Summary

This trial aims to test a new imaging scan called \[18F\]FAPI-74 for detecting certain cancers. The study will compare the effectiveness of this new scan with the current approved tracer

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with certain cancers (pancreatic, stomach, liver, bladder, ovarian, bile duct cancer or pheochromocytoma) who are already enrolled in an NIH treatment study. They must be willing to undergo PET scans using a new tracer and an approved tracer.
What is being tested?
[18F]FAPI-74 is a new imaging agent being tested against the standard [18F]FDG for its ability to detect tumors in various cancers. Participants will receive two baseline scans with each tracer and may have repeat scans based on tumor visibility and progression.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of the tracers used during PET scans can include allergic reactions at the injection site, nausea or vomiting. However, most people tolerate these types of diagnostic tests without significant issues.
