conferenceObject PET/MR characterization of mucinous versus nonmucinous components of rectal adenocarcinoma: a comparison of tumor metabolism and cellularity(2018) QUEIROZ, M.; BARBOSA, F. G.; NAVES, A.; DREYER, P.; MARIN, J. G.; ORTEGA, C.; CERRI, G. G.; BUCHPIGUEL, C.- Revisiting Prostate Cancer Recurrence with PSMA PET: Atlas of Typical and Atypical Patterns of Spread(2019) BARBOSA, Felipe G.; QUEIROZ, Marcelo A.; NUNES, Rafael F.; VIANA, Publio C. C.; MARIN, Jose Flavio G.; CERRI, Giovanni G.; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos A.The introduction of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) in clinical practice has revolutionized evaluation of biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer after curative-intent treatment. The high expression of this glycoprotein in prostate cancer cells makes PSMA imaging superior to the current conventional staging methods, namely bone scanning and CT. The high capability of PSMA imaging for identifying very small previously undetected lesions has been widely demonstrated in the literature, leading to a rethinking of patient management by oncologists, urologists, and radiation oncologists. The typical and predictable patterns of spread in prostate cancer are still more prevalent, such as spread to pelvic lymph nodes and bone metastasis, but different patterns of disease spread are becoming more commonly recognized with higher reliability because PSMA imaging allows detection of more typical and atypical lesions than conventional imaging. Furthermore, it is important for the reading physician to recognize and understand the typical disease spread and the most prevalent atypical prostate cancer relapses, not only to heighten the relevancy of reports but also to improve imaging consultancy in multispecialty oncologic practice.

- Reassessing Patterns of Response to Immunotherapy with PET: From Morphology to Metabolism(2021) COSTA, Larissa B.; QUEIROZ, Marcelo A.; BARBOSA, Felipe G.; NUNES, Rafael F.; ZANIBONI, Elaine C.; RUIZ, Mariana Mazo; JARDIM, Denis; MARIN, Jose Flavio Gomes; CERRI, Giovanni G.; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos A.Cancer demands precise evaluation and accurate and timely assessment of response to treatment. Imaging must be performed early during therapy to allow adjustments to the course of treatment. For decades, cross-sectional imaging provided these answers, showing responses to the treatment through changes in tumor size. However, with the emergence of immune checkpoint inhibitors, complex immune response patterns were revealed that have quickly highlighted the limitations of this approach. Patterns of response beyond tumor size have been recognized and include cystic degeneration, necrosis, hemorrhage, and cavitation. Furthermore, new unique patterns of response have surfaced, like pseudoprogression and hyperprogression, while other patterns were shown to be deceptive, such as unconfirmed progressive disease. This evolution led to new therapeutic evaluation criteria adapted specifically for immunotherapy. Moreover, inflammatory adverse effects of the immune checkpoint blockade were identified, many of which were life threatening and requiring prompt intervention. Given complex concepts like tumor microenvironment and novel therapeutic modalities in the era of personalized medicine, increasingly sophisticated imaging techniques are required to address the intricate patterns of behavior of different neoplasms. Fluorine 18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT has rapidly emerged as one such technique that spans both molecular biology and immunology. This imaging technique is potentially capable of identifying and tracking prognostic biomarkers owing to its combined use of anatomic and metabolic imaging, which enables it to characterize biologic processes in vivo. This tailored approach may provide whole-body quantification of the metabolic burden of disease, providing enhanced prediction of treatment response and improved detection of adverse events.

- Complete response to alectinib following crizotinib in an ALK-positive tumor with CNS involvement(2021) XAVIER, Camila B.; CANEDO, Felipe S. N. A.; LIMA, Fabiola A. S.; MELO, Raissa R.; LIMA, Luiz Guilherme C. A.; MARIN, Jose Flavio G.; SOUZA, Ciro E.; FEHER, OlavoInflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare entity that affects mostly children and young adults. The lungs are the most frequent primary site. When feasible, surgical resection is the standard of care and it is associated with long-term survival benefit. Metastatic disease is rare, and central nervous system involvement is very infrequent. There is paucity of data regarding systemic treatment of recurrent or metastatic disease but most IMTs present with ALK rearrangements, becoming potential targets to ALK inhibition. Diagnosis of ALK rearrangements by FISH or RT-PCR is standard and discordant results from immunohistochemistry are rare. Crizotinib is considered the standard therapy in ALK-positive cases. Data supporting the use of other ALK inhibitors are scant and derived only from case reports. We report a case of a patient harboring an ALK-positive by IHC, FISH-negative IMT, that initially responded well to crizotinib but progressed in the CNS, presenting a complete CNS response with second-generation ALK inhibitor alectinib.
- Theranostics in Nuclear Medicine: Emerging and Re-emerging Integrated Imaging and Therapies in the Era of Precision Oncology(2020) MARIN, Jose Flavio Gomes; NUNES, Rafael F.; COUTINHO, Artur M.; ZANIBONI, Elaine C.; COSTA, Larissa B.; BARBOSA, Felipe G.; QUEIROZ, Marcelo A.; CERRI, Giovanni G.; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos A.Theranostics refers to the pairing of diagnostic biomarkers with therapeutic agents that share a specific target in diseased cells or tissues. Nuclear medicine, particularly with regard to applications in oncology, is currently one of the greatest components of the theranostic concept in clinical and research scenarios. Theranostics in nuclear medicine, or nuclear theranostics, refers to the use of radioactive compounds to image biologic phenomena by means of expression of specific disease targets such as cell surface receptors or membrane transporters, and then to use specifically designed agents to deliver ionizing radiation to the tissues that express these targets. The nuclear theranostic approach has sparked increasing interest and gained importance in parallel to the growth in molecular imaging and personalized medicine, helping to provide customized management for various diseases; improving patient selection, prediction of response and toxicity, and determination of prognosis; and avoiding futile and costly diagnostic examinations and treatment of many diseases. The authors provide an overview of theranostic approaches in nuclear medicine, starting with a review of the main concepts and unique features of nuclear theranostics and aided by a retrospective discussion of the progress of theranostic agents since early applications, with illustrative cases emphasizing the imaging features. Advanced concepts regarding the role of fluorine 18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET in theranostics, as well as developments in and future directions of theranostics, are discussed. (C) RSNA, 2020
- Clinical perspectives of PSMA PET/MRI for prostate cancer(2018) BARBOSA, Felipe de Galiza; QUEIROZ, Marcelo Araujo; NUNES, Rafael Fernandes; MARIN, Jose Flavio Gomes; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos Alberto; CERRI, Giovanni GuidoProstate cancer imaging has become an important diagnostic modality for tumor evaluation. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) has been extensively studied, and the results are robust and promising. The advent of the PET/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has added morphofunctional information from the standard of reference MRI to highly accurate molecular information from PET. Different PSMA ligands have been used for this purpose including (68)gallium and (18)fluorine-labeled PET probes, which have particular features including spatial resolution, imaging quality and tracer biodistribution. The use of PSMA PET imaging is well established for evaluating biochemical recurrence, even at low prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, but has also shown interesting applications for tumor detection, primary staging, assessment of therapeutic responses and treatment planning. This review will outline the potential role of PSMA PET/MRI for the clinical assessment of PCa.

bookPart Tumores ginecológicos(2017) COURA FILHO, George Barberio; MARIN, José Flávio Gomes- Whole-Skeleton SUVmean Measured on F-18-NaF PET/CT Studies as a Prognostic Indicator in Patients with Breast Cancer Metastatic to Bone(2022) MARIN, Jose Flavio Gomes; DUARTE, Paulo Schiavom; ORDONES, Monique Beraldo; SADO, Heitor Naoki; SAPIENZA, Marcelo Tatit; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos AlbertoIn this work, we assessed the association between the whole-skeleton SUVmean measured on F-18-NaF PET/CT studies and overall survival (OS) in patients with breast cancer metastatic to bone. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 176 patients with breast cancer and metastatic bone disease who underwent F-18-NaF PET/CT. The outcomes of the patients (dead or alive) were based on the last information available in their files. The SUVmean and SUVmax were measured in a whole-skeleton volume of interest (wsVOI). The wsVOI was based on the CT component of the PET/ CT study using Hounsfield unit thresholds. The wsVOI was then applied to the F-18-NaF PET image. Univariate analyses were performed to assess the association of SUVs with OS. We also analyzed the association between OS and patient age; presence of visceral metastatic disease; histologic subtype; presence of hormone receptors; human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression; and creatinine, cancer antigen (CA) 15-3, and alkaline phosphatase levels. The variables statistically significant in the univariate analyses were included in a multivariate Cox regression OS analysis. Results: In the univariate analyses, there were associations between OS and whole-skeleton SUVmean and SUVmax, estrogen receptor status, and CA15-3 and alkaline phosphatase levels. In the multivariate analysis, all variables that were statistically significant in the univariate analyses were associated with OS, with the exception of CA15-3. Conclusion: In patients with breast cancer metastatic to bone, whole-skeleton SUVmean is an independent predictor of OS.
