Evaluation of PET Probe [64]Cu-Macrin in Cardiovascular Disease, Cancer and Sarcoidosis.
Status unconfirmed · Phase 1
Conditions studied: Sarcoid, Cardiovascular Diseases, Cancer
In brief
To evaluate the safety of \[64Cu\] Macrin and its whole-body distribution, metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and radiation burden in healthy volunteers. To detect \[64Cu\]-Macrin accumulation in sites of disease in subjects with cancer, sarcoidosis or myocardial infarct.

You may not qualify if…
- • Electrical implants, such as cardiac pacemaker or perfusion pump;
- Ferromagnetic implants such as aneurysm clips, surgical clips, prostheses, artificial hearts, valves with steel parts, metal fragments, shrapnel, metallic tattoos anywhere on the body, tattoos near the eye, or steel implants ferromagnetic objects such as jewelry or metal clips in clothing;
- eGFR of less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 within the past 30 days;
- Pregnant or breastfeeding (a negative quantitative serum hCG pregnancy test is required for females having child-bearing potential before the subject can participate);

- Research-related radiation exposure exceeds current Radiology Department guidelines (i.e. 50 mSv in the prior 12 months);
- Unable to lie comfortably on a bed inside the MR-PET;
- BMI > 33 (limit of the PET-MRI table);
- Determined by the investigator(s) to be clinically unsuitable for the study (e.g. based on screening visit and/or during study procedures);
- Stroke within the last 3 months;
- Cardiac or major surgery within the last 3 months;
- History of abnormal heart rate including persistent tachyarrhythmia (heart rate persistently >120 bpm) or bradyarrhythmia (heart rate persistently < 50 bpm);
- History of atrial premature complexes with daytime pauses > 3s;
- Contraindications to gadolinium-based contrast agents, including an eGFR < 30 mL/min (myocardial infarction and sarcoidosis patients only).
