New imaging agent could sharpen cancer detection

NCT ID NCT06977945

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new imaging agent called FL-091, which targets a protein (NTSR1) found on some cancer cells. Researchers will use it with PET or SPECT scans to see if it can better detect and stage cancers like head and neck, colorectal, and pancreatic cancer. About 100 adults with suspected or confirmed NTSR1-positive tumors will take part. The goal is to see how well the agent highlights tumors and where it goes in the body, laying groundwork for future targeted treatments.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

FL-091 (a radionuclide imaging agent)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a more accurate way to detect and stage certain cancers, potentially guiding better treatment decisions.

What could go wrong

This is an early diagnostic study with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The imaging agent's effectiveness and safety are still being evaluated.
