PET scan imaging study for solid tumors using a new probe
This trial tests a new imaging agent that targets a protein called B7-H3 found on many solid tumors. It uses PET/CT to help doctors see and stage tumors more clearly.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06548529Recruiting
HER2 PET/CT scan to predict treatment response in bladder cancer
This trial uses a special PET/CT scan to see if your bladder cancer has HER2 proteins, which can help predict how well you will respond to a targeted antibody-drug conjugate treatment. It is for people with advanced bladder cancer who have already tried certain standard therapies.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT03827317Recruiting
Scan to see HER2 in breast cancer with a new tracer
This study tests a new PET scan tracer to show where HER2-positive breast cancer cells may be in the body. It may help doctors better “map” HER2 activity, including in people with HER2-positive or HER2-negative cancer.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07764679RecruitingPhase 3
Brain scan to detect Alzheimer's plaques
This study tests a new PET brain scan that uses a special dye to show amyloid plaques, which are linked to Alzheimer's disease. It may help doctors see if your memory problems are caused by Alzheimer's or something else.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40 years+ - NCT07761910RecruitingPhase 2
Study of heart effects of radiation therapy using PET-CT for stage III lung cancer
This study looks at whether PET-CT scans can help detect heart damage caused by radiation therapy in patients with stage III lung cancer. If you're getting chemotherapy and radiation together, you may participate to help doctors find ways to reduce heart risks.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07758660Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Brain scan study for Alzheimer's research
This study uses brain scans (PET) to look at changes in the brain that may be related to memory problems or Alzheimer's disease. It aims to improve understanding of the disease and may help develop better treatments.
New York, New YorkAges 50 years+ - NCT05512403RecruitingPhase 3
Test of FDOPA PET scan to evaluate a brain tumor
This study checks how well an FDOPA PET scan can identify and describe a specific type of brain tumor at the beginning. Results may help doctors decide on the best next steps for diagnosis and treatment planning.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT07741006Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
PET imaging study for adults with solid tumors
This study tests a new PET imaging agent called [68Ga]Ga-ELI411 to help see tumors more clearly. It is for adults with solid tumors who are already scheduled for a standard PET scan, and may help doctors better understand and manage their cancer.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07728942RecruitingPhase 1
SLR-108 PET imaging study for metastatic solid tumors
This trial uses a special imaging agent called SLR-108 to take detailed PET scans of your cancer. It aims to see if this scan can help doctors better understand metastatic solid tumors that have grown after previous treatment.

Adaptive radiation plus pembrolizumab for stage IV lung cancer
This trial tests a personalized (“adaptive”) radiation plan combined with pembrolizumab, and possibly chemotherapy, for advanced stage IV lung cancer. It aims to improve cancer control while carefully managing side effects, including in patients with certain brain metastases.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07702292RecruitingPhase 2
68Ga-BED003 PET scan for certain cancers
This trial tests a new PET imaging agent that targets a protein called FAP, which appears in many solid tumors. The goal is to see if this scan can better find and measure cancer in the body.

Blood test to guide early stopping of prostate cancer therapy
This trial uses a blood test to measure tumor DNA and see if men with advanced prostate cancer can safely stop treatment with a drug called 177Lu-PSMA-617 earlier than usual, or switch to chemotherapy. It may help reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.

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.
