NCT ID NCT03541720
First seen Jan 06, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study tests a new radioactive tracer called 18F-DA for PET scans to see if it can find neuroblastoma and pheochromocytoma tumors more clearly than the current tracer. About 20 children and adults with known or suspected tumors will receive the tracer and be monitored for side effects. The goal is to see if 18F-DA is safe and could replace the current standard to improve tumor detection.
