The Diagnostic Accuracy and Clinical Value of FAPI PET in Pleural Mesothelioma (FAPI-PM)

Primary Outcome Measures Calculate the proportion of patients where the location of the intended pleural biopsy is altered due to FAPI PET/CT replacing FDG PET/CT. Secondary Outcome Measures Compare the cancer stage (IASCL 9th edition TNM-classification) as determined by FAPI PET/CT compared to conventional imaging (including FDG PET/CT) at primary[…]

New Preclinical and Clinical Approaches to Mesothelioma

This study protocol involves the coordination between UO1 (IRCCS San Raffaele Hospital) and UO2 (Istituto Nazionale Tumori di Napoli – IRCCS G. Pascale) to explore the role of HMGB1 and CXCR4 in cancer treatment and metastasis. UO1 focuses on the role of HMGB1 in inflammation, mesothelioma progression, and tissue repair, as well as developing, in future, possible HMGB1 inhibitors for cancer therapy. UO2 specializes in CXCR4’s role in cancer, developing CXCR4 antagonists, and tracking CXCR4-dependent metastasis. The hypothesis is that targeting HMGB1 and CXCR4 pathways will inhibit tumor progression and metastasis, enhancing anti-tumor immunity and improving therapeutic outcomes in cancer.

Ga-68 FAPI PET Before Immunotherapy (FAPBI)

It is aimed to evaluate FAP expression and its success in predicting treatment response before immunotherapy used in the treatment of malignant mesothelioma with Ga68 FAPI PET/CT imaging, which allows in vivo evaluation of FAP expression, which is thought to be associated with immunosuppression and resistance to immunotherapy.
