68Ga PSMA PET-CT for kidney cancer spread
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study checks whether a special PET-CT scan using 68Ga PSMA can better find where renal cell carcinoma has spread. It may help doctors plan the right next steps by confirming suspected metastases on CT.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have renal cell carcinoma that is stage III or IV (by the AJCC staging system).
- Your contrast CT scan showed suspicious areas that could be metastases (spread).
- You are able to lie flat for the PET-CT scan.
- You do not have known problems with veins (peripheral or central) that would interfere with scanning.
- Your kidney function is adequate (no major kidney impairment or ongoing hemodialysis).

This trial uses a special PET scan called PSMA to see if it can better detect kidney cancer that has spread. It may help find tumors that other scans miss.
This study tests a new type of PET scan that uses a tracer called 68Ga-RCCB6 to see kidney cancer more clearly. It compares this scan to another PET scan (68Ga-PSMA) to help doctors stage the cancer, check treatment response, and detect any return of the disease.
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.
This study looks at a PSMA-targeted PET/CT scan using 68Ga-PSMA-617 for tumors that show a specific marker (PSMA). It’s meant to help confirm or evaluate suspected or known PSMA-expressing tumors in real-life clinical practice.
This study uses a special PET/CT scan (called 68Ga-NYM096) to see if it can help find different types of cancer. The scan may help doctors get clearer pictures of where cancer is in your body.
This study looks at how well a special scan (PSMA PET/CT) works for people with cancers other than prostate cancer. If your doctor already scheduled this scan for your care, you may be able to help researchers learn more about its accuracy.
