International audience. Objectives: Diagnostic accuracy of amino-acid PET for distinguishing progression from treatment-related changes (TRC) is currently based on single-center non-homogeneous glioma populations. Our study assesses the diagnostic value of static and dynamic [18F]FDOPA PET acquisitions to differentiate between high-grade glioma (HGG) recurrence and TRC in a large cohort sourced from two independent nuclear medicine centers.Methods: We retrospectively identified 106 patients with suspected glioma recurrences (WHO GIII, n = 38; GIV, n = 68; IDH-mutant, n = 35, IDH-wildtype, n = 71). Patients underwent dynamic [18F]FDOPA PET/CT (n = 83) or PET/MRI (n = 23), and static tumor-to-background ratios (TBRs), metabolic tumor volumes and dynamic parameters (time to peak and slope) were determined. The final diagnosis was either defined by histopathology or a clinical-radiological follow-up at 6 months. Optimal [18F]FDOPA PET parameter cut-offs were obtained by receiver operating characteristic analysis. Predictive factors and clinical parameters were assessed using univariate and multivariate Cox regression survival analyses.Results: Surgery or the clinical-radiological 6-month follow-up identified 71 progressions and 35 treatment-related changes. TBRmean, with a threshold of 1.8, best-differentiated glioma recurrence/progression from post-treatment changes in the whole population (sensitivity 82%, specificity 71%, p < 0.0001) whereas curve slope was only significantly different in IDH-mutant HGGs (n = 25). In survival analyses, MTV was a clinical independent predictor of progression-free and overall survival on the multivariate analysis (p ≤ 0.01). A curve slope > −0.12/h was an independent predictor for longer PFS in IDH-mutant HGGsConclusion: Our multicentric study confirms the high accuracy of [18F]FDOPA PET to differentiate recurrent malignant gliomas from TRC and emphasizes the diagnostic and prognostic value of dynamic acquisitions for IDH-mutant HGGs.
