Early brain scan study after glioblastoma surgery
This study tests whether it is safe and possible to do a special brain scan (nuclear imaging) within the first 3 days after surgery for glioblastoma. It may help doctors understand how well the tumor was removed and guide future treatments.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT07284563RecruitingPhase 2
Ultra-low dose bone scan imaging study
This trial tests a much smaller amount of radiation during a PET scan to see if it can still show bone issues clearly. You might join if you need a bone scan and want to try a lower radiation approach.
Englewood, New JerseyAges 18–120 - NCT07284589RecruitingPhase 2
Ultralow dose pet scan for certain tumors
This trial tests a new way to take PET scan pictures using a very low amount of a radioactive tracer that targets a protein called SSTR2. It is designed to see if these scans can work well while reducing radiation exposure for patients with certain types of tumors.
Englewood, New JerseyAges 18–120 - NCT07285564Recruiting
Using a special PET scan to check cancer removal during head and neck surgery
This study tests whether a special PET scan (micro-PET-CT) taken just after tumor removal can help confirm that no cancer cells are left behind. It is for patients with head and neck cancers who are scheduled for surgery.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT07300514RecruitingPhase 3
Golidocitinib vs placebo for T-cell lymphoma maintenance
This trial tests if taking golidocitinib pills after first treatment helps keep peripheral T-cell lymphoma from coming back. You'll either get the study drug or a placebo (no active drug), and your doctor will watch how you do.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07301827Recruiting
New PET imaging for kidney cancer diagnosis
This study tests a new kind of PET scan that might better detect kidney cancer. It involves an injection of a special imaging agent and a scan to see if the cancer shows up clearly.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07306052Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation to help walk again after injury
This trial tests whether placing a small device on the spinal cord can help people with spinal cord injuries regain the ability to walk. It is designed for those who have had a traumatic injury and still have some movement in their upper body.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 16–70 - NCT07306598Recruiting
PET imaging for tau-related brain diseases
This trial uses a special imaging agent called [18F]NIDF to take pictures of tau protein clumps in the brain, which are linked to Alzheimer's and other memory or movement disorders. It may help doctors see these changes more clearly.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT07335900Recruiting
Studying heart healing after TAVI with FAPI-PET scan
This study uses a special type of PET scan (FAPI-PET) to see how the heart heals after a less invasive valve replacement procedure called TAVI. It aims to help doctors better understand the changes in heart tissue after treatment for aortic stenosis.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07337850Recruiting
Testing 68Ga-FAPI PET scan in biliary cancers
This trial is testing a new type of PET scan (called 68Ga-FAPI) to see if it can better detect biliary tract cancers, including advanced or recurring gallbladder cancer and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. It may help doctors find cancer more accurately, which could guide better treatment decisions.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18–90 - NCT07342231Recruiting
FAPi PET scan for pancreatic cancer
This trial uses a special PET scan (FAPi PET) to see if it can help spot pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma better than standard scans. It may offer a more precise way to check the extent of the disease.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18 years+ - NCT07363382RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing GRPR PET Scan for Prostate Cancer
This study tests a new imaging method (GRPR PET) to help better see and stage prostate cancer. If you have prostate cancer, this scan may give doctors more detail about where the cancer is located.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–90 - NCT07365696Recruiting
Fatigue and brain fog after stem cell transplant
This trial looks at the causes of fatigue and cognitive problems (like memory or concentration issues) after a stem cell transplant. It uses old PET scans to study possible damage in the brain.
StockholmAges 20–75 - NCT07367815RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cells from fat tissue for Alzheimer's disease
This trial tests whether stem cells from donated fat tissue can help people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. It combines infusions of these cells with standard care, and includes brain scans and memory tests to see if the treatment is safe and effective.
ToulouseAges 50–85 - NCT07383246RecruitingPhase 3
FAPI-guided surgery for newly diagnosed medullary thyroid cancer
This trial tests whether a special imaging agent (FAPI) can help surgeons remove medullary thyroid cancer more precisely during your first surgery. It is for people who have not yet been treated and are scheduled for surgery within 30 days.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT01730781Recruiting
PET scan study to image cannabinoid receptors in the brain
This study uses a special brain scan (PET) to measure cannabinoid receptors—areas in the brain that interact with cannabis-like chemicals. It may help researchers better understand how these receptors relate to conditions such as schizophrenia, PTSD, opioid use disorder, or early psychosis risk.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–55 - NCT01542879RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MR scan for cancer staging without radiation in children and adults
This study tests a radiation-free whole-body MRI method to help doctors stage (find and measure) certain cancers. It may reduce radiation exposure compared with scans that use X-rays or radioactive tracers, while still checking how far cancer has spread.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 6–40 - NCT01887340RecruitingPhase 2
PET-guided treatment for seminoma based on scan response
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment plan guided by a PET scan over time in people with seminoma after testicle removal. It aims to tailor therapy based on how cancer shows up on the scan, potentially helping avoid unnecessary treatment intensity.
Villejuif, Val de MarneAges 18 years+ - NCT02290834Recruiting

PET-CT scan study for head and neck cancer before radiotherapy
This study uses PET-CT scans (a type of imaging that highlights active cancer cells) in people with a specific kind of head and neck cancer. The goal is to see how well the first scan identifies tumors that should be checked again with a second scan, to better guide care with radiotherapy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pet?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 590 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.
