387 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study is an exploratory proof of mechanism (POM) study using PET/functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in a 2-period, 2-sequence, crossover design.

This phase I trial studies how well zirconium (Zr)-89 crefmirlimab berdoxam and immuno-positron emission tomography (PET) identifies areas of immune cell activity in patients with brain tumors that can be removed by surgery (resectable). One important predictor of the immune response is the presence and change in CD8 positive (+) tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) cells. Identifying the presence and changes in CD8+ cells can be challenging, particularly for participants with central nervous system (CNS) tumors, and usually requires invasive procedures such as repeat tissue biopsies, which may not accurately represent the immune status of the entire tumor. Zr-89 crefmirlimab berdoxam is known as a radioimmunoconjugate which consists of a radiolabeled anti-CD8+ minibody whose uptake can be imaged with PET. Upon administration, Zr 89 crefmirlimab berdoxam specifically targets and binds to the CD8+ cells. This enables PET imaging and may detect CD8+ T-cell distribution and activity and may help determine the patient's response to cancer immunotherapeutic agents more accurately. Giving Zr-89 crefmirlimab berdoxam along with undergoing immuno-PET imaging may work better at identifying immune cell activity in patients with resectable brain tumors.
This clinical trial studies how well fluorine F 18 fluorthanatrace (\[18F\]FTT) positron emission tomography (PET) works in imaging patients with breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) who are receiving standard of care (SOC) poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors with or without immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) to be able to detect clinical response to PARP inhibitor ± ICI treatment. \[18F\]FTT is a radiotracer that targets and binds to PARP1 which can potentially be used for the imaging of PARP1 expression using PET. Once administered, \[18F\]FTT targets and binds to PARP1. Upon PET, PARP1-expressing tumor cells can be visualized. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case, \[18F\]FTT. Because some cancers take up \[18F\]FTT it can be seen with PET. PARP inhibitors work as a targeted therapy by blocking an enzyme involved in repairing cell damage. It may cause tumor cells to die. ICI may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Combining \[18F\]FTT with a PET scan may help detect tumor cells better in patients with metastatic breast cancer who are receiving standard of care PARP inhibitors with our without ICI treatment.

To measure perturbations in the immune-modulatory and metabolic states following thoracic RT (Radiation Therapy) exposure in patients at high risk of cardiac dysfunction. Eligible patients will be adults (≥18 years old) with Stage II-III or oligo-metastatic stage IV malignancy (any histology) at high risk for RT-associated cardiac toxicity (defined as receiving ≥30 Gy (Gray) RT where the heart is in the treatment field54). The study will enroll a total of 10 subjects, recruited from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. The primary endpoint will be successful completion of 18F-NaF PET imaging at the baseline and 6-month post-RT time points. Blood will be collected at baseline, end of RT, and 6-months post-RT.

This phase II trial tests the safety of positron emission tomography (PET) guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and how well it works to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), melanoma, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has up to 5 sites of progression (oligoprogression) compared to standard SBRT. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. A PET scan is an imaging test that looks at your tissues and organs using a small amount of a radioactive substance. It also checks for cancer and may help find cancer remaining in areas already treated. Using a PET scan for SBRT planning may help increase the dose of radiation given to the most resistant part of the cancer in patients with oligoprogressive NSCLC, melanoma, and RCC.

The overarching goal of this study is to develop PET/MR techniques for the diagnosis of neuropsychiatric post-acute sequelae (PASC) of SARS-CoV-2. The central hypothesis is that immunological and cerebrovascular dysfunction after acute SARS-CoV-2 infections mediate neuropsychiatric PASC (NP-PASC).
This study evaluates the use of a new imaging agent called fluorodopa F 18 (18F-DOPA) with positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) for assessing treatment response in patients undergoing standard of care radiation therapy and/or surgery for high-grade soft tissue sarcomas that are new or that have come back (recurrent). Though there have been improvements in treatment options for soft tissue sarcomas, there is currently a need for a non-invasive way to determine a patient's potential benefit from receiving one of these treatments. 18F-DOPA with PET/MRI allows a patient's tumor to be visualized and their response to a given treatment assessed.
The purpose of this study is to see if 18F-Fluciclovine (Axumin®) is useful and safe in the management of children with Low Grade Gliomas (LGG). Imaging with 18F-Fluciclovine PET-MRI will be performed prior to initiation of therapy for LGG, and then 3 months, and 1 year after starting therapy. Changes in 18F-Fluciclovine uptake will be compared to changes in MRI measurements at 3 months and 1 year as compared to baseline.

This study evaluates positron emission tomography for the diagnosis of immune checkpoint inhibitor-related myocarditis. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown promising results in various malignancies however, several immune related adverse events have been described of which myocarditis carries the highest reported mortality. Diagnostic procedures, such as positron emission tomography, help find and diagnose myocarditis and provide functional or disease activity information as opposed to the largely structural/anatomic information.

A total of 20 patients will be recruited for this study. This trial will not designate the participant's treatment plan; they will be eligible based on their treatment plan designated from their oncologist.

We will enroll a total of 12 participants, nine of whom will be patients with chronic, compensated asymptomatic moderate-severe PMR evaluated at the UAB Cardiovascular Disease and Structural Valve Clinic and three normal control subjects.
