NCT ID NCT06521775

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study tested whether a special PET/CT scan (PSMA PET) can help doctors see if treatment is working in people with metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma, a rare salivary gland cancer that has spread. Six adults who already had this cancer and were in another study received two PSMA PET scans about 12-20 weeks apart. The goal was to see if changes in the scan images matched changes in blood tests, which could help guide future treatment decisions.
