Abstrakt: 18 F-fluorodihydrotestosterone ( 18 F-FDHT) PET/CT potentially provides a noninvasive method for assessment of androgen receptor expression in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The objective of this study was to assess simplified methods for quantifying 18 F-FDHT uptake in mCRPC patients and to assess effects of tumor perfusion on these 18 F-FDHT uptake metrics. Methods: Seventeen mCRPC patients were included in this prospective observational multicenter study. Test and retest 30-min dynamic 18 F-FDHT PET/CT scans with venous blood sampling were performed in 14 patients. In addition, arterial blood sampling and dynamic 15 O-H 2 O scans were obtained in a subset of 6 patients. Several simplified methods were assessed: Patlak plots; SUV normalized to body weight (SUV BW ), lean body mass (SUV LBM ), whole blood (SUV WB ), parent plasma activity concentration (SUV PP ), area under the parent plasma curve (SUV AUC,PP ), and area under the whole-blood input curve (SUV AUC,WB ); and SUV BW corrected for sex hormone-binding globulin levels (SUV SHBG ). Results were correlated with parameters derived from full pharmacokinetic 18 F-FDHT and 15 O-H 2 O. Finally, the repeatability of individual quantitative uptake metrics was assessed. Results: Eighty-seven 18 F-FDHT-avid lesions were evaluated. 18 F-FDHT uptake was best described by an irreversible 2-tissue-compartment model. Replacing the continuous metabolite-corrected arterial plasma input function with an image-derived input function in combination with venous sample data provided similar K i results ( R 2 = 0.98). Patlak K i and SUV AUC,PP showed an excellent correlation ( R 2 > 0.9). SUV BW showed a moderate correlation to K i ( R 2 = 0.70, presumably due to fast 18 F-FDHT metabolism. When calculating SUV SHBG , correlation to K i improved ( R 2 = 0.88). The repeatability of full kinetic modeling parameters was inferior to that of simplified methods (repeatability coefficients > 36% vs. < 28%, respectively). 18 F-FDHT uptake showed minimal blood flow dependency. Conclusion: 18 F-FDHT kinetics in mCRPC patients are best described by an irreversible 2-tissue-compartment model with blood volume parameter. SUV AUC,PP showed a near-perfect correlation with the irreversible 2-tissue-compartment model analysis and can be used for accurate quantification of 18 F-FDHT uptake in whole-body PET/CT scans. In addition, SUV SHBG could potentially be used as an even simpler method to quantify 18 F-FDHT uptake when less complex scanning protocols and accuracy are required.
