PET scan test for MSLN in cancer patients
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses a special PET scan to look for a protein called MSLN in certain cancers like pancreatic, ovarian, and lung cancer. It aims to see if this imaging method can help doctors understand your tumor better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have a known or suspected cancer like pancreatic, ovarian, or lung cancer.
- You are able to lie still for a PET scan (no severe claustrophobia or fear of radiation).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- If you are a woman who could become pregnant, you must use birth control before and during the study.

This study tests a new type of imaging scan (PET/CT or PET/MR) that uses a radioactive tracer to help doctors better detect and diagnose various cancers. The scan targets a specific protein found in tumors, which may help identify cancer more accurately than standard imaging.
This trial uses a special PET scan tracer to see how it spreads in the body for people newly diagnosed with pancreatic or head and neck cancer who haven't had treatment yet. It aims to help doctors better understand and potentially treat these cancers.
This trial uses a special PET/CT scan that targets a protein on some cancer cells to help detect and evaluate malignant tumors. It may help doctors better map tumors before any cancer treatment starts.
This study tests a new imaging agent called FL-091 to see if it helps doctors find and stage cancers like head and neck, colorectal, or pancreatic cancer. You’ll get a PET scan that may give clearer pictures of tumors.
This trial tests a new imaging agent (68Ga-FL-031) to see if it can help find and stage tumors in people with small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, or other cancers. The goal is to improve diagnosis and treatment planning.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan that uses a special tracer to find lung tumors. The goal is to see if this scan can better detect cancer cells, which may help doctors plan the best treatment for you.
