Imaging Study of 18F-FAC PET Scans to Assess Standard Treatment in People With Pancreatic Cancer

Early Phase 1

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Pancreatic Cancer; Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

• Registration Number: NCT05141643
• Lead Sponsor: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out whether a pre-treatment PET scan using the experimental imaging tracer 18F-FAC can show how much of the standard chemotherapy for PDAC may be taken up by the cancer.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Tumor drug uptake within PDAC tumors prior at pre-treatment baseline	Baseline	The primary objective of this study is to obtain preliminary data of tumor drug uptake profile, concentration and distribution within PDAC tumors prior at pre-treatment baseline

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
changes in [18F]-FAC drug uptake during or following SOC chemo- and/or radiation therapy.	2 years	To investigate changes in \[18F\]-FAC drug uptake and distribution during or following SOC chemo- and/or radiation therapy.
