Fibrotic Disease Activity in Cardiopulmonary Disorders Using 18F-Fibroblast Activation Protein Inhibitor (18F-FAPI-74) PET/CT Imaging

Study Description: Fibroblast activation protein-targeted PET detects activated fibroblasts in a range of inflammatory and fibrosing cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders. It is a sensitive and quantifiable intervention to diagnose and monitor the natural history of cardiopulmonary disorders and/or the effects of antifibrotic interventions. Objectives: Primary objective: To compare 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT to standard of care (SOC) imaging (18F-FDG-PET/CT, non-contrast chest CT, and cardiac MRI for heart cohort) to detect fibrosis. Secondary objective: To compare the ability of 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT imaging to assess the natural history or treatment responses with standard of care imaging in cardiopulmonary diseases associated with fibrosis. Exploratory objectives: To use high density proteomic, transcriptomic, and metagenomic analysis of specimens from lung and/or blood to define associated mechanisms and biomarkers of active fibrosis with the visualization and quantification of FAP expression. To assess the usefulness of cardiopulmonary imaging with low-field heart lung MRI for characterization of the lung microarchitecture, microvascular perfusion, regional ventilation, and late gadolinium enhancement. Endpoints: Primary: Compare 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT to standard of care (SOC) imaging with 18F-FDG-PET/CT (with the rate of concordance defined as a quantitative measure of the abnormal lung parenchyma detected in both the FAPI and FDG PET scans ranging from 0 to 100%) and cardiac MRI for heart cohort for the development of pulmonary or cardiovascular fibrosis at baseline These findings will be evaluated separately in six different at-risk cohorts (allogeneic stem cell transplant, lung allograft transplant, interstitial lung disease, acute lung injury, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and cardiovascular disease). Secondary: Compare the ability of 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT imaging to assess the progression of fibrosis or treatment response compared to SOC imaging. The magnitude of change in 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT uptake (SUVmax and mean/median) between scans one and two will be compared. Comparisons of the quantitative chest CT abnormalities will be compared to both 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT and 18F-FDGPET/CT scans. These findings will be evaluated separately in six different at-risk cohorts (allogeneic stem cell transplant, lung allograft transplant, interstitial lung disease, acute lung injury, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and cardiovascular disease). Comparison of 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT to standard of care (SOC) imaging at up to 12 months after the initial scan at baseline and change from the baseline. Exploratory: To use high density proteomic, transcriptomic, and metagenomic analysis of specimens from lung and/or blood to define associated biomarkers and mechanisms of active fibrosis with the visualization and quantitation of FAP expression. To assess the usefulness of cardiopulmonary imaging with low-field heart lung MRI for characterization of the lung microarchitecture, microvascular perfusion, regional ventilation, and late gadolinium enhancement.
