Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with suspected or diagnosed malignant tumors requiring SSTR PET/CT scans.

Probably not a fit

Patients with non-malignant lesions or those unable to provide informed consent will not benefit from this study.

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

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of 68Ga/18F-TATE/JR11/LM3 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in diagnosing primary and metastatic lesions in patients with SSTR-related diseases. Participants, who are adults with suspected or diagnosed malignant tumors, undergo PET/CT scans to assess the uptake of the imaging agent in their lesions. The study aims to calculate various diagnostic metrics, including sensitivity and specificity, to determine the accuracy of this imaging technique in clinical settings.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve the diagnostic accuracy for patients with SSTR-related diseases, leading to better treatment planning.

How similar studies have gone: While similar imaging techniques have been explored, this specific approach using 68Ga/18F-TATE/JR11/LM3 PET/CT is relatively novel.
