New imaging agent could spot hidden cancers
NCT ID NCT07420036
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new radioactive imaging agent called 68Ga-SFB6-ZN01, which is designed to attach to a protein found on many cancer cells. 98 adults with confirmed or suspected cancer will receive a single injection of the agent and then have a PET/CT scan. The goal is to see if the scan can accurately detect and stage tumors, and to check for any side effects. No treatment is given; this is purely a diagnostic study.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- 68Ga-SFB6-ZN01 (a radioactive imaging agent injected before a PET/CT scan)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a more accurate way to detect and stage cancers using PET/CT scans, helping doctors make better treatment decisions.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early (Phase 1) study with only 98 participants, so the imaging agent may not work as hoped or may cause unexpected side effects. It is designed to test safety and accuracy, not to treat cancer.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Voluntary written informed consent. * Age ≥ 18 years, male or female. * Clinically suspected or pathologically confirmed malignant solid tumor, or suspicion of recurrence after treatment. * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) 0-1. * Life expectancy ≥ 6 months. * Female subjects of childbearing potential and male subjects with partners of childbearing potential must agree to use highly effective contraception from consent until 6 months after study agent administration. Exclusion Criteria: * Administration of any radionuclide within a period less than 10 physical half-lives before study agent injection. * Concurrent participation in another interventional clinical trial involving an investigational drug or device. * Known hypersensitivity to 68Ga-SFB6-ZN01 or any of its excipients. * Inability to lie flat or remain still during PET/CT acquisition, or any contraindication to PET/CT. * Pregnancy or breastfeeding. * Any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for participation.
