Brief Summary: Primary Objective will be to evaluate the use of Ga-67 citrate as an alternative radiopharmaceutical for CSF imaging
Secondary Objective will be to evaluate the biodistribution pharmacokinetics and radiation dosimetry of In 111 DTPA and gallium-67 after intrathecal injection during remission of leptomeningeal metastasis LM and during LM occurrence remission and recurrence
Detailed Description: In-111 DTPA is a radioactive dye that is standardly used to check the flow of CSF Ga-67 citrate has been used to detect inflammation and tumors in other parts of the body and researchers want to learn if it is also able to detect tumors in the brain and spinal cord

Before you can be enrolled in this study you will have screening tests These tests will help the doctor decide if you are eligible to take part in this study Blood about 1-2 tablespoons will be drawn for routine tests This routine blood draw will include a pregnancy test for women who are able to have children To be eligible to take part in this study the pregnancy test must be negative

If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study you will be assigned to 1 of 3 groups The group you are assigned to will depend on whether tumor cells were found in the CSF during your last spinal fluid exam If you were found to have cancer cells in the CSF and you have had no earlier treatment for this type of disease the first 5 participants will be assigned to Group A and will be given Ga-67 citrate injection alone in the baseline study The next 5 participants who have cancer cells in the CSF and have had no earlier treatment will be assigned to Group B Group B will have Ga-67 and In 111 DTPA injection in the baseline study Otherwise if the tumors in the CSF have been treated and are now cleared from the CSF you will be assigned to Group C and will receive standard follow-up care

At the beginning of the study you will have an imaging session This first imaging session is called the baseline session For the imaging you will lie on a gamma camera table Depending on which group you are in one or both of the radioactive dyes will be injected into your CSF through the Ommaya reservoir If you are in Group B or C both In-111 DTPA and Ga-67 citrate will be injected over about 2-4 minutes total If you are in Group A Ga-67 citrate alone will be injected over about 2 minutes

For participants who are 2-17 years old the doses of In-111 DTPA and Ga-67 citrate will be adjusted to the surface area of your body a measurement of your body size

During the hour immediately following the injections your head neck and back areas will be imaged scanned in order to see how the CSF flows After that you will have scans of your entire body performed in order to see how quickly the radioactive dyes leave from different parts of your body These whole-body scans will each last 20 minutes These scans 1 each time will occur at 1-2 3-4 6-8 22-24 28-32 48 and 72 hours after the injections You will have blood samples collected before injection and during each imaging session in order to measure how much radiation is absorbed by different parts of your brain spine and other organs These blood samples less than ΒΌ teaspoon each time will be drawn during each of the whole-body scans

If you are in Group A or B you will receive standard follow-up care for up to 52 weeks after the baseline imaging session This is in order to check the status of the disease If the cancer goes into remission no tumor cells are found in CSF at any time during the 52 weeks you will have a follow-up imaging session The follow-up imaging session will include the same procedures and In-111 DTPA andor Ga-67 citrate injections as the baseline imaging session

If you are in Group C you will receive standard follow-up care for up to 52 weeks after the baseline imaging session If the cancer reappears at any time during the 52 weeks you will have a follow-up imaging session The follow-up imaging session will include the same procedures and In-111 DTPA and Ga-67 citrate injections as the baseline imaging session

Whether you are in Group A B or C after your last follow-up imaging session your participation in this study will be over If your cancer clears from the spinal fluid the records from your routine visit to the neuro-oncology clinic will be reviewed to follow your progress until 30 days after the radioisotope injection for your last imaging session Researchers will review your medical records for potential side effects If you do not have a clinical visit within a week from that 30th day the study chair will contact you by phone concerning these matters

This is an investigational study In-111 DTPA is commercially available and FDA approved for injection into the CSF Although Ga-67 citrate is FDA approved for injection into a vein it is not FDA approved for injection into the CSF It is commercially available but injecting it into the CSF has only been authorized for use in research Up to 20 patients will take part in this study All will be enrolled at M D Anderson
