This is a pilot imaging study in participants treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to treat brain metastasis. The purpose of this study is to see whether 18F-Fluciclovine positron emission tomography (PET) can be used as a biomarker to measure response or progression of brain metastasis after SRS.

Participants will receive 5-mCi dose (± 20%) of 18F-fluciclovine intravenously as a bolus injection immediately prior to PET data acquisition. PET data will be collected in list mode up to 25 minutes post-injection. PET images will be reconstructed in two ways: as a standard static image of data acquired between 10 to 20 minutes post-injection, and as a dynamic series of four 5-minute frames between 5 to 25 minutes post-injection to allow for motion assessment and correction and time-dependent observations.

RECRUITINGChange in Standardized Uptake Value (SUV)-peak
Each 18F-fluciclovine PET will undergo quantitative image analysis by the study nuclear medicine physician. The lesion on each PET will be correlated with the lesion on the corresponding contrast-enhanced MRI and will be delineated. The SUVpeak will be calculated for the pre-SRS and post-SRS imaging studies, as well as the percent change from pre to post will be calculated. Assuming SRS reduces the tumor size, a negative percent change (decrease) is expected.
Time frame: 8 weeks
Change in SUVmean
Each 18F-fluciclovine PET will undergo quantitative image analysis by the study nuclear medicine physician. The lesion on each PET will be correlated with the lesion on the corresponding contrast-enhanced MRI and will be delineated. The SUVmean will be calculated for the pre-SRS and post-SRS imaging studies, as well as the percent change from pre to post will be calculated. Assuming SRS reduces the tumor size, a negative percent change (decrease) is expected.
Time frame: 8 weeks
Change in SUVmax
Each 18F-fluciclovine PET will undergo quantitative image analysis by the study nuclear medicine physician. The lesion on each PET will be correlated with the lesion on the corresponding contrast-enhanced MRI and will be delineated. The SUVmax will be calculated for the pre-SRS and post-SRS imaging studies, as well as the change from pre to post will be calculated. Assuming SRS reduces the tumor size, a negative percent change (decrease) is expected.
Time frame: 8 weeks
Tumor Control
Each lesion will be followed from pre-treatment PET to local failure or retreatment; death; lost-to follow-up, discontinuation, or withdrawal; or end of study. Local failure is defined as disease progression according to Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria.
Time frame: 12 months
