ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is exploring a new type of imaging called 68Ga-Pentixafor PET to see if it can help doctors better understand and treat certain blood cancers, specifically non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and myeloma. The study involves 120 patients who will undergo two different imaging tests: the standard 18F-FDG PET/CT scan and the new 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT scan. Researchers want to find out if the new imaging method provides additional valuable information for staging the cancer, checking how well treatment is working, and re-evaluating the cancer later on.
To be eligible for this trial, participants should be between 18 and 75 years old, have a confirmed diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or myeloma, and be able to follow the study guidelines. Importantly, they should not have severe liver or kidney issues, nor can they be pregnant or breastfeeding. If someone joins the study, they can expect to have both imaging tests done and contribute to important research that could improve cancer care in the future.
