Study Summary
This trial tests new imaging techniques to help understand diseases better.
Who is the study for?
Adults with measurable prostate cancer or neuroendocrine tumors, willing to undergo PET/CT scans and have their records reviewed for 24 months. Women of childbearing potential must test negative for pregnancy. Exclusions include exceeding weight limits, recent participation in other clinical studies, known allergies to study materials, and claustrophobia.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing four different single-tracer PET/CT exams (FDG, Cu64-DOTATATE, Ga68-DOTATATE, PSMA) on patients with prostate cancer or neuroendocrine tumors. The goal is to gather data for developing dual-tracer imaging techniques.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions to the tracers used during the PET/CT exams such as allergic reactions or hypersensitivity. Discomfort from lying flat during scanning could also occur.
