摘要:

目的 探讨68Ga-DOTATATE与18F-FDG PET/CT显像在不同级别胃肠胰神经内分泌肿瘤(GEP-NEN)分期及治疗决策中的价值。 方法 回顾性分析2020年8月~2023年3月在南方医科大学南方医院行18F-FDG和68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT显像的GEP-NEN患者49例,包括初诊患者34例,治疗后复发、转移患者15例。按病理分型将GEP-NEN分为G1、G2、G3神经内分泌瘤(NET)及神经内分泌癌(NEC)。依据同一患者双示踪剂阳性肿瘤病灶检出效能分为4种模式:68Ga-DOTATATE>18F-FDG(A);68Ga-DOTATATE=18F-FDG(B);68Ga-DOTATATE<18F-FDG(C);互补(D)。分析评价双示踪联合显像在分期及治疗决策中的价值。 结果 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT对全身肿瘤病灶检出优于18F-FDG PET/CT(P<0.001); 68Ga-DOTATATE显像在原发灶/复发灶、淋巴结转移、肝转移及骨转移的检出率更高(P<0.05),而18F-FDG PET/CT在肺转移和腹膜转移的检出率更高(P<0.05)。49例患者双示踪剂检出模式的比例为:模式A占46.9%(23/49),模式B占38.8%(19/49),模式C占12.2%(6/49),模式D占2.0%(1/49)。不同级别GEP-NEN患者18F-FDG PET/CT对68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT的补充价值为:G1 NET患者为0%(0/13)、G2 NET患者为8.3%(2/24)、G3 NET患者为50%(3/6)及NEC患者为33.3%(2/6)。12.2%(6/49)患者因联合18F-FDG PET/CT显像额外发现病灶而确定或改变分期,从而确定或改变治疗方案。 结论 GEP-NEN患者应首选68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT显像。对于G1 NET患者,联合18F-FDG PET/CT显像对分期及治疗决策无帮助,对G2、G3、NEC患者,联合18F-FDG PET/CT显像提高了部分患者分期及治疗决策精准度。

Abstract:

Objective To evaluate the value of ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE and ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging in staging and treatment decision for gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NEN). Methods This retrospective analysis was conducted in 49 patients with GEP-NEN undergoing 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging at our hospital from August, 2020 to March, 2023, including 34 newly diagnosed patients and 15 patients with recurrence or metastasis after treatment. GEP-NEN were classified into G1, G2, and G3 neuroendocrine tumors (NET) and neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC) based on pathological typing. The detection efficiency were classified into 4 patterns based on the number of positive tumor lesions detected by the two tracers: 68Ga-DOTATATE>18F-FDG (A); 68Ga-DOTATATE=18F-FDG (B); 68Ga-DOTATATE<18F-FDG (C); and complementation (D). The value of dual-modality imaging in staging and treatment decision were evaluated by visual analysis. Results In the 49 patients with GEP-NEN, 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT was superior to 18F-FDG PET/CT for detecting systemic tumor lesions (P<0.001) and more sensitive for detecting primary/recurrent lesions, lymph node metastasis, liver metastasis, and bone metastasis (P<0.05), while 18F-FDG PET/CT had higher detection rates for lung metastasis and peritoneal metastasis (P<0.05). In terms of the detection efficiency, Pattern A was found in 46.9% (23/49) patients, Pattern B in 38.8% (19/49), Pattern C in 12.2% (6/49), and Pattern D in 2.0% (1/49). The complementary value of ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT to ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT was 0% in G1 NET patients (0/13), 8.3% in G2 NET patients (2/24), 50% in G3 NET patients (3/6), and 33.3% in NEC patients (2/6). 12.2% (6/49) of the patients had their staging confirmed or changed due to additional lesions detected by ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging, resulting subsequently in establishment or adjustment of their treatment plans. Conclusion 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging should be the primary choice for GEP-NEN patients. Additional ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging can potentially improve precision of staging and treatment decision-making for G2, G3 and NEC patients but provides virtually no clinical benefits for G1 NET patients.
