Digital and blood markers linked to brain scans in older adults
This study is looking for older adults (60–90) who are either cognitively normal, have mild cognitive impairment (MCI), or have mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's dementia. It aims to see how digital tests and blood-based markers relate to brain scans (amyloid and tau PET). You will need a study partner, undergo MRI and PET scans, and give blood samples.

Testing New PET/MRI Scan in Large DCIS
This study tests a new imaging method that combines a special PET scan (FAPI) with MRI to see if it can better find hidden invasive cancer in people with large areas of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). It aims to improve surgical planning and avoid second surgeries.
Essen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06526299RecruitingPhase 2
Higher dose of targeted radiation for prostate cancer with low PSMA levels
This trial tests a higher dose of a radioactive drug (177Lu-PSMA-617) for men whose prostate cancer has spread and does not produce much of a protein called PSMA on scans. The goal is to see if a stronger dose can work better than the standard dose.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06236048Recruiting
Brain energy and glutamate in schizophrenia
This study uses brain scans (MRI and PET) to look at energy use and a brain chemical called glutamate in people with schizophrenia. It compares healthy volunteers to those with well-controlled schizophrenia and those with hard-to-treat schizophrenia to understand the biology better.
LondonAges 18–65 - NCT06503146RecruitingPhase 2
New imaging tracer for detecting various cancers
This trial tests a new imaging agent, [18F]FAPI-74, which might help detect certain cancers more clearly. The scan looks for a protein called fibroblast activation protein (FAP) that is often found in tumors. If you have one of the listed cancers and are about to start treatment, this study could help doctors see where the cancer is and how it responds to therapy.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06508567Recruiting
MRI-Guided Internal Radiation for Returning Prostate Cancer
This trial tests a new way to use a type of internal radiation (high-dose-rate brachytherapy) guided by MRI to treat prostate cancer that has come back in the same area after previous radiation therapy. It is designed to be more precise and hopefully safer while using the latest PSMA PET scans to make sure the cancer hasn't spread.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06474806RecruitingPhase 2
PET scan for untreated prostate cancer
This trial tests a new type of PET scan that looks for a protein called uPAR on prostate cancer cells. It might help doctors see your cancer more clearly without needing surgery or treatment first.
Herlev, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT06470282RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Drug combo plus radiation for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab) plus radiation therapy for people with bladder cancer that has grown into the muscle layer. The goal is to see if this treatment can kill the cancer while avoiding the need for bladder removal surgery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06474533Recruiting
FET PET for evaluating brain tumors
This study tests a special imaging agent called fluoroethyltyrosine (FET) to see if it can better detect brain tumors on PET scans. It may help doctors decide if a tumor has come back after treatment or better guide initial biopsy or surgery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 4 years+ - NCT06453915RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Brain PET scan for inflammation in fatty liver disease
This study uses a special PET scan to look for inflammation in the brain related to fatty liver disease. It may help researchers understand how liver health affects brain function.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06439914RecruitingPhase 1
New PET scan to see immune response to lung cancer treatment
This study tests if a new type of PET scan can see changes in your immune system when you receive immunotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer. It may help doctors understand how well your treatment is working.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06439992Recruiting
New PET scan tracer to detect Alzheimer's in the brain
This study tests a new PET imaging tracer called Fluselenamyl to see how well it shows amyloid plaques (a protein linked to Alzheimer's) in the brain. It may help improve early diagnosis for people with Alzheimer's or support research in healthy volunteers.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06408116RecruitingPhase 2
FAPI-PET Scan for Esophageal Cancer Surgery Planning
This trial tests whether a special PET scan called FAPI-PET can better show the edges of esophageal tumors before surgery. It may help doctors plan more precise surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pet?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 576 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.
