Equivocal bone lesions on PSMA PET/CT: systematic review and meta-analysis on their prevalence and malignancy rate
Purpose
Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT has an established reliable diagnostic performance for detecting metastases in prostate cancer. However, there are increasing instances of scans demonstrating equivocal bone lesions, with non-specific uptake and without a definite benign or malignant CT correlate. To date, the prevalence, malignancy rate, and relationship with radioligand type ([18F] PSMA-1007 vs. others ([68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 and [18F] DCFPyL) for these equivocal lesions have not been extensively established.
Methods
A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted on equivocal bone lesions. Pubmed and EMBASE were searched up to December 11, 2023. Quality of the studies was evaluated using QUADAS-2. The following proportions were pooled using random-effects model: (1) prevalence of equivocal bone lesions (i.e., number of patients with one or more equivocal bone lesions/number of patients with PSMA PET/CT) and (2) their malignancy rates (i.e., number of metastases/number of equivocal bone lesions). Subgroup analyses based on radioligand type, clinical setting, and definition of equivocal bone lesion were performed.
Results
Twenty-five studies (4484 patients) were included. Pooled prevalence of equivocal bone lesions was 20% (95%CI, 12–31%). [18F]PSMA-1007 was associated with a greater prevalence of equivocal lesions compared with other radioligands: 36% (95%CI 26–48%) vs. 8% (95%CI, 4–14%), respectively, p < 0.01. Pooled malignancy rate of equivocal bone lesions was 14% (95%CI, 7–25%). [18F]PSMA-1007 was associated with a lower malignancy rate compared to other radioligands: 8% (95%CI, 3–19%) vs. 29% (95%CI, 17–44%), respectively, p = 0.01. There were no signficant difference in prevalence or malignancy rate between subgroups stratified to clinical setting or definition of equivocal bone lesions (p = 0.32–0.60).
Conclusions
Equivocal bone lesions are often encountered on PSMA PET/CT but exihibit a low malignancy rate. Compared to other radioligands, [18F]PSMA-1007 requires special attention as it is associated with a higher frequency and lower rate of metastasis.
期刊介绍:
Clinical and Translational Imaging is an international journal that publishes timely, up-to-date summaries on clinical practice and translational research and clinical applications of approved and experimental radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Coverage includes such topics as advanced preclinical evidence in the fields of physics, dosimetry, radiation biology and radiopharmacy with relevance to applications in human subjects. The journal benefits a readership of nuclear medicine practitioners and allied professionals involved in molecular imaging and therapy.
