New scan may tell how aggressive your kidney tumor is

NCT ID NCT07346404

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

Summary

This study tests whether a special PET scan using 82-Rb can tell how aggressive a kidney tumor is. Doctors will compare the scan results to the actual tumor grade after surgery. If it works, patients might avoid unnecessary biopsies or surgeries. The study involves 50 adults with suspected or confirmed kidney cancer.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
82-Rb injection
What this could lead to
If successful, this scan could help doctors determine kidney cancer aggressiveness without needing a biopsy or surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The scan may not reliably distinguish between low- and high-grade tumors.
