Flathead catfish — native to the Mississippi River basin — were first detected in the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania in 2002, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. In the two decades since then, the invasive species has spread throughout the river basin. The impact of the large predator on the waterway’s food webs and ecology was unknown, but now a team including researchers from Penn State is beginning to understand what Susquehanna flatheads are eating and how their presence is affecting native aquatic species in the river.

This single-center, single-arm, phase II trial (ChiCTR2100050057) investigated the ability of ¹⁸F-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor ([¹⁸F]AlF-NOTA-FAPI-04, denoted as ¹⁸F-FAPI) PET/CT to predict the response to neoadjuvant camrelizumab plus chemotherapy (nCC) in locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-ESCC). Methods: This study included 32 newly diagnosed LA-ESCC participants who underwent ¹⁸F-FAPI PET/CT at baseline, of whom 23 also underwent scanning after 2 cycles of nCC. The participants underwent surgery after 2 cycles of nCC. Recorded PET parameters included maximum, peak, and mean SUVs and tumor-to-background ratios (TBRs), metabolic tumor volume, and total lesion FAP expression. PET parameters were compared between patient groups with good and poor pathologic responses, and the predictive performance for treatment response was analyzed. Results: The good and poor response groups each included 16 participants (16/32, 50.0%). On ¹⁸F-FAPI PET/CT, the posttreatment SUVs were significantly lower in good responders than in poor responders, whereas the changes in SUVs with treatment were significantly higher (all P < 0.05). SUV_max (area under the curve [AUC], 0.87; P = 0.0026), SUV_peak (AUC, 0.89; P = 0.0017), SUV_mean (AUC, 0.88; P = 0.0021), TBR_max (AUC, 0.86; P = 0.0031), and TBR_mean (AUC, 0.88; P = 0.0021) after nCC were significant predictors of pathologic response to nCC, with sensitivities of 63.64%–81.82% and specificities of 83.33%–100%. Changes in SUV_max (AUC, 0.81; P = 0.0116), SUV_peak (AUC, 0.82; P = 0.0097), SUV_mean (AUC, 0.81; P = 0.0116), and TBR_mean (AUC, 0.74; P = 0.0489) also were significant predictors of the pathologic response to nCC, with sensitivities and specificities in similar ranges. Conclusion: ¹⁸F-FAPI PET/CT parameters after treatment and their changes from baseline can predict the pathologic response to nCC in LA-ESCC participants.
