Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Distribution of Radioactive Drug Substance | 24 hours | To measure distribution of radioactivity from 99mTc-EC20 injection in blood and urine samples. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Safety of 99mTc-Etarfolatide in Normal Volunteers | 4 days post-injection of EC20 | Asses any adverse events and serious adverse events experienced by volunteers. |
| Tolerability of 99mTc-Etarfolatide in Normal Volunteers | 4 days | Asses any adverse events and serious adverse events experienced by volunteers. |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Quality of SPECT images of Normal Volunteers with or without injection of Folic Acid | 24 hours | Comparison made of SPECT images taken of volunteers who received folic acid injection prior to 99mTc-EC20 injection and those who did not receive folic acid injection. Readability of scans, background noise as well as evaluation of any other differences will be noted. |
