tomography (PET) tracers of tumor hypoxia in an animal model.
METHODS
The purported hypoxia imaging agents (18)F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO) and (64)Cu(II)-diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) (Cu-ATSM) were compared by serial microPET imaging
Positron emission tomography scanning using the radiotracer-labeled copper (II)-diacetyl-bis(N(4)-methylthiosemicarbazone) has been proposed as a noninvasive method for evaluating tumor hypoxia. Tumor hypoxia results in a more aggressive tumor phenotype together with resistance to both radiotherapy
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of PET imaging with a hypoxia-selective tracer ⁶²Cu-diacetyl-bis(N⁴-methylthiosemicarbazone) (⁶²Cu-ATSM) for evaluating the prognosis of patients with head and neck cancer (HNC).
METHODS
Twenty-five patients with HNC including stage II
Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α is a key regulator associated with tumorigenesis, angiogenesis, and metastasis. HIF-1α regulation under hypoxia has been highlighted as a promising therapeutic target in angiogenesis-related diseases. Here, we demonstrate that diacetyl atractylodiol (DAA) from
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between tumor hypoxia and microscopic diffusion capacity in primary brain tumors using (62)Cu-Diacetyl-Bis (N4-Methylthiosemicarbazone) ((62)Cu-ATSM) PET/CT and diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI).
METHODS
This study was approved by the
Imaging of hypoxia is important in many diseases states in oncology, cardiology, and neurology. The radiopharmaceutical, copper-labeled diacetyl-bis(N-methylthiosemicarbazone), has been used to assess hypoxia in many studies. In particular, copper-labeled diacetyl-bis(N-methylthiosemicarbazone) has
Tumor hypoxia indicates a poor prognosis. This study was undertaken to confirm our prior pilot results showing that pretreatment tumor hypoxia demonstrated by PET with (60)Cu-labeled diacetyl-bis(N(4)-methylthiosemicarbazone) ((60)Cu-ATSM) is a biomarker of poor prognosis in patients with cervical
The retention mechanism of the novel imaging/radiotherapeutic agent, Cu-diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) (Cu-ATSM) in tumor cells was clarified in comparison with that in normal tissue in vitro. With Cu-ATSM and reversed phase HPLC analysis, the reductive metabolism of Cu-ATSM in subcellular
Cu-Diacetyl-bis(N(4)-methylthiosemicarbazone) (Cu-ATSM) is a recently developed PET imaging agent for tumor hypoxia. However, its accuracy and reliability for measuring hypoxia have not been fully characterized in vivo. The aim of this study was to evaluate (64)Cu-ATSM as a hypoxia PET marker by
OBJECTIVE
The behavior of copper-64-diacetyl-bis(N(4)-methylthiosemicarbazone) ((64)Cu-ATSM) in hypoxic tumors was examined through a combination of in vivo dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) and ex vivo autoradiographic and histologic evaluation using a xenograft model of head-and-neck
Copper(II)-diacetyl-bis(N(4)-methylthiosemicarbazone) (copper-ATSM) is a hypoxia-avid tracer for the selective identification of hypoxic tissue. Using canine models of hypoxic myocardium, we report our findings on *Cu-ATSM PET (*Cu is defined as either (60)Cu, (61)Cu, or (64)Cu) for the delineation
OBJECTIVE
Hypoxic tissue evaluation in glioma is important for predicting treatment response and establishing antihypoxia therapy. In this preliminary study, (62)Cu-ATSM PET was used to determine its validity as a biomarker for distinguishing tumor grade and tissue hypoxia.
METHODS
(62)Cu-ATSM PET
OBJECTIVE
To determine if hypoxia-related molecular markers are associated with (60)Cu labeled diacetyl-bis (N4 -methylthiosemicarbazone); ((60)Cu-ATSM) imaging of tumor hypoxia in cervical cancer.
METHODS
Fifteen patients were enrolled in a prospective study and underwent evaluation of tumor
Hypoxic regions are present in different types of cancer and are a negative prognostic factor for disease progression and response to therapy. (18)F-fluoroazomycin-arabinofuranoside ((18)F-FAZA) and (64)Cu-diacetyl-bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) ((64)Cu-ATSM) have been widely used to visualize
BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to compare (64)Cu-diacetyl-bis(N(4)-methylsemicarbazone) ((64)Cu-ATSM) and (18)FDG PET uptake characteristics and (64)Cu-ATSM autoradiography to pimonidazole immunohistochemistry in spontaneous canine sarcomas and carcinomas.
METHODS
Biopsies were collected from
