Study of drug binding in the lungs using PET scan
Treatments studied
This study uses a special PET scan to see how a drug (XBD173) binds to a protein in the lungs. It may help researchers understand inflammation in the lungs and find new ways to treat lung diseases.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 25 and 75 years old
- Able to lie on your back for up to 90 minutes
- No significant kidney or liver disease
- No uncontrolled high blood pressure or active infections
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding, and willing to use effective birth control if needed
- No history of lung disease or conditions that could affect your lungs

This research study uses a special type of MRI scan with xenon gas to take detailed pictures of your lungs and how they work. The goal is to develop better ways to evaluate lung function and potentially help diagnose or monitor lung diseases.
This study uses a special PET scan tracer (XBD173) to look at inflammation in the lungs of people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). It aims to understand the role of a protein called TSPO in PAH and may help guide future treatments.
This trial tests an experimental drug called XBD173 to see if it can reduce blood vessel inflammation and lower pressure in the lungs of people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). If you have a PAH diagnosis, are on two or more PAH medications, and already have a heart and lung monitor implanted, this study may be an option for you.
This early research study uses special PET scans to look at lung inflammation linked to a target called CCR2. It may help researchers understand inflammation biology and future treatments, using scan results instead of an investigational drug.
This trial tests the safety of a new inhaled medicine. You must be a healthy nonsmoker, have normal lung function, and agree to avoid certain medications and foods.
This trial uses a special breathing MRI (you breathe a gas mixture) to measure how well your lungs work. It studies healthy kids and people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis or asthma, and it may help researchers better understand lung function and flare-ups.
