FAPI PET RDRC Trial Summary

This trial is looking at a new way to image cancer using a tracer called 68Ga-FAPi-46. The tracer is taken up by some cancers, and can be seen with PET imaging. This may provide additional information about various cancers in the future.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with various cancers, including brain, bladder, testicular, skin, thyroid, liver cancer and more. Participants must be able to stay still for imaging procedures up to an hour and are scheduled for surgery or biopsy of the tumor. Pregnant or nursing individuals or those starting new cancer therapies before the study's PET/CT scans cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a new imaging technique using 68Ga-FAPi-46 PET/CT to see how well it shows where FAPI tracer accumulates in both normal and cancer tissues. This could help understand different cancers better by visualizing a protein associated with tumor-surrounding cells.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
As this is an imaging study involving PET/CT scans with tracers like Gallium Ga 68 FAPi-46 and not drug treatments, side effects may include discomfort from staying still during the scan and exposure to radiation typical of such diagnostic procedures.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Basic science (68GA-FAPI-46 PET/CT)Experimental Treatment4 Interventions
Patients receive 68Ga-FAPi-46 intravenously (IV), and then undergo PET/computed tomography (CT) over 20-90 minutes. On another day, patients receive 18F-FDG and then undergo PET/computed tomography (CT) according to standard of care procedures (if applicable).
