New SPECT imaging for brain tumors
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new imaging agent (99mTc-CNDG) to see if it can help doctors see brain tumors better on a SPECT/CT scan. It might provide more information than standard scans and could help guide treatment decisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a brain tumor diagnosed by a doctor.
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must be able to have surgery or a biopsy to confirm the tumor type.
- You must not have diabetes that requires insulin, and your blood sugar must be under 7 mmol/L before the scan.
- You must not have severe liver or kidney problems.
- You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You must not have severe anxiety in enclosed spaces (claustrophobia).
- You must not be currently receiving radiation therapy or chemotherapy.

This trial tests a new imaging method (68Ga-DOTA-mPNE PET/CT) to see if it can help detect cancers. It's for people who haven't had chemotherapy or radiation yet and will have a biopsy or surgery.
This trial tests a new imaging method that uses a special dye to highlight a protein called Trop-2 found on some brain tumor cells. The goal is to see if this dye can help doctors see the tumor more clearly before surgery, which may improve surgical planning.
This trial tests a new type of imaging scan that uses a special tracer to help doctors see solid tumors more clearly. The scan may help improve how tumors are detected and monitored during treatment.
This trial tests a new PET scan tracer to see inflammation in brain tumors that have not been treated with radiation. It may help doctors better understand and monitor these tumors.
This study tests a new imaging agent (99mTc-FDPH46) to see if it can help doctors better see solid tumors on a SPECT/CT scan. It is for people with suspected or confirmed solid tumors who are in fairly good health.
This study examines how a specialized CT scanner (Spectral CT) captures detailed images of brain tumors. Researchers will review your imaging scans to understand how well this technology helps doctors see and understand brain tumors.
