What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This project involves conducting integrated PET/MR or PET/CT imaging using a CAIX-targeted PET tracer (e.g., \[68Ga\]Ga-DOTA-CAIX peptide) in clinically diagnosed malignant tumor patients, aiming to achieve the following objectives: Patients with malignant tumors: To visually assess the hypoxic state of malignant tumors, with pathological immunohistochemical detection of CAIX expression levels as the gold standard, evaluate the detection efficacy and quantitative accuracy of CAIX PET imaging for tumor hypoxic regions; clarify the location, extent, and heterogeneous distribution characteristics of hypoxic subregions within tumors; conduct a head-to-head comparison with \[18F\]FDG PET imaging to assess the complementary value and differences of the two imaging techniques in tumor boundary delineation, metastatic lesion detection, and tumor burden evaluation; based on the hypoxic biological information provided by CAIX PET imaging, assist clinicians in designing hypoxia-conformal margin expansion for radiotherapy target volumes, aiding in the determination of personalized radiotherapy and combined treatment plans.
