What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study tests a high-resolution PET-CT scanner that images removed tumors right in the operating room. About 50 adults with solid cancers will get a standard PET tracer before surgery, then the removed tissue is scanned to see if all cancer was taken out. The goal is to see if this method helps surgeons make better decisions during the operation, with no extra visits or known risks.

Participants

About 50 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Sep 2025

Expected to finish

Jul 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Biopsy confirmed diagnosis of any solid malignancy * Diagnosis of any T stage, any subsite that are scheduled to undergo definitive en bloc surgical resection. Patients with recurrent disease or a new primary will be allowed. * Planned standard of care oncologic surgery with curative intent * Male or female patients age ≥ 18 years * Have life expectancy of more than 12 weeks * Karnofsky performance status of at least 70% or ECOG/Zubrod level 1 * Have acceptable glucose status (\<200 mg/dL) at Day of Surgery prior to 18F-FDG injection Exclusion Criteria: * General or local contraindications for resective surgery * Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding * Blood glucose level over 200 mg/dL prior to 18F-FDG infusion * Any participation in other clinical trials or research study that involved a radiation exposure of more than 1 mSv in the past year. If the participant had radiation exposure greater than 1 mSv as SOC, they would not be excluded unless the Principal Investigator determines that patient could be at risk.
