New imaging agent targets LRRC15 to sharpen cancer diagnosis
NCT ID NCT07651020
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a special SPECT imaging agent that seeks out a protein called LRRC15, found on many aggressive cancers like pancreatic, breast, lung, and brain tumors. The goal is to see if this scan can help doctors diagnose and stage these cancers more accurately. Healthy volunteers and people with suspected or confirmed LRRC15-positive cancers will receive the imaging agent and undergo a SPECT/CT scan.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- LRRC15-targeted SPECT radiotracer
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this imaging method could improve cancer diagnosis and staging, helping doctors choose better treatments.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small study with only one participant, so results may not apply broadly. The imaging agent's safety and accuracy are still being tested.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: Each subject must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for study enrollment: 1. The subject or their legally authorized representative (LAR) is capable of providing a signed and dated informed consent form (ICF); 2. Willing and able to comply with all study procedures and cooperate throughout the entire duration of the study; 3. Adult patients or healthy volunteers, aged 18 years or older, male or female; 4. Patients with clinically suspected or confirmed malignancies (supported by evidence such as relevant serum tumor markers, imaging modalities including ultrasound, CT, and MRI, or histopathological examinations) who are in good general condition; 5. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have used effective contraception for at least one month prior to screening and agree to continue contraceptive use throughout the study period and for a specified duration following study completion; 6. Must meet any other protocol-specified inclusion criteria. Exclusion Criteria: Any subject meeting any of the following baseline criteria will be excluded from the study: 1. Inability to tolerate or complete SPECT/CT examinations (including, but not limited to, the inability to lie supine, claustrophobia, radiophobia, etc.); 2. Presence of other comorbidities, such as acute systemic illnesses and electrolyte imbalances; 3. Known allergy or hypersensitivity to the LRRC15 radiotracer or its synthetic excipients; fasting blood glucose level exceeding 11.0 mmol/L prior to \[¹⁸F\]FDG injection; 4. Patients deemed by the investigator to have poor expected compliance; 5. Pregnant or lactating (nursing) women; 6. Presence of any other conditions or factors that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for participation in this trial.
