New scan may reveal radiation success in brain tumors
NCT ID NCT04689048
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a special imaging agent called 18F-fluciclovine to see if it can detect how well radiation therapy is working on large brain tumors that have spread from other cancers. About 20 adults with at least one untreated brain tumor larger than 2 cm will get PET/CT scans before, during, and after radiation. The goal is to see if this scan can help doctors tell sooner whether the treatment is effective.
