Recruiting studies
- NCT06565247RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing PET and MRI scans before prostate cancer surgery
This trial tests if a special PET scan (PSMA-PET) plus MRI is better than MRI alone at finding the full extent of high-risk prostate cancer before surgery. It aims to improve surgical planning by checking scan results against the removed prostate tissue.
MalmöAges 18 years+ - NCT06584123Recruiting
Molecular imaging of pituitary adenoma with 18F-FET PET
This study uses a special PET scan (18F-FET) to get clearer images of pituitary adenomas (non-cancerous growths at the base of the brain). It is for people who have already had one type of PET scan and can help doctors understand the tumor better without invasive procedures.
Cambridge, CambridgeshireAges 18–100 - NCT06586047RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PSMA PET scan for triple-negative breast cancer
This trial uses a special PET scan to see if PSMA, a protein on some cancer cells, can help detect triple-negative breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–90 - NCT07213219Recruiting
PET-MRI scan for Parkinson's with sleep behavior disorder
This trial uses a combined PET and MRI scan to study the brain's reward system in people with Parkinson's disease who also have REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD). It aims to understand how the brain changes and may help guide future treatments.
Clermont-FerrandAges 45–80 - NCT06608160Recruiting
PET scan to tell if lung cancer is truly growing after immunotherapy
This trial uses a special PET scan (68Ga-grazytracer) to find out whether growth seen on scans after immunotherapy is real cancer growth or a harmless reaction called pseudoprogression. It helps doctors decide if your treatment is working.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06618872Recruiting
Comparing tau and amyloid PET scans for memory problems
This study compares two types of brain PET scans (tau and amyloid) to see which one better helps diagnose memory problems. You may be eligible if you have mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia and your doctor has already ordered an amyloid PET scan.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 50–85 - NCT06623487Recruiting
PET scan to guide immunotherapy for stage III lung cancer
This trial uses a special scan (68Ga-grazytracer PET) to see how well immunotherapy works for stage III non-small cell lung cancer before surgery or radiation. It aims to help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06634628RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a new brain scan tracer for Huntington's disease
This trial tests a new radioactive tracer called [11C]CHDI-00491009 that may show mutant huntingtin protein in the brain using a PET scan. It aims to find out if the tracer is safe and helps see Huntington's disease changes. If you have early-stage Huntington's or are a healthy volunteer, you may be able to join.
LeuvenAges 18–64 - NCT07108244Enrolling by invitation
Better brain scan for small pituitary tumors in Cushing's disease
This study tests a special type of brain scan (PET-MRI) to better find tiny pituitary tumors causing Cushing's disease. It may help people whose standard MRI didn't show a clear tumor.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06757569Recruiting
New PET scan for detecting amyloid plaques in the brain
This study tests a newer, shorter PET scan to see if it can detect amyloid plaques (sticky protein clumps linked to memory loss) as well as the standard scan. It may help diagnose cognitive problems with less time in the scanner.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06792318Recruiting
Testing FAPI PET-CT to Diagnose Endometriosis
This study tests whether a special type of PET-CT scan (FAPI PET-CT) can help doctors see endometriosis more clearly before surgery. It is for people who are already planning to have laparoscopic surgery to diagnose or treat endometriosis.
SafedAges 18–45 - NCT06814587Recruiting
New imaging for heart muscle damage after a heart attack
This study uses special imaging scans (MRI and PET) to look at the health of the heart muscle in people with advanced heart failure caused by blocked arteries. The goal is to better predict recovery after bypass surgery.
Dallas, TexasAges 20–80 - NCT06830356Recruiting
PET-guided radiation for high-risk meningiomas
This trial uses a special PET scan to find active tumor areas and then delivers a stronger dose of radiation to those spots. It is for people with aggressive or returning meningiomas who have not had brain radiation before.
Aviano, PordenoneAges 16 years+ - NCT06833229Recruiting
Can a PET scan predict if immunotherapy is working?
This study uses a special PET-CT scan early in your treatment to see if immunotherapy (with or without chemotherapy) is working against your advanced lung cancer. The goal is to find out faster if the treatment is helping.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT06835426Recruiting
Imaging removed tissue during cancer surgery
This study tests a high-resolution PET-CT scanner that takes pictures of tissue removed during surgery to help doctors see if all the cancer has been removed. You might qualify if you are having surgery for a range of cancers including breast, prostate, thyroid, skin, gastrointestinal, or brain tumors.
Ghent, Oost VlaanderenAges 18 years+ - NCT06859203Recruiting
PET scan study for men with rising PSA after prostate cancer treatment
This study tests a newer type of PET scan (fluciclovine) in men whose previous PSMA PET scan was negative or unclear. It aims to find if the fluciclovine PET can better detect where the cancer has returned, helping guide treatment decisions.
Augsburg, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06862856Recruiting
PET Scan for Men With Very Low PSA After Prostate Surgery
This trial tests a PET scan (flotufolastat F 18) to find tiny prostate cancer cells in men whose PSA is very low but still rising after prostate removal. It may help guide further treatment decisions.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06875765Recruiting
Long-term brain imaging study for Parkinson's patients
This study uses brain scans to look at nerve endings in people with Parkinson's disease over time. It may help researchers understand how the disease progresses.
LeuvenAges 30 years+ - NCT06877949Recruiting
PET/CT vs. CT Scan for Monitoring Metastatic Breast Cancer
This trial compares two types of scans (PET/CT and CT) to see which is better at monitoring metastatic breast cancer. If you are starting your first treatment for breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body, this study may help determine the best way to track your disease.

PET scan for HER2 breast cancer during treatment
This trial tests a new imaging test (a special PET scan) that can see HER2 proteins in breast cancer tumors. It is for people who are already getting treatment before surgery to see if the scan helps doctors understand how well the therapy is working.

Prostate cancer blood test vs. PSMA-PET scan study
This study is checking how well a blood test (liquid biopsy) can find prostate cancer and compare it to a special PET scan (PSMA-PET). If you qualify, you might help improve how we track prostate cancer without needing more invasive biopsies.

- 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.
