FDG and FAPI PET Scans for Advanced Colorectal Cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial uses two types of PET/CT scans (FDG and FAPI) to better see and track colorectal cancer that has spread to the belly lining (peritoneum). It aims to help doctors choose the best treatment by improving how they detect and monitor the cancer.

This trial uses two types of PET/CT scans (FDG and FAPI) to see how well chemotherapy or other treatments work before surgery for stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. The goal is to find the best way to measure treatment response and help guide your care.
This trial uses a special whole-body scan (FDG PET/CT) to see how well first-line chemotherapy is working early in people with metastatic colon/rectal cancer. It may help doctors spot whether treatment is effective sooner, so they can adjust plans if needed.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan (FAPI-PET) to see if it can better find colon cancer that has spread to lymph nodes or other parts of the body. It may help doctors plan the right treatment for you.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan (Ga68-FAPI-46) to better see if cancer from the colon, rectum, or ovary has spread to the lining of the belly. If you are already scheduled for surgery to remove these cancer spots, this scan may help your doctors plan a more complete operation.
This trial uses a special PET scan (FAPI) to detect a specific, more aggressive type of colorectal cancer (CMS4) in people who have liver tumors that can be surgically removed. The goal is to see if the scan can help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
This study uses a special type of PET/CT scan (FAPI) to get a better look at the environment around colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It may help doctors learn more about the tumor and plan treatment.
