NCT ID NCT04333524

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study reviews PET scans from 496 people with marginal zone lymphoma to see how well the scans help with staging and predicting treatment response. Researchers will compare PET results with CT scans and other tests. The goal is to improve how doctors use PET imaging for this type of lymphoma.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to

If successful, this could help doctors use PET scans more accurately to stage marginal zone lymphoma and predict how patients will respond to treatment.

What could go wrong

This is a retrospective analysis of existing scans, not a new treatment trial. It may not lead to immediate changes in care, and results depend on the quality of previously collected data.
