Peptide PET scan could light up hidden cancer targets

NCT ID NCT07319130

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

Summary

This study tests a new PET/CT imaging method that uses a radioactive peptide to find a protein called Nectin-4 on solid tumors. Researchers will scan 10 people with cancers like breast or bladder cancer that have high Nectin-4 levels. The goal is to see if this scan can show where the protein is in the body, which could help doctors plan better treatments.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

68Ga-labeled Nectin-4 bicyclic peptide

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a non-invasive way to see Nectin-4 levels in tumors, helping doctors choose better treatments and monitor disease.

What could go wrong

This is a very early, small study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply widely. The imaging method may not be accurate enough or could have unexpected side effects.
