68Ga PSMA PET Imaging for the Treatment of Advanced Liver Cancer

Optimizing Outcomes of Patients With Advanced HCC Undergoing Immunotherapy Through Novel 68Ga PSMA PET Imaging

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This phase II trial tests whether 68-Gallium prostate specific membrane antigen (68Ga-PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging can improve the diagnosis and management of liver cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (advanced). PSMA is a protein that appears in large amounts on the surface of liver cancer cells. The radioactive chemical compound (68Ga-PSMA) has been designed to circulate through the body and attach itself to the PSMA protein on liver cancer cells. A PET scan is then used to detect the location of the tumor cells. 68Ga-PSMA PET may improve upon the diagnosis and management of liver cancer.
