Recruiting EARLY_PHASE1 Glioma

New treatment option for Glioma

Official title 18F-Fluciclovine PET-MRI in High-grade Glioma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05553041

What this study is testing

What is 18F-Fluciclovine PET-MRI?

18F-Fluciclovine PET-MRI is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for glioma.

Also referred to as Axumin.

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
The purpose of this study is to see if 18F-fluciclovine (Axumin®) PET imaging is useful and safe in the management of children with High Grade Gliomas. Investigators seek to determine if this imaging will help doctors tell the difference between tumor growth (progression) and other tumor changes that can occur after treatment.
