New scan could spot hidden prostate cancer
NCT ID NCT07600554
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage study tests a new radioactive imaging agent called 68Ga-OncoACP3 in 20 men with prostate cancer. The goal is to see if it is safe and can help detect cancer that has spread or come back. Participants receive one injection and then undergo PET scans to measure radiation doses and check for side effects.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- 68Ga-OncoACP3 (a radioactive imaging agent)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a new way to detect prostate cancer spread or recurrence using PET scans, potentially guiding treatment decisions.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early phase 1 study with only 20 participants, focused on safety and dosing, not on effectiveness. The imaging agent may not work as hoped or could have unexpected side effects.
