New PET scan to find cancer spread
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must have a type of cancer confirmed by a biopsy or surgery.
- You must have suspicious lymph nodes or possible spread of cancer seen on previous scans.
- You cannot have received any cancer treatment before this PET scan.
- You cannot have had more than 50 mSv of radiation in the past year.

This trial uses a special PET/CT scan to find breast cancer cells that have a certain marker (CD73). It may help doctors see the cancer more clearly before you start other treatments.
This study tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (68Ga-MY6349) to better see prostate cancer in the body. It may help doctors find cancer that has come back or spread, so you can get the right treatment sooner.
This trial tests a new radioactive tracer called 68Ga-SFB6-ZN01 for PET/CT scans in people with suspected or confirmed solid tumors. It aims to see if this tracer can help find cancer or detect recurrence after treatment.
This trial tests a new PET imaging agent that targets CD73, a protein found on many cancer cells. It may help doctors see tumors more clearly without chemotherapy or radiation before the scan.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan using a radioactive tracer called [68Ga]DOTA-IR-780-C-4 to see if it can find prostate cancer cells that express a protein called PSMA. If you have advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard treatments, this scan may help your doctor better understand your cancer and possibly guide future care.
