Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare sarcoma of mesenchymal origin. Although generally benign, SFTs carry the risk of recurrence and metastasis, with limited effective treatment options. The aims of this study are to compare the performance of fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI), [Ga]Ga-DOTA-FAPI-04 (denoted as [Ga]Ga-FAPI-04), and conventional [F]FDG PET/CT in patients with recurrent or metastatic SFTs head to head and to preliminarily explore the value of FAP-targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy with Lu for SFT patients.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using Ga-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor-04 (Ga-FAPI-04) PET/CT imaging as a molecular tracer and noninvasive tool for assessing active renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis in patients with lupus nephritis (LN). The study included 29 LN patients who underwent Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT scanning to quantify Ga-FAPI-04 uptake. Renal biopsies were performed within a week of scanning.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the benefit of dual-time point 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT in staging head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
Patients And Methods: Sixty-nine treatment-naive patients with HNSCC were enrolled. Each patient underwent whole-body 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT at approximately 30 minutes postinjection and a delayed scan in head and neck region at 2 hours.

Fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) and [F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([F]FDG) provide complementary biological information, and FAPI/FDG dual-tracer imaging clinical application is increasing recently. However, optimal protocols for FAPI/FDG dual-tracer positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and PET/magnetic resonance (PET/MR) imaging are still under investigation. Due to its high sensitivity, total-body PET/CT allows for imaging with minimal tracer activity and supports the creation of new dual-tracer PET/CT imaging protocols.
