Popis: | In osteosarcoma, some studies have suggested P-glycoprotein expression is a prognostic factor. The clearance of (99m)technetium hexakis-2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile ((99m)Tc-MIBI) has been used in some tumor systems as an in vivo measure of P-glycoprotein-mediated efflux. In this study we explored the correlation between (99m)Tc-MIBI clearance and histological necrosis following induction chemotherapy and P-glycoprotein expression in osteosarcoma. The primary tumors of 20 patients with high-grade osteosarcoma were imaged at diagnosis with (99m)Tc-MIBI, and the uptake ratios and biological half-lives were calculated. P-Glycoprotein expression in the tumor tissue was determined immunohistochemically and by measuring mRNA expression of the multidrug resistance-1 gene. The histological necrosis following induction chemotherapy was assessed by the Huvos grading system. The biological half-life of (99m)Tc-MIBI ranged from 1.4 to 52.5 h. Seven of the 20 tumor samples had a favorable extent of necrosis following induction chemotherapy. The (99m)Tc-MIBI half-life and uptake ratio showed no correlation with histological necrosis following induction chemotherapy. The (99m)Tc-MIBI half-life and uptake ratio did not correlate with either measure of P-glycoprotein expression. The results of this pilot study indicate that (99m)Tc-MIBI imaging is not an effective predictor of histological necrosis following induction chemotherapy in high-grade osteosarcoma. (99m)Tc-MIBI imaging did not correlate with measures of P-glycoprotein expression in the tumor tissue. |
