Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

uPAR PET/CT for Staging Advanced and Localised oral and oropharyngeal cancer

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To compare the diagnostic value of uPAR-PET/CT for prognostication compared to the current imaging options (CT, MRI and ultrasound) by observer-blinded readings. The reference that will be used as "gold standard" is the pathological examination of the surgically removed tissues.

The new imaging modality (uPAR-PET/CT) will be used in two separate groups of patients with head and neck cancer:

Study I:

Patients with oral cancer without clinical evidence of spread (OSCC in stage cN0)

Study II:

Patients with metastatic oral cancer (OSCC in stage cN +) and patients with metastatic oropharyngeal cancer (OPSCC in stage cN +).

68Ga-NOTA-AE105 PET/CT

One injection of 68Ga-NOTA-AE105 followed by positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT scan) will be performed before surgery and compared with the histological findings to evaluate uPAR PET/CT in staging of oral cancer and oropharyngeal cancer.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Able to understand patient information and to give informed consent
* Not previously irradiated or operated on neck
* Operable disease

Study I OSCC cN0 verified histologically by pathologic examination of biopsy

Study II OSCC or OPSCC N + verified histologically by pathologic examination of biopsy

Exclusion Criteria

* Pregnancy
* Patients who are candidates for curative intentional radiation
* Patients who have had surgery or radiation therapy to the neck as this may alter the lymph drainage.
* Other diseases assessed by the investigator as basis for exclusion.
* Age under 18 or over 85 years
* Obesity\> 140 kg
