Brain tumor imaging study for glioblastoma patients
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study uses special PET scans (fluciclovine and FDG) and advanced MRI to create a detailed metabolic profile of glioblastoma. It may help doctors better understand your tumor before surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a new brain mass that looks like glioblastoma (GBM) or a growing lesion after prior glioblastoma treatment
- Your doctor recommends surgery to remove the tumor
- You are expected to live at least 3 more months
- You are able to tolerate MRI and PET scans
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses advanced brain scans (PET and MRI) before surgery to understand how glioblastoma (an aggressive brain tumor) affects your brain's connections and thinking abilities. The goal is to help doctors better predict treatment outcomes and plan surgery more precisely.
This study looks for connections between detailed brain scans and tumor genetic features in people with glioblastoma. It may help researchers find better ways to understand your tumor and tailor future care.
This trial uses special MRI scans and a contrast agent to look at the immune environment of glioblastoma tumors. It may help doctors learn more about how the tumor responds to treatment.
This study is testing whether special MRI scans and blood tests can help tell the difference between true tumor growth (progression) and a treatment-related reaction called 'pseudoprogression' in people with glioblastoma. The goal is to make treatment decisions more accurate.
This study uses a special PET/CT scan to take detailed pictures of gliomas (a type of brain tumor). It may help doctors understand your tumor better and plan your treatment.
This early-phase study tests how well a special PET-MRI scan (using a radioactive tracer) can find and measure low-grade brain tumors. It may help doctors better track these tumors while you start or continue treatment.
