Brief summary

The aim of our study is to confirm the relevance of PET using \[68Ga\]Ga -PentixaFor ligand, in comparison with FDG, for initial staging and therapeutic evaluation of symptomatic multiple myeloma patients in first line treatment or in relapse. The prognostic value of positive CXCR4 expression will also be assessed and \[68Ga\]Ga -PentixaFor/FDG discordances explored.

Interventions

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
To determine the sensitivity of [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET to detect Multiple Myeloma (MM) lesions [Bone marrow (BM) lesions and/or extra-medullary disease (EMD) ] at the time of initial diagnosis or at relapse.1 MonthSensitivity will be assessed by patient and lesion analysis by defining: * True positive (TP): * lesion positive with \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET and positive by FDG-PET * or lesion positive with \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET, negative on FDG-PET but confirmed by another CT scan/ MRI or histology, or confirmed by follow-up (until therapeutic evaluation). * False negative (FN): - lesion negative with \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET and positive by FDG-PET and confirmed by CT or MRI or histology, or confirmed by follow-up.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
To determine at the time of initial diagnosis or at relapse, the prognostic impact of FDG PET and of [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET depending on the positivity, number and intensity of uptake detected by each imaging technique1 MonthThe prognostic impact of PET-FDG and \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET based on the number of lesions detected and their intensity of uptake by each imaging technique will be evaluated by assessing the impact of these data on the PFS and OS. PFS is defined as the time from the start of treatment to relapse or progression. OS is defined as the time from the start of first treatment to death.
To determine at the time of initial diagnosis or at relapse, the discrepancies rate between FDG PET and [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET1 MonthInvestigators will consider as discordant a lesion positive by FDG PET but negative by \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET and/or a lesion negative by FDG PET but positive by \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET
To determine at the time of initial diagnosis or at relapse, the factors associated with discrepancies between FDG PET and [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET1 MonthInvestigators will consider as discordant a lesion positive by FDG PET but negative by \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET and/or a lesion negative by FDG PET but positive by \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET
To determine at the initial diagnosis or relapse, the correlation between PET-FDG and [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET uptakes evaluated by SUV and the cytogenetic data evaluated on the myelogram (particularly the measurement of the expression of the gene coding1 Month68Ga\]Ga -PentixaFor and FDG uptakes assessed by SUV and the quantitative expression of biological markers on myelogram (including expression of the gene coding for hexokinases).
To determine at the time of initial diagnosis or at relapse, the specificity, the positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET1 MonthThe specificity (PPV and NPV) of \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET at the time of initial diagnosis will be assessed by patient and lesion analysis using the same definitions of TP and FN as for the primary objective.
To determine at the time of therapeutic evaluation the discrepancies rate between FDG PET and [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET and if available their link with histology.100 Day or 6 MonthInvestigators will consider as discordant a lesion positive by FDG PET but negative by \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET and/or a lesion negative by FDG PET but positive by \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET
To determine at the time of therapeutic evaluation the prognostic impact of FDG PET and [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET depending on the positivity, number and intensity of uptake detected by each imaging technique.100 Day and 6 MonthThe prognostic impact of \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET after therapy will be determined by evaluating the impact of a decrease uptake and/or a normalisation of images on PFS and OS.
To determine at the time of therapeutic evaluation the link between PET-FDG, [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET results and minimal residual disease evaluated by flow cytometry100 Day or 6 MonthPET-FDG, \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor-PET results (positive/negative) and minimal residual disease evaluated by flow cytometry (positive/negative).
To determine at the time of therapeutic evaluation the tolerance of [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET100 Day or 6 MonthTolerance of \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor will be assessed by clinical monitoring of the patient for 1 hour after \[68Ga\]Ga -PentixaFor injection. Clinical data (heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure) will be collected prior \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor injection before acquisition (at 60 min) and at the end of acquisition (at approximately 80 min).
To determine at the time of initial diagnosis or at relapse, the tolerance of [68Ga]Ga-PentixaFor-PET1 MonthTolerance of \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor will be assessed by clinical monitoring of the patient for 1 hour after \[68Ga\]Ga-PentixaFor injection.
