Study Summary

This trial will use a radioactive compound to detect changes in a patient's cancer immunotherapy response.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who are fit enough to give consent and have a reasonable level of physical function. They should be planning to receive immunotherapy before surgery aimed at curing their cancer. Women able to have children must test negative for pregnancy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
[18F]F-AraG Injection is being tested as an imaging agent in patients with NSCLC undergoing PD-1/PD-L1-directed therapy. The goal is to see if it can detect changes in the immune system's response against tumor cells when treated with immunotherapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from [18F]F-AraG are not detailed, but as a radioactive compound used for PET imaging, there may be exposure-related risks such as allergic reactions or radiation-associated hazards.
