By contrast, gastrin-releasing peptide receptor is overexpressed in ER/PR-positive breast cancer. This study assessed the diagnostic potential of 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT in staging or restaging metastatic ER/PR-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–negative breast cancer. Methods: Patients with ER/PR-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer with clinical suspicion for metastatic disease undergoing staging or restaging were prospectively enrolled. All patients underwent 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT, in addition to standard 18F-FDG PET/CT. ER/PR-positive and HER2-negative status was confirmed in prior biopsy samples (primary or metastatic). Conventional imaging (18F-FDG PET/CT, bone scan, and diagnostic CT) was required within 3 wk of 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT. 18F-FDG PET/CT and 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT were assessed visually and quantitatively. Visually, all scans were read masked by 2 readers, with a third reader if results were discordant. Results: Twenty patients were enrolled, all with ER/PR-positive and HER2-negative histopathology. Of these, 75% (15/20) had lobular-subtype cancer, 40% (8/20) had suspected metastatic disease at diagnosis, and 60% (12/20) underwent restaging after systemic therapy. Overall, 75% (15/20) of the 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT scans and 65% (13/20) of the 18F-FDG PET/CT scans were positive on visual assessment. For 50% (10/20) of patients, both scans were positive, and for 10% (2/20) of patients, both scans were negative. In the staging group, 75% (6/8) of patients had positive 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT and 50% (4/8) of patients had positive 18F-FDG PET/CT. At restaging, 75% (9/12) of patients had positive 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT and 75% (9/12) of patients had positive 18F-FDG PET/CT. Sites of positive 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT and negative 18F-FDG PET/CT disease were identified in 50% (4/8) of staging patients and 42% (5/12) of restaging patients, whereas negative 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT and positive 18F-FDG PET/CT disease was found in none of the staging patients but 58% (7/12) of the restaging cohort. Of these, 71% (5/7) of patients had a reduction in their ER status in the most recent biopsy samples. Quantitatively, the median SUVmax was higher for 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT (20.5; interquartile range, 5.8–31.3) than for 18F-FDG PET/CT (7.4; interquartile range, 4.9–9.8). Conclusion: 68Ga-NeoB PET/CT has diagnostic potential in the staging of ER/PR-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer. Further evaluation is warranted.
