NCT ID NCT05555550
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a special PET-MRI scan using a tracer called 18F-Fluciclovine can better monitor low-grade gliomas (a type of brain tumor) in children and young adults. About 30 participants will get the scan before starting treatment, then again at 3 months and 1 year. The goal is to see if this imaging method provides useful information beyond standard MRI, without direct treatment benefit.
