New PET scan method for advanced melanoma
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan that may find cancer more clearly and quickly than current scans. It's for people with advanced melanoma that has spread and cannot be removed by surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older.
- You have advanced melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body or is locally advanced.
- Your cancer shows up on a standard FDG PET or CT scan.
- Doctors have said your cancer cannot be removed with surgery.
- You are healthy enough to receive immunotherapy (ICT).

This study tests a new type of PET scan (a detailed imaging test) called [68Ga]Ga-FAPI that may help doctors see cancer better and faster than standard scans. You'll receive this experimental scan to see if it improves cancer detection before surgery.
This trial tests two new radioactive imaging scans (called PET scans) designed to better detect certain advanced cancers like pancreatic, lung, breast, colon, or soft-tissue tumors. The goal is to see if these scans help doctors find and track cancer more accurately than standard imaging.
This trial tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (called ⁶⁸Ga-FXX489) to help find and diagnose cancers. It is for people who are strongly suspected to have cancer and want to see if this new imaging method can help their doctors learn more about their disease.
This trial tests a new type of PET/CT scan called [68Ga]Ga-FAPI-04 to see if it can better detect high-grade neuroendocrine tumors. It is for patients whose standard scans show low uptake or who have aggressive tumor features.
This study tests a new PET imaging method that tracks how fat is used in the body, which may help find melanoma earlier. Healthy volunteers are needed to set a baseline for this new technique.
This trial uses a special PET scan with a new tracer called 68Ga-DOTA-BLP to spot cancer and its spread in the body. It aims to see if this scan can find tumors in lymph nodes or other areas without needing more painful biopsies.
