Can a radioactive tracer light up hidden tumors? a new trial aims to find out

NCT ID NCT07733674

First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This Phase I trial is testing an experimental imaging drug, 203Pb-RMX-VH-PIB, to see how it spreads through the body and how much radiation reaches different organs. The study includes adults with glioblastoma (a type of brain cancer) or pancreatic cancer. Participants receive a single injection of the radioactive tracer followed by multiple SPECT/CT scans to map its distribution and measure radiation exposure.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a radioactive imaging drug called 203Pb-RMX-VH-PIB
What this could lead to
If successful, this imaging approach could help doctors see tumors more clearly and plan better treatments for brain and pancreatic cancers.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small Phase I trial with only 20 participants, so it is not designed to prove effectiveness. The radioactive tracer may not distribute as expected or could cause unexpected side effects.
