A MULTI-CENTER CLINICAL STUDY TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF FOLATESCAN (TECHNETIUM Tc 99m EC20) IN PATIENTS WITH SUSPECTED OVARIAN CARCINOMA OR RECURRENT ENDOMETRIAL CARCINOMA

EC20.4

The folate receptor is overexpressed in many types of cancer, including ovarian and endometrial cancer, and the level of folate receptor expression increases with the stage of the disease. Technetium Tc 99m EC20 (99mTc-EC20; FolateScan), a folate-targeted diagnostic radiopharmaceutical, is designed to bind to the folate receptor. Thus, FolateScan may provide an effective method to determine folate receptor-positive (FR+) target tumors, thereby assisting in the identification of those patients who may benefit from folate-targeted therapy.
