Testing PSMA PET/CT scans for metastatic bladder or skin cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This Phase 1 study tests how well a PSMA PET/CT scan can find cancer spots in people with metastatic bladder cancer (urothelial cancer) or metastatic melanoma. It may help doctors better see where cancer is and guide next steps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re 18 or older
- You have metastatic bladder cancer or metastatic melanoma confirmed by biopsy (pathology report)
- A doctor has at least one suspicious cancer spot that can be seen on PET/CT (FDG PET/CT and/or CT, depending on the group)
- You can do the scan: you can lie flat, stay still, and tolerate PET scanning
- Your overall health/energy level is not too low (Karnofsky ≥50% or ECOG/WHO 2 or less)
- You agree to sign informed consent

This Phase 2 study tests an imaging scan called 18F-PSMA PET/CT to find tumors that have a specific marker (PSMA). It may help doctors better locate and evaluate PSMA-positive cancers.
This study is looking at how well a special type of PET/CT scan (called PSMA PET/CT) can see cancer in people who have or may have certain tumors. It may help doctors better understand and track the disease.
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.
This trial tests if a special scan (PSMA-PET) can help plan surgery for melanoma that has spread to lymph nodes. It may help doctors remove all cancer more accurately.
This study uses a special type of scan called a PSMA PET to see how well different prostate cancer treatments are working. It is for people with advanced prostate cancer who are about to start or change systemic therapy.
This study looks at how well two different PSMA PET scans work for men with advanced prostate cancer. The scans help doctors see where the cancer is, which can guide treatment decisions and help you and your doctor plan next steps.
