Targeted Imaging of Melanoma for Alpha-Particle Radiotherapy

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2022-07-16
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The study hypothesis is that new imaging agents [203Pb]VMT01 and [68Ga]VMT02 can be safely used in humans without independent biological effect and can be used to image melanoma tumors expressing the melanocortin sub-type 1 receptor (MC1R) by SPECT/CT and PET/CT imaging modalities respectively.

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No
