New PET tracer for prostate cancer enters human testing

NCT ID NCT07149831

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

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing a new imaging agent called Flotufolastat F-18 in 6 healthy Chinese adults. The tracer is designed to light up prostate cancer cells during PET scans. Researchers are checking how safe it is, where it goes in the body, and how much radiation it gives off. This is a first step before testing it in people with prostate cancer.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Flotufolastat F-18 Injection

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a more accurate PET imaging method for detecting prostate cancer, potentially improving diagnosis and treatment planning.

What could go wrong

This is a very early Phase I trial with only 6 healthy volunteers, not patients. It only tests safety and imaging properties, not whether it actually helps diagnose cancer better than existing methods.
