Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy screening in advanced hepatocarcinoma: A multi-center French study.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS) has been reported for receptor (SSTR) screening in advanced hepatocarcinoma (aHC) prior to somatostatin analogue treatment. AIMS:To evaluate SSTR screening with SRS in aHC patients. RESULTS:Seventy aHC patients (63 men) aged 65 +/- 11 y were included, with alcohol, viral or other causes cirrhosis in 35 (50%), 23 (33%), 12 (17%) cases respectively. CLIP score was 2.7 +/- 1.7, with more than three nodules in 37 (53%) cases. Largest nodule measured 7.6 +/- 4.5 cm. Median alpha-fetoprotein was 574 UI/mL. SRS was positive in 25/70 (35.7%) livers and 7/17 (41.2%) metastatic sites. Positive SRS patients differed from others for tumor size (9.2 +/- 4 vs. 6.7 +/- 4.6 cm, p = 0.03), prothrombin time (PT) (75.2 +/- 15.2 vs. 61.9 +/- 19%, p = 0.005), albumin (34.1 +/- 5.9 vs. 30.5 +/- 7.2 g/L, p = 0.04) and Child-Pugh (6.7 +/- 1.8 vs. 7.7 +/- 2.3, p = 0.04). After multivariate analysis, only PT was associated with positive SRS (p = 0.028). Immunohistochemistry was positive for SSTR2s in 6/7 tumors (SRS uptake in 5/6 cases). METHODS:SRS was performed prior treatment, with images at 4, 24 and 48 h. For seven tumors, SSTR2 subtype was detected immunohistochemically. CONCLUSIONS:In advanced hepatocarcinoma, we report SRS uptake in 35.7% of livers and 41.2% of metastatic sites. SRS value in screening patients for somatostatin analogue treatment remains to be assessed.
