  1. Challenges and Opportunitiesfor In Vivo ImagingIn Oncology Presented by Dan Sullivan to the NCI Board of Scientific Advisors, June 2002 See the Duke SAIRP web site for images from Mouse MRI Atlas http://wwwcivm.mc.duke.edu/ This slide set is abridged for web presentation.

  2. In Vivo Imaging For Oncology Devices (Hardware &Software) Laboratory Methodologies Study biology or interventions in animal models or humans (e.g., functional, in vivo genomics/proteomics; drug development) • Clinical Methodologies • Screening • Diagnosis • Staging • Prognosis • Therapy Monitoring • Image-guided Rx Molecular Probes; Contrast Agents Image Exploitation; Informatics

  3. Outline • Overview • Look back (portfolio review) • Clinical and Laboratory imaging issues • Molecular Imaging • Image-guided interventions • Conclusion

  4. BIP Portfolio

  5. BIP FY01 Portfolio

  6. BIP FY01 RFA Funding

  7. Imaging in Clinical Trials • ACRIN – more later • Rigorous methodology • Two U01’s will not be renewed • Additional venues for diagnostic trials: e.g., ACOSOG; R01’s; R33’s

  8. Imaging in Clinical Trials • More integration of imaging studies in CTEP trials – especially in the neoadjuvant setting • Inter-group Imaging Council • Imaging Cores in Cancer Centers • Access to imaging resources is inadequate

  9. Monitoring Response to Therapy • RECIST Criteria -- good start; volumetric would be better. • Need Functional Response Indicators – “molecular imaging”. • Generic, “downstream” indicator vs. specific, targeted probe?

  10. Chemotherapy Response by MRI & MRS 1 wk pre-Tx 76 cc Day 1 AC x1 79 cc Day 42 AC x3 26 cc Day 70 AC x4 25 cc Day 112 taxol x2 11 cc Day 178 taxol x4 6 cc 486 593 267 79 481 595 partial response to AC, regrowth on taxol final pathology - viable IDC and extensive DCIS Univ. of Minnesota

  15. Phase 1, 2 Clinical Trials MMPI and Cancer: Trials and Tribulations, Coussens, Science 2002

  16. Targeted Agent Trials: • Problems: • Selecting patients • Biologic endpoint assessment • Examples: • Matrix metaloproteinase inhibitors • Anti-angiogenesis therapies • 17-AAG (HSP90 inhibitor)

  17. PEG Image Therapy MSH CCK Enk. Construction ofMultimeric Ligands Gillies; U. AZ

  18. Multimeric Specificity

  19. Nano-engineered Optical Agents • Emission spectra can be “tuned” • [Nanotechnology: the creation of functional materials, devices and systems through control of matter at the scale of 1 to 100 nanometers, and the exploitation of novel properties and phenomena at the same scale.]

  20. DCIDE Development of Clinical Imaging Drugs and Enhancers Purpose: Facilitate pre-clinical development of promising imaging agents by providing the resources needed for successful IND application.

  21. Small Animal Imaging for Drug Development (Demonstration Project: BIP, DTP, CTEP) • anti-angiogenesis first model system; • NCI will supply the animals, drugs, and imaging protocol, to contractors; • tissues will be returned to NCI for standardized processing.

  22. Image-guided Interventions

  23. Future Potential

  24. Surgical Robots

  25. PET/CT • David Townsend, U Pitt. • NCI R01, 1993 • Now commercially available • ~ 150 expected to be sold by 2003 • Townsend has received R33 for second-generation • Higher-resolution, faster acquisition PET • Sub 4-minute scans

  26. Quantitative whole body imaging in 5 min …………or less
