About this trial
The goal of this Phase 0 clinical trial is to evaluate safety and biodistribution of \[89Zr\]Zr-DFO-APAC in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease / critical limb ischemia (PAOD/CLI) and healthy volunteers. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* What is the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile (PK: both systemic and local vascular injury site-specific PK) of \[89Zr\]Zr-DFO-APAC? * What is the biodistribution and internal radiation dosimetry of the tracer dose of \[89Zr\]Zr-DFO-APAC? * What is the binding and retention time of \[89Zr\]Zr-DFO-APAC to arteries and atherosclerotic or microvascular lesions? Participants will receive a dose of the \[89Zr\]Zr-DFO-APAC (IMP) and PET/CT imaging is performed on days 1, 3 and 7, and follow-up visit 7-14 days post IMP dosing.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Males and females aged 40-85 years.
PAOD/CLI patients Rutherford categories 1-4 and category 5 with Wlfl wound grade of 0 or 1.
Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) >46 mL/min/1.73 m2 as per calculation of Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI).
CT angiography with contrast agent performed of within 3 months of the patients' first PET-scan as part of diagnostics of PAOD, with results available in the subject's medical records.
Disqualifiers
Acute limb-threatening ischemia (e.g., embolic disease).
An existing aneurysm that requires surgical intervention.
Medical history of, or condition known to be associated with impaired hemostasis, such as an increased intracranial bleeding risk e.g., previous history of intracranial hemorrhage, subarachnoidal bleeding, hemorrhagic stroke, or gastrointestinal or retroperitoneal bleeding, or any inherited or acquired bleeding disorder, such as von Willebrand disease or hemophilia.
Any cerebrovascular event (including transient ischemic attack, thrombotic or embolic stroke) within the past year.
