New imaging agent could spot hidden infections
NCT ID NCT07110519
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 21, 2026 · Updated 33 times
Summary
This early-phase study tests a new radioactive tracer called [18F]-fluoromannitol in 10 healthy adults. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it spreads through the body during a PET scan. If all goes well, this tracer might one day help doctors find infections in people with conditions like sickle cell disease or cancer.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
[18F]-fluoromannitol (a radioactive tracer for PET scans)
What this could lead to
If successful, this tracer could help doctors spot infections in people with sickle cell disease, cancer, or joint implants using PET scans.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small study in just 10 healthy people. It only checks safety and distribution, not whether the tracer actually works for detecting infections.
As listed by the trial registrant
The condition terms exactly as the trial's registrant entered them.
