New PET tracer aims to sharpen prostate cancer detection

NCT ID NCT05324332

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study compares a new radioactive tracer, 68Ga-P16-093, with the standard tracer 68Ga-PSMA-11 for PET/CT imaging in 50 men with untreated prostate cancer. The goal is to see which tracer better detects tumors and their spread. Participants will receive both tracers within a week, and the number of tumors detected will be compared.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

68Ga-P16-093 and 68Ga-PSMA-11 (radioactive tracers for PET imaging)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a more accurate imaging method for detecting prostate cancer and its spread.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early pilot study with only 50 participants. The new tracer may not prove better than the existing one, and results may not apply to all patients.
