Fluorine F 18 Fluorthanatrace PET/CT for Imaging of Patients with Primary or Recurrent Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

Trial Status: active

This phase I trial studies how well fluorine F 18 fluorthanatrace positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) works in imaging patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that is primary or has come back (recurrent). Fluorine F 18 fluorthanatrace is a radioactive tracer, a type of imaging agent that is labeled with a radioactive tag and injected into the body to help with imaging scans. PET/CT uses a scanner to make detailed, computerized pictures of areas inside the body. PET/CT with Fluorine F 18 fluorthanatrace may help detect the activity of a certain enzyme in the body that may be related to cancer growth.
