An Investigational Scan (124I-hJAA-F11 PET/CT) for Diagnosing Lung Cancer

Trial Status: approved

This phase I trial studies the side effects of 124I-hJAA-F11, and evaluates how well it works in diagnosing lung cancer. 124I-hJAA-F11 uses a known radioactive substance used in imaging called iodine 124 (124I). hJAA-F11 is an experimental (investigational) antibody that is currently being evaluated as a potential treatment for lung cancer. In animal studies, hJAA-F11 has shown anti-tumor activity against tumors bearing the Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen that is found in over 90% of lung cancers. 124I-hJAA-F11 has the 124I radioactive dye attached to this investigational antibody, which may be a potential tool for imaging-based diagnosis of lung cancer.
