CAIX-targeted PET scan for kidney cancer
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial uses a special PET scan that targets a protein (CAIX) often found in kidney cancer cells. It helps doctors see the cancer more clearly, which may guide better treatment decisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial uses a special imaging scan (68Ga-C1 PET/CT) to see kidney cancer more clearly. It helps doctors find and understand clear cell renal cell carcinoma, a common type of kidney cancer.
This early-stage trial tests a new type of imaging scan (called PET) that uses a special tracer to help doctors see tumors better. The scan targets a protein called CAIX that appears on many cancer cells, which may help with accurate diagnosis and staging.
This trial tests a new PET imaging agent that may help detect and evaluate kidney masses suspected to be kidney cancer, including early or recurring cases. It could help doctors better understand the tumor before deciding on treatment.
This study tests a new kind of PET scan that might better detect kidney cancer. It involves an injection of a special imaging agent and a scan to see if the cancer shows up clearly.
This study tests a new imaging method that uses a special tracer to find solid tumors in the body. It may help doctors see tumors more clearly and guide treatment.
This trial tests a new PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer to find clear cell kidney cancer. If you are scheduled for kidney tumor removal, this scan may help your surgeon see the cancer more clearly before surgery.
