Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to collect data and evaluate how the tumor is broken down in response to standard of care cetuximab treatment by evaluating the FDG-PET/CT scans, toxicity, see how well the FDG-PET/CT scans predict response to treatment and survival.

Primary Outcome

FDG-PET/CT images were evaluated qualitatively as well as quantitatively by one of two experienced nuclear radiologists. For quantitative analysis, SUVmax within each of the metastatic tumor sites was determined within a volume of interest around the tumor using a Siemens eSoft workstation. Up to a maximum of three target lesions(\>= 1.5 cm on the baseline CT) were identified as target lesions on the baseline FDG-PET. When multiple lesions were present, those having the greatest FDG uptake on th
