New scan could spot hidden cancers
NCT ID NCT06386653
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed Phase 1 study tested a new radioactive imaging agent called [123I]I-DARPIN-Ec1 in 10 people with lung or ovarian cancer. The goal was to see how the agent spreads in the body and whether it can help spot tumors on SPECT scans. Researchers compared the new scan results with standard imaging like CT or MRI to check if it could improve cancer detection.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- [123I]I-DARPIN-Ec1 injection
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a more precise imaging method to detect and monitor lung and ovarian cancers.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early Phase 1 study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The imaging agent's safety and effectiveness are still being evaluated.
