NCT ID NCT04395469

First seen Mar 12, 2026 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study aims to see if a special PET-MRI scan using a tracer called FAZA can measure low oxygen (hypoxia) in pancreatic tumors. About 20 people with advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery will get the scan before and after their standard radiation treatment. The goal is to learn how tumors respond to treatment, not to test a new therapy.
