Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging of Reactive Oxygen and Nitrogen Species: Human Observation of Retention and Safety of [18F]-Fluoroedaravone
Sponsor: St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Summary
This first-in-human research study will test the safety of a new PET imaging tracer called\[18F\]fluoroedaravone (\[18F\]FEDV) in healthy adults. Participants will receive one injection of the tracer and undergo several PET/CT scans over about 3 hours. Researchers will collect blood and urine samples, check vital signs and heart activity (ECGs), and ask participants about any symptoms to learn how the tracer moves through and leaves the body and to monitor for side effects. Information from this study will help researchers develop this imaging tracer for future studies of oxidative stress, a process linked to inflammation and long-term health problems in cancer survivors and other diseases. Primary Objective(s): • Generate safety data and calculate biodistribution and organ dosimetry in healthy adult volunteers following \[18F\]fluoroedaravone intravenous administration.
