Targeted imaging and therapy for metastatic cancers
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new imaging scan and a targeted radiation treatment for certain cancers that have spread. First, a special PET scan finds tumors that light up; then, if eligible, you may receive a treatment that targets those same tumors.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older.
- You must have one of these cancer types that has spread: GU, GI, GYN, breast, head and neck, or cervical/uterine cancer.
- Your cancer must have gotten worse after at least one previous standard treatment.
- You must have a tumor that can be measured on a scan (at least 1 cm in size).
- You must be able to lie still for 30–60 minutes for a scan.

This trial tests a new targeted radioactive drug that seeks out a specific marker on lung cancer cells. It first uses a low-dose imaging scan to see if the cancer cells have this marker, then gives a higher-dose treatment to destroy those cells.
This early study tests a two-step approach: a special PET/CT scan to find pancreatic cancer, followed by a targeted radiation medicine to attack it. It may help researchers learn whether this targeted approach is safe and able to reach pancreatic tumors after standard treatment.
This trial tests a new imaging agent, [68Ga]Ga DOTA-5G, to see if it can better detect invasive lobular breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It involves a PET/CT scan and may help doctors understand the extent of your cancer.
This study tests two new radioactive drugs designed to find and image advanced breast or prostate cancer. The drugs use special imaging scans (PET and SPECT) to locate tumors and may help guide future treatment decisions.
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 uses a special PET scan with a new tracer called 68Ga-DOTA-BLP to spot cancer and its spread in the body. It aims to see if this scan can find tumors in lymph nodes or other areas without needing more painful biopsies.
