Summary

This early-phase study tests a new radioactive imaging agent called MeFAMP to see if it can safely and accurately detect brain tumors using PET scans. The study includes healthy volunteers and people with recurrent brain tumors or tumors that spread from other cancers. The goal is to improve diagnosis and tell the difference between active tumors and changes caused by prior radiation therapy.
