Fluciclovine F18 PET/CT in Identifying the Origin of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Patients With Metastatic Cervical Nodal Disease

Pilot Study of 18F Fluciclovine PET CT in Identification of the Primary in Patients With an Unknown Primary Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Presenting With Metastatic Cervical Nodal Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Mar 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This early phase I trial studies how well fluciclovine F18 positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) works in identifying the origin of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in patients with cancer that has spread to the cervical lymph nodes. Fluciclovine F18 during a PET/CT scan may work better in helping doctors learn where the cancer started (called the site of origin) and directing treatment planning compared to standard fludeoxyglucose F-18 (FDG) PET-CT scans.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Known allergy to FDG, fluciclovine, or iodine-based contrast agents

Other

Who the study is looking for

  • Adults with biopsy proven metastatic cervical nodal squamous cell carcinoma
  • CT of the neck with contrast that does not confidently identify a primary oropharyngeal site of disease
  • Planned standard of care 18F-FDG PET CT examination
  • Planned standard of care exam under anesthesia with oropharyngeal surgical biopsy
