New treatment option for Radiotracer
Official title Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging of Cholesterol Trafficking: Clinical Evaluation of [18F]FNP-59 in Normal Human Subjects (Group 1)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04532489
What this study is testing
What is FNP-59?
FNP-59 is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for radiotracer.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This exploratory, first-in-man, phase 0 study will evaluate the feasibility of using a sub-therapeutic dose of a fluorine-18 analogue of NP-59 ([18F]FNP-59) to image the adrenal gland in healthy normal subjects. The researchers believe that [18F]FNP-59 would greatly improve the imaging characteristics, by providing a PET imaging cholesterol analogue with significantly improved radiation dosimetry.
