Show the study's own words
- "Repeatability, as an estimate of the magnitude of change that distinguishes normal physiologic and measurement variability from true biologic change, is important to interpreting changes encountered on PET scans in the response-to-treatment setting."
- Compensation
- Not stated
- Study-related exams and procedures are typically provided at no cost. This is how many trials work in general — confirm the details for this study with the study team.
- Participants are monitored closely by the research team throughout the study.
- Some participants may receive access to an investigational treatment, which is still being studied.
- Your participation helps researchers learn whether this approach could help future patients.
About this study
This pilot study aims to evaluate the test-retest variability of \[18F\]F-AraG-PET imaging in patients with advanced NSCLC tumors. The main objectives of the study are to quantify the uptake of \[18F\]F-AraG in tumors and lymphoid tissue in two consecutive scans spaced not longer than 7 days apart from each other to estimate the magnitude of physiologic and measurement variability. To explore these objectives, eligible subjects will undergo two \[18F\]F-AraG PET/CT scans within 7 days of each other prior to receiving treatment. This study is a single-site, open-label, non-randomized, single-arm pilot trial. Patients and care providers will not be blinded to any part of the study.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
