Testing FAPI PET/CT for eye socket tumors
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Cancer, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether a new type of PET/CT scan (FAPI) can provide better images of tumors in the eye socket than the standard FDG scan. If you have a suspected or newly diagnosed orbital tumor, joining could help doctors see your tumor more clearly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a suspected or new tumor in the eye socket (orbit), based on an MRI, CT, or biopsy.
- You have been scheduled for both a standard FDG PET/CT scan and the experimental FAPI PET/CT scan.
- You are not pregnant and not breastfeeding.
- You (or your parent or legal representative) are able to sign a consent form.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies a special PET/CT scan called FAPI PET/CT to see how well it can detect or track cancerous tumors. It may help doctors better understand your cancer without extra procedures.
This study tests a new type of PET scan using a special tracer called Al18F-NOTA-FAPI-04 to see if it can better detect cancer, heart disease, or immune system conditions. The goal is to find out how well this imaging method works for diagnosis or monitoring of these diseases.
This study compares two types of PET/CT scans—one that uses FDG and one that uses FAPI—to help doctors see and evaluate cancer in different situations. It may help improve how well scans detect tumors and guide care, though it requires getting both scans scheduled.
This study uses a special type of PET scan called FAPI PET to see if it can help detect or monitor cancer and other diseases. It is for people who already need a PET or CT/MRI scan as part of their standard care.
This trial uses a special PET scan that targets a substance called FAP to better find oral squamous cell cancer and check for recurrence. It may help doctors see where cancer activity is and guide treatment planning, especially around surgery and (for some people) neoadjuvant therapy before surgery.
This study tests a new type of PET scan that uses a special tracer called FAPI to find where cancer has spread in your body. It may help doctors see hidden tumors more clearly without needing extra treatments first.
