IDH mutation PET/MRI scan for brain tumors
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study uses a special type of PET/MRI scan to look for a common genetic change (IDH mutation) in brain tumors (gliomas). The goal is to improve how doctors diagnose and treat these tumors.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have a glioma (brain tumor) that is suspected, newly diagnosed, or previously treated.
- You are willing to give written permission to take part in the study.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You can safely have an MRI scan (no metal implants, no severe claustrophobia).
- You have not had more than 50 mSv of radiation from medical tests in the past year.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses MRI scans to find higher-risk areas in certain brain and other solid tumors and help plan radiation treatment. It also looks for changes in tumor “metabolites” (chemicals in the tumor) that may relate to how the tumor behaves.
This trial uses a special MRI scan to study the genetics of gliomas (a type of brain tumor). It may help doctors better understand your tumor and choose the right treatment. You can join if you have a suspected or confirmed low- or high-grade glioma that still has a measurable tumor after surgery.
This study looks at leftover tumor cells in people with a type of brain tumor called IDH-mutant glioma. Doctors want to learn how many tumor cells remain after treatment by testing tissue from a biopsy or surgery. This may help improve future care.
This study uses special scans (PET and MRI) to look at brain tumors in more detail. It aims to understand tumor metabolism and oxygen levels, which may help guide treatment.
This trial uses a special PET scan to see how IDH-mutant gliomas respond to treatment. It may help your doctor better track your tumor's activity.
This trial tests whether a special PET scan can tell the difference between actual tumor growth and treatment-related changes in people with aggressive brain cancer (high-grade glioma). If you have had radiation and an MRI shows a growing lesion, this study may help clarify the cause.
