PET scans to check treatment response in the abdomen
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special PET scan can better show how well chemotherapy given directly into the abdomen is working, compared to standard scans. This may help doctors see changes in tumors earlier and guide treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled to start repeated chemotherapy given directly into your abdomen, with or without additional chemotherapy through a vein.
- You are generally able to care for yourself (but not necessarily active), as per your doctor's assessment.
- You do not have severe kidney problems (unless your doctor allows an exception).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, or are willing to pause breastfeeding for the study.
- You can lie still on your back for the PET-CT scan and do not have severe claustrophobia that cannot be managed.

This trial tests if a newer type of PET scan (FAPI PET) can better diagnose pleural mesothelioma than a standard FDG PET scan. If you have a suspicious spot in your lung lining and need a biopsy, this study may help improve how we find and track this cancer.
This trial tests a special PET/CT scan using a new tracer (68Ga-FAPI) to help show tumors in the pancreas, bile ducts, stomach, or certain ovarian cancers. It may help doctors better see where cancer is in preparation for surgery or biopsy.
This study tests how useful a special PET/CT scan (called 68Ga-FAPI) is for people who may have or have been diagnosed with cancer. The scan may help doctors see cancer activity more clearly.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan (Ga68-FAPI-46) to better see if cancer from the colon, rectum, or ovary has spread to the lining of the belly. If you are already scheduled for surgery to remove these cancer spots, this scan may help your doctors plan a more complete operation.
This trial uses a special PET scan to look at diseases like cancer. It aims to see if this new imaging method can help doctors find or monitor disease better. This could be helpful for people with confirmed or suspected cancer or other conditions.
This study uses a special PET scan called 18F-FAPI-04 to take detailed images of different kinds of cancer. It aims to see if this scan can help doctors better find and monitor tumors.
