Pet scans for advanced prostate or salivary gland cancer
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study uses special PET scans to get a detailed picture of prostate or salivary gland cancer that is getting worse. The scans may help doctors see the cancer more clearly and plan better treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have prostate cancer or salivary gland cancer that is confirmed by a biopsy.
- Your cancer must be showing signs of progression, like a rising PSA or new spots on scans.
- Your liver and kidney function must be within acceptable limits.
- If you have salivary gland cancer, it must be advanced or spread, and you must not have had certain prior treatments.

This study tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (68Ga-MY6349) to better see prostate cancer in the body. It may help doctors find cancer that has come back or spread, so you can get the right treatment sooner.
This study follows people with prostate cancer whose PSA blood test has risen again after standard treatment. It uses an approved PET scan tracer to look for cancer spread, which may help doctors understand how the disease is progressing.
This study tests a new imaging method (PET scan) that uses a special tracer to find prostate cancer cells, whether it's the first diagnosis or a recurrence after treatment. The goal is to see how well this imaging works for locating cancer in the body.
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.
This study tests a new type of PET scan (a detailed imaging test) to find out if prostate cancer has come back after treatment. You'll receive an injection of a special tracer and then have a scan that takes pictures to help doctors locate any cancer.
This study uses a PET/CT scan to learn how and why prostate cancer becomes resistant to treatment. It may help researchers better match future therapy choices for people whose prostate cancer is progressing.
