[18F]Fluoroestradiol (FES) PET/CT Imaging to Evaluate in Vivo ER in Endocrine Refractory Metastatic Breast Cancer

In this study, positron emission tomography (PET/CT) imaging will be used to evaluate
estrogen receptor (ER) activity in sites of metastatic disease using the investigational
radiotracer [18F]fluoroestradiol (FES).

This study will evaluate [18F]FES PET/CT uptake as a predictor of progression free survival
in endocrine refractory recurrent or metastatic breast cancer patients starting a new therapy
regimen including endocrine targeted therapy. Imaging will occur prior to starting new
therapy. Some patients may also undergo a second FES PET/CT scan at the time of suspected
progression of disease to compare for changes in FES uptake measures. This is an
observational study in that [18F]FES PET/CT will not be used to direct therapy decisions.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. At least 18 years of age

2. Recurrent or metastatic cancer that is of known or suspected breast origin - may be
biopsy proven or identified on standard imaging (e.g. CT, bone scan, MRI, FDG PET/CT)

3. History of ER+ pathology (ER+ may be confirmed from surgery or biopsy of primary
breast cancer or lymph nodes, and/or surgery or biopsy of a metastatic site,
metastatic biopsy is not required)

4. At least one site of disease outside of the liver that is seen on standard imaging
(e.g. CT, bone scan, MRI, FDG PET/CT); patients with measurable or nonmeasurable
disease are allowed.

5. History of progression or recurrence of disease while on an endocrine targeted therapy
containing regimen as assessed by medical record review of breast cancer history at
screening

6. Participants must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and be
willing to provide written informed consent and participate in this study in
accordance with institutional and federal guidelines prior to study-specific
procedures

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Females who are pregnant at the time of screening will not be eligible for this study,
urine pregnancy test will be performed at screening in women of child-bearing
potential.

2. Inability to tolerate imaging procedures in the opinion of an investigator or treating
physician

3. Serious or unstable medical or psychological conditions that, in the opinion of the
investigator, would compromise the subject's safety or successful participation in the
study.

4. History of HER2/neu positive cancer (IHC 3+ and/or FISH positive) as assessed by
medical record review at screening
