Study Summary

This trial is testing a new imaging agent, [18F]FluorThanatrace, to see if it can improve imaging techniques in patients with breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with breast cancer who are candidates for primary breast surgery and have a tumor of at least 1.0 cm visible on imaging. It's not for those pregnant, breastfeeding, previously treated for their breast cancer, unable to tolerate imaging procedures, or with conditions that may compromise safety or participation.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
[18F]FluorThanatrace by PET/CT is being tested to see if it can improve imaging in patients undergoing biopsy or surgery for breast cancer. This new radioactive tracer might help detect enzyme activity related to cancer growth when used with PET/CT scans.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from the radioactive tracer [18F]FluorThanatrace could include reactions at the injection site, allergic reactions to the compound, and exposure to radiation which carries a risk of causing future cancers.
