New PET scan for lymphoma and multiple myeloma
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study uses a special PET/MR scan with a tracer called 68Ga-Pentixafor to see if it can better find lymphoma and multiple myeloma spots in the body. It may help doctors get clearer pictures than standard scans.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years old or older.
- You can do everyday activities on your own (ECOG less than 2).
- You are newly diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma, or your doctor strongly suspects it from a biopsy.
- You have already had a standard FDG-PET scan at our hospital within the past week.

This study tests a new imaging agent that may help doctors see multiple myeloma more clearly. It uses a special radioactive tracer that targets a protein found on myeloma cells, which could improve diagnosis and monitoring of the disease.
This trial compares a new type of PET/MR scan (using a radioactive tracer called Ga-68 PentixaFor) with standard imaging to see if it can better detect multiple myeloma at diagnosis and during follow-up. It may help improve staging and treatment planning.
This study tests a new imaging method called CXCR4 PET/CT that may help doctors better see and understand lymphomas (a type of blood cancer). It is for people who are newly diagnosed or suspected of having lymphoma and have already had a standard PET/CT.
This study tests a new type of PET scan called 68Ga-Pentixafor to see how well it finds and stages blood cancers (like non-Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma). It will compare this new scan to the standard FDG-PET scan. If you join, you may get more accurate information about your cancer.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan that uses a radioactive tracer (68Ga-BCMA) to find active multiple myeloma cells in your body. It may help doctors better detect and monitor the disease.
This study uses a special PET scan to look for multiple myeloma in your body. It may help doctors see where the disease is and how active it is.
