Abstract

In a pilot study (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02646085), seven patients with treated multiple myeloma and negative FDG PET/CT underwent amino acid imaging with 11C-methionine PET/CT. In five participants, 11C-methionine PET/CT showed focal uptake corresponding with lytic lesions; two to 18 lesions were found (SUVmax, 2.8-6.4). Findings indicated a potential role for 11C-methionine PET/CT in detecting residual disease after negative FDG PET/CT, thereby guiding further treatment.
