Study Details

Brief summary:

This exploratory, first-in-man, phase 0 study will evaluate the feasibility of using a sub-therapeutic dose of a fluorine-18 analogue of NP-59 (\[18F\]FNP-59) to image the adrenal gland in healthy normal subjects. The researchers believe that \[18F\]FNP-59 would greatly improve the imaging characteristics, by providing a PET imaging cholesterol analogue with significantly improved radiation dosimetry.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

other: Group 1

These subjects, 6 planned (3 male, 3 female), will be to obtain normal tissue distribution of \[18F\]NP-59 and confirm calculated radiation dosimetry and optimal uptake time.

Interventions

FNP-59

FNP-59, a radiotracer, is administered for PET/CT scans.

Primary outcome measure

  • Uptake for [18F]FNP-59 in the adrenal glands using the standardized uptake value (SUV) based on gland segmentation [ Time Frame: Day 0 ]
