Evaluating 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT for treating advanced liver cancer

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study investigates the effectiveness of 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT imaging in assessing the response of patients with advanced unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma to systemic antitumor therapy. Participants will undergo PET/CT scans before treatment and after three months of therapy, with their imaging results compared to histopathological findings to determine efficacy. The study aims to enhance the evaluation process for treatment responses in this patient population.
