Can a new PET tracer spot tumors more clearly?
NCT ID NCT07776899
First seen Aug 20, 2026 · Last updated Aug 21, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial is testing two new PET imaging tracers, FAPI-RuiJ and FAPI-04, to see how well they detect, stage, and monitor various solid tumors. The study will compare the diagnostic accuracy of these tracers against standard methods in 200 adults with suspected or confirmed tumors. The goal is to find a more precise imaging tool for cancer care.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- FAPI-RuiJ and FAPI-04, two FAP-targeted radiotracers for PET imaging
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a more accurate imaging tool to detect, stage, and monitor solid tumors, potentially improving cancer care.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage diagnostic study, and the new tracer may not prove more accurate than existing methods. There are also risks from radiation exposure.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥ 18 years and ≤ 80 years, regardless of gender. 2. Participants with suspected, confirmed, or suspected recurrent solid tumors. 3. Participants who agree to participate in this clinical trial and provide written informed consent. 4. Participants with good compliance, who commit to adhering to the study procedures and cooperate with the full study process. 5. No plans for pregnancy within 6 months. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with severe medical conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, make them unsuitable for participation in this clinical study, including but not limited to: severe cardiopulmonary insufficiency, severe bone marrow suppression, and severe hepatic or renal insufficiency. 2. Patients with claustrophobia, severe psychiatric symptoms, or impaired consciousness that precludes cooperation with the examination procedures. 3. Patients who have received any anti-tumor therapy during the interval between the two PET imaging sessions. 4. Pregnant or breastfeeding women. 5. Patients with poor compliance.
