  • "To explore these objectives, eligible subjects will undergo pre- and on - CkIT treatment \[18F\]F AraG PET/CT scans, and will be followed up for 12 months for assessment of radiographic and clinical outcomes."
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 uses \[18F\]F AraG PET imaging to evaluate the immunological response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy (CkIT) in patients with advanced NSCLC tumors. The study's main objectives are to quantify the change in \[18F\]F AraG PET signal before and while on CkIT therapy and to correlate this change in \[18F\]F AraG PET signal with radiographic response. To explore these objectives, eligible subjects will undergo pre- and on - CkIT treatment \[18F\]F AraG PET/CT scans, and will be followed up for 12 months for assessment of radiographic and clinical outcomes. 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.
