Recruiting studies
- NCT04706910RecruitingPhase 3
PET scan study to optimize imaging in several diseases
This trial improves a special PET scan (a type of brain/body imaging) using 18F-DOPA, to better show how certain conditions behave in the body. If you or your child may have one of the listed conditions, the study may help your doctors get clearer scan results.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges Any age - 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 - NCT02019706RecruitingPhase 2
PET/CT scans to find the cause of ectopic Cushing syndrome
This trial tests several special imaging scans to help doctors locate the source of hormone overproduction in ectopic Cushing syndrome. It may help confirm where the problem is so treatment can be better targeted.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT06667726RecruitingPhase 2
New PET scan for better brain tumor care
This trial studies a special PET scan called 18F-DOPA PET/CT to see if it can help doctors better manage brain tumors. It may be used before surgery, for radiation planning, or when MRI results are unclear.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07274397Recruiting
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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying 18F-DOPA?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5 recruiting studies that include 18F-DOPA, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a 18F-DOPA trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is 18F-DOPA an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether 18F-DOPA or a specific trial is right for you.
