The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic performance of 68Ga PSMA-dual contrast PET/MRI for detection and staging of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC), and to compare it with standard-of-care (SOC) imaging. Additionally, this study aims to identify the biologic correlates of biomarkers derived from 68Ga PSMA-dual contrast PET/MRI with histopathology features and PSMA immunostaining of HCC.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of [18F]FAPI-74 in detecting FAP expressing cells in patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, gastric, pancreatic and colorectal cancer.  

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of [177Lu]Lu-FAP-2286 as monotherapy in participants with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and breast cancer (BC) and in combination with chemotherapy in participants with untreated PDAC or relapsed NSCLC.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of [68Ga]FAPI-46 to detect FAP expressing cells in patients with resectable or borderline resectable PDAC. The [68Ga]FAPI-46 PET scans will be acquired after initial staging using institutional standard methods. If the participant is prescribed neoadjuvant therapy, a second [68Ga]FAPI-46 PET scan will be performed within 21 days prior to planned surgical resection. 

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate diagnostic performance of 68Ga-PSMA-dual contrast (gadavist and gadoxetate) PET/MRI OR PET/CT for HCC using surgical histopathology (either resection, transplant or biopsy specimens) or LI-RADS® categorization as gold standard.

Aims, purpose, or objectives:

1. Evaluation of quantitative biomarkers derived from simultaneous time-of-flight FDG PET-MRI/MRCP for assessment of response to neoadjuvant therapy in borderline resectable PDAC.
2. Evaluate the comparative performance of blood and FDG PET-MRI/MRCP based biomarkers for assessment of response to neoadjuvant therapy in borderline resectable PDAC.

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship of ctDNA status and FDG PET/MRI findings with other clinicopathologic variables and standard staging examinations. We will develop a multivariable model combining ctDNA and FDG PET/MRI biomarkers to predict treatment response and survival. In addition, we will define the quantitative thresholds for early chemotherapy switch in patients who do not respond to first-line chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm, developed for detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA), on contrast enhanced abdomen CT scans requested by referring providers as a part of clinically indicated examinations.    

Evaluation of TOF FDG PET-MRE for identification of predominantly fibrotic small bowel strictures in Crohn’s disease.

The purpose of this study is to examine the utility of 68GaFAPI-46 PET/CT imaging in adult patients with biopsy-proven Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDA) who have no prior treatment for their PDA and who are expected to undergo surgical resection following NAT.
