Using a new molecular probe for early diagnosis of tumors
Official title: Clinical Application of a Novel 18F Labeled Fibroblast Activation Protein (FAP) Targeted Molecular Probe in Early Tumor Diagnosis
Run by Nanjing First Hospital, Nanjing Medical University · NCT06937112 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a new imaging tool to see if it can help doctors find different types of tumors earlier in patients aged 18 to 75 who already have confirmed tumor lesions.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 75 with confirmed tumor lesions from lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, neuroendocrine tumors, or thyroid cancer.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with a history of allergies to similar drugs or those currently involved in other clinical research may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of a novel FAP targeted molecular probe, 18F-FAPI-YQ104, labeled with radioactive isotopes for diagnosing tumors. Participants will undergo PET-CT examinations to assess the probe's ability to identify lung cancers, pancreatic cancer, neuroendocrine tumors, and thyroid cancer. The study aims to gather data on the probe's performance in clinical applications, focusing on patients with confirmed tumor lesions. The trial includes a diverse patient population aged 18 to 75 years.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved early diagnosis of various types of tumors, enhancing treatment outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is innovative, similar studies using targeted molecular probes have shown promise in tumor diagnosis.
