Scientists test 'Smart' tracer to light up Hard-to-See cancers
NCT ID NCT01266096
Summary
This study is testing a new, experimental radioactive tracer designed to stick to cancer cells for PET scans. The goal is to see if it can create clearer pictures of melanoma and malignant brain tumors than current scans. It involves a single, very small dose and is for research only—it will not treat the cancer. The information will help design future studies.
