Recruiting studies
- NCT05835570Recruiting
PET scan using an integrin marker to find cancer
This trial uses a special PET/CT scan that targets a protein on some cancer cells to help detect and evaluate malignant tumors. It may help doctors better map tumors before any cancer treatment starts.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–85 - NCT05838547Recruiting
PET-MR scan study for narrowing in the carotid artery
This study tests how well a special PET-MR scan can help evaluate carotid artery plaque in people who have significant narrowing but no symptoms. It may help researchers better understand disease activity to guide treatment decisions like medication alone or medication plus surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05847192Recruiting
Testing brain-signal networks in Alzheimer’s with hallucinations
This study looks at “tau” (a brain protein) and brain-signal patterns in people with Alzheimer’s disease who have psychotic symptoms like hallucinations or delusions. It may help researchers understand what’s happening in the brain and how to better target these symptoms.
Manhasset, New YorkAges 65–85 - NCT05888532RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a copper-based scan and treatment in advanced cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial studies a copper-labeled medicine called 64Cu-GRIP B in people with advanced, metastatic cancers. It may help doctors see where cancer is and how well the drug works, especially alongside immune checkpoint therapy for some cancer types.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05889312Recruiting
PET scan to measure early response to cancer therapy
This trial studies how well an imaging scan called 18F-FSPG PET shows whether head and neck or lung cancer responds to standard chemoradiotherapy. It may help doctors understand early signs of treatment success or failure.
LondonAges 16 years+ - NCT05942716RecruitingPhase 2
Testing how serotonin changes impulsivity in Tourette
This Phase 2 study looks at whether changing serotonin activity can affect impulsivity and related brain function in people with Tourette disorder. You may be asked to continue aripiprazole and complete brain scans that test how your brain responds during tasks.
BronAges 18–65 - NCT05948657Recruiting
PSMA PET-CT scan for men on prostate cancer surveillance
This study checks whether a special prostate scan called PSMA PET-CT (along with standard monitoring scans) can help guide care while you are on “active surveillance” instead of immediate treatment. It may help doctors track low-risk prostate cancer changes more accurately over time.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05957250Recruiting
PET scan study to better image pancreatic and bile duct cancer
This study uses a special PET scan drug (Ga-FAPI-46) to create clearer pictures of pancreatic and bile duct cancers. It may help doctors decide on the best next steps—especially before surgery—by checking tumor size and looking for spread.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05982496RecruitingPhase 2
PET/MRI scan for certain breast cancer types
This trial is studying if a special PET/MRI scan using a tracer called 18F FES can help doctors decide the best treatment for people with Luminal A or hormone-receptor-positive lobular breast cancer. The scan looks at estrogen receptors to see if your cancer might respond to hormone therapy.
Milan, MIAges 18 years+ - NCT05994014Recruiting
Comparing two heart scans for artery blockages
This study compares two types of heart scans to see which one better finds blockages in the arteries of people with chest discomfort or shortness of breath when active. You will have both a special CT scan and a PET/CT scan to check the health of your heart arteries.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05996432RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Using imaging to guide radiation therapy for head and neck cancer or brain tumors
This trial uses a special PET scan tracer called 18F-FMISO to see areas of low oxygen (hypoxia) in your tumor. The results may help doctors adjust your radiation plan to target those areas more precisely.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06003556RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA-guided ablation for prostate cancer
This trial tests a targeted treatment for prostate cancer using PSMA imaging to guide ablation (removal) of the tumor. It may help men with early-stage, localized cancer that hasn't spread.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 50 years+ - NCT06014515RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Single injection PET scan to study body metabolism
This study uses a single injection and a special type of PET scan to look at how your body's tissues use fuel (metabolism). It helps researchers learn more about normal and disease-related changes in the heart, liver, and other organs.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06017973Recruiting
Imaging tests for possible non-convulsive status epilepticus
This trial uses advanced imaging scans (PET-MRI) to help doctors better understand and manage a type of seizure that doesn't cause convulsions. It may help improve diagnosis and treatment for people with this condition.
LeuvenAges 16 years+ - NCT06019130RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab for newly diagnosed nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether the immunotherapy drug nivolumab (Opdivo) can help treat nasopharyngeal cancer in both children and adults. It is for people who have just been diagnosed and have not yet received any cancer treatment.
AachenAges 3 years+ - NCT06036381Recruiting
Glioma imaging study
This study looks at past medical images (like MRI scans) of people with glioma (a type of brain tumor) or conditions that look like glioma, taken at Tata Memorial Centre. The goal is to better understand these tumors using advanced computer analysis of the images.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 1 year+ - NCT06036394Recruiting
AI for brain and spine radiation planning study
This study uses artificial intelligence to review radiation plans for patients with brain or spine tumors treated at Tata Memorial Centre between 2010 and 2022. It may help improve how radiation therapy is planned in the future.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 1 year+ - NCT06048094RecruitingPhase 1
PET scan study for brain metastases treated with radiosurgery
This trial tests a special PET scan (18F-fluciclovine) to see how well it shows brain metastases after stereotactic radiosurgery (a precise form of radiation). It may help doctors better understand treatment effects.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06047561Recruiting
Scottish Aortic Stenosis Imaging Study
This study looks at how aortic stenosis (a narrowing of the heart valve) changes over time using imaging and blood tests. It may help doctors better understand and treat this condition.
EdinburghAges 50 years+ - NCT06050694RecruitingPhase 2
Testing glofitamab plus chemo for untreated DLBCL
This trial tests a new drug called glofitamab combined with standard Pola-R-CHP chemotherapy for people with untreated DLBCL. The goal is to see if using PET scans and blood tests early on can guide treatment and improve outcomes.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06057844Recruiting
PET scan to detect active blood clots
This study uses a special PET scan to see if it can detect active blood clots. It is looking for healthy volunteers to help test the imaging method, not people who already have a clot.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT06059469RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA scan for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial uses a special scan (PSMA-PET/CT) to see if your breast cancer makes a protein called PSMA. The results might help guide your future treatment.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06059690RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Imaging brain tumors to guide glioblastoma treatment
This trial studies a special imaging scan that combines MRI and PET to find active tumor areas in patients with glioblastoma. It aims to see if the scan can help identify the most aggressive parts of the tumor for surgery.

PET scan and EBV test guided treatment for nasal NK/T cell lymphoma
This trial uses PET scans and EBV DNA levels to personalize treatment for patients with early-stage nasal NK/T cell lymphoma. It aims to reduce side effects by adjusting therapy based on how well the cancer responds.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pet?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 591 recruiting pet studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a pet trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a pet trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
