This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of sunitinib malate in combination with lutetium Lu 177 dotatate in treating patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Sunitinib malate is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors and a form of targeted therapy that blocks the action of abnormal proteins called VEGFRs that signal tumor cells to multiply. This helps stop or slow the spread of tumor cells. Radioactive drugs, such as lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. It is also a form of targeted therapy because it works by attaching itself to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as somatostatin receptors, so that radiation can be delivered directly to the tumor cells and kill them. Giving sunitinib malate and lutetium Lu 177 dotatate in combination may be safer and more effective in treating pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors than giving either drug alone.

This phase II trial tests the effect of venetoclax in combination with standard of care (SOC) zanubrutinib in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Zanubrutinib blocks a protein called Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK), which may help keep cancer cells from growing. It is a type of tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Giving venetoclax in combination with SOC zanubrutinib may be safe and tolerable and may reduce the number of cancer cells that remain in the body in patients with CLL or SLL that have not previously received treatment or at least two years have passed since completing initial treatment.

This phase II trial tests the safety of positron emission tomography (PET) guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and how well it works to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), melanoma, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has up to 5 sites of progression (oligoprogression) compared to standard SBRT. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. A PET scan is an imaging test that looks at your tissues and organs using a small amount of a radioactive substance. It also checks for cancer and may help find cancer remaining in areas already treated. Using a PET scan for SBRT planning may help increase the dose of radiation given to the most resistant part of the cancer in patients with oligoprogressive NSCLC, melanoma, and RCC.

This phase II trial tests the effectiveness of odronextamab given before chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy (bridging therapy) in patients with large B-cell lymphomas that have come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that have not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Odronextamab is a bispecific antibody that can bind to two different antigens at the same time. Odronextamab binds to CD3, a T-cell surface antigen, and CD20 (a tumor-associated antigen that is expressed on B-cells during most stages of B-cell development and is often overexpressed in B-cell cancers) and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Bridging therapy has been used to maintain disease control and to increase the chance of successful receipt of CAR-T cell therapy. However, bridging therapy is typically given after leukapheresis, which does not help prevent disease progression between the decision for CAR-T cell therapy and leukapheresis. Giving odronextamab as bridging therapy before leukapheresis may delay disease progression to allow leukapheresis and increase the likelihood of successful CAR-T cell therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphomas.

This clinical trial compares the effect of using risk-based stratification to guide surgical management to the usual approach in treating cutaneous melanoma, atypical Spitz/Spitzoid tumors or other atypical melanocytic tumors that have not spread to other parts of the body (localized). Melanoma is a cancer that in children is sometimes difficult to tell apart from benign (not harmful) or atypical (uncertain if harmful) skin lesions. Failure to diagnose melanoma can result in inadequate surgical removal and increase the risk of recurrence and metastatic disease (spread from where it first started to other places in the body). In addition, diagnosing a tumor a benign (not cancer) tumor as cancer may lead to unnecessary surgery and treatment. This trial reviews tumor pathology and genetic markers and classifies the tumor as not atypical, atypical but low risk for spread and/or recurrence (coming back after a period of improvement), and atypical and high risk for spread and/or recurrence. The classifications are then used to provide surgical recommendations. Tumors that are not atypical do not receive any surgical treatment. Low-risk recommendations include removing a small layer of normal skin around the tumor. High-risk recommendations include the usual adult melanoma approach of removing a larger layer of normal skin around the tumor with or without a biopsy of the sentinel lymph node (the first lymph node to which tumor cells are likely to spread from a primary tumor). Risk-based guided surgical management may help avoid unnecessary surgery while improving outcomes in younger patients with localized cutaneous melanoma, atypical Spitz/Spitzoid tumors or other atypical melanocytic tumors.

This phase II trial tests how well epcoritamab in combination with rituximab, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (R-GemOx) works as treatment given after the cancer has not responded to other treatments (salvage therapy) before autologous stem cell transplant in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Epcoritamab is a so-called bispecific antibody, a molecule that can bind simultaneously to two different receptors (proteins present on the cell surface). Epcoritamab binds to a receptor called CD3 with one part of the antibody and to a receptor called CD20 with another part of the antibody. CD3 is expressed on T cells, which are important cells of the immune system that help the body fight cancers and infections. CD20 is expressed on the surface of DLBCL cells. By simultaneous binding to CD3 and CD20, epcoritamab brings T cells and DLBCL cells close together and activates the T cells to kill the lymphoma cells. Rituximab is a so-called monoclonal antibody, a molecule that binds to a single receptor. Like epcoritamab, rituximab binds to CD20. After binding to CD20, rituximab activates the immune system to kill the lymphoma cell through several different mechanisms. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making DNA and may kill cancer cells. Oxaliplatin is in a class of medications called platinum-containing antineoplastic agents. It damages the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells. Giving epcoritamab-R-GemOx as therapy before an autologous stem cell transplant may help kill cancer cells in the body and help make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow.

This clinical trial studies whether measuring circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) tumor fraction (TF) can be used to help guide the early stopping (discontinuation) of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan (177Lu-PSMA-617) in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Many types of tumors tend to lose cells or release different types of cellular products including their deoxyribonucleic acid, which is referred to as ctDNA, into the bloodstream before changes can be seen on scans. Health care providers can measure the level of ctDNA in blood or other bodily fluids to determine which patients are at higher risk for the disease to grow, spread, or get worse or come back after a period of improvement. ctDNA TF is a type of ctDNA measurement. Research has shown ctDNA TF may be a promising way to predict which patients will respond to 177Lu-PSMA-617 treatment. Measuring ctDNA TF may help doctors identify which patients may benefit from changing treatments sooner, which may be an effective way to guide early 177Lu-PSMA-617 treatment discontinuation in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of azenosertib in combination with trastuzumab deruxtecan in treating patients with HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer and other HER2-positive solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), that have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic), or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Azenosertib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It inhibits a protein called Wee1. Inhibition of the Wee1 protein can make tumor cells more vulnerable to chemotherapy drugs, leading to tumor cell death. Trastuzumab deruxtecan is in a class of medications called antibody-drug conjugates. It is composed of a monoclonal antibody, called trastuzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called deruxtecan. Trastuzumab attaches to HER2 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers deruxtecan to kill them. Giving azenosertib in combination with trastuzumab deruxtecan may be safe, tolerable, and/or more effective in treating patients with locally advanced, metastatic, or unresectable HER2-positive gastric, gastroesophageal junction, or other solid tumors, compared to just trastuzumab deruxtecan alone.

This phase II trial tests the safety, side effects and effectiveness of mosunetuzumab in treating patients with slow growing (indolent) B-cell lymphoma. Mosunetuzumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

This phase II trial tests how well SX-682 and atezolizumab works for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic), and has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). SX-682 blocks proteins that may be able to stimulate the immune system to kill and eliminate tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving SX-682 and atezolizumab may be effective for the treatment of advanced or metastatic, recurrent NSCLC.

The purpose of this study is to compare two approaches for monitoring pancreatic cysts as well as to identify associated biomarkers. The study doctors want to compare more frequent monitoring versus less frequent monitoring as well as identify biomarkers which may improve risk detection of transformation to pancreatic cancer. The study doctors want to learn which monitoring method and which biomarkers lead to better outcomes for patients.

This clinical trial compares stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SBRT) with hot spots to standard of care SBRT for the treatment of patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. SBRT with hot spots intentionally makes sure the tumor gets a higher radiation dose during treatment. This potentially may result in better control of the tumor, but also more side effects. SBRT with or without hot spots may be more effective in treating patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer, compared to standard of care SBRT.

This early phase I trial tests the safety, best dose, and effectiveness of SONALA-001 or 5-ALA HCL in combination with magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS), also called sonodynamic therapy, in treating patients with glioblastoma that is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Sonodynamic therapy is a non-invasive combination therapy that uses low-intensity ultrasound, such as MRgFUS, to activate a drug, such as SONALA-001 or 5-ALA HCL, to kill tumor cells. SONALA-001 or 5-ALA HCL binds to the tumor and may help the sonodynamic therapy target the tumor. MRgFUS is an image-guided, non-invasive technique that uses high energy ultrasound from the Exablate 4000 Type 2.0 device to kill tumors without damaging surrounding healthy tissue. Giving sonodynamic therapy using SONALA-001 or 5-ALA HCL with MRgFUS may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with progressive or recurrent glioblastoma.

This phase Ib/II trial evaluates the safety, optimal dose, and efficacy of the combination of epcoritamab and ibrutinib in treating patients with aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or responded to previous treatment (refractory). Epcoritamab, a bispecific antibody, binds to two different types of receptors (proteins present on the cell surface) at the same time. The two receptors that epcoritamab binds to are called CD3 and CD20. CD3 is found on T cells, which are important cells of the immune system that help fight cancer and infections. CD20 is found on the surface of most types of aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma cells. By binding to both CD3 and CD20, epcoritamab brings the two cells close together so the T cells can fight and kill the lymphoma B cells. Ibrutinib, a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, binds to a protein on B cells, a type of white blood cell from which the lymphoma developed. By doing this it decreases the ability of the lymphoma B cells to survive and grow. Ibrutinib may also improve the health (or fitness) of T cells thus making epcoritamab safer and/or more effective.

This phase Ib/II trial tests the safety and side effects of BMS-986504 in combination with pemetrexed and how well the combination works in treating patients with solid tumors with MTAP deletion and that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). The MTAP gene helps cells recycle important parts needed to make deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which is needed for cell growth and function. MTAP deletion means that the MTAP gene is missing. BMS-986504, a PRMT5 inhibitor, may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by stopping cells from using folic acid to make DNA and may kill tumor cells. Giving BMS-986504 in combination with pemetrexed may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with metastatic solid tumors with MTAP deletion.

This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of autologous anti-prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA)-chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-4-1BB/TCRzeta-CD19t-expressing T-lymphocytes (PSCA-CAR T cells), plus or minus radiation, in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Castration-resistant prostate cancer continues to grow and spread despite the surgical removal of the testes or medical intervention to block androgen production. CAR T-cell therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving PSCA-targeting CAR T-cells, with or without radiation, may kill more tumor cells in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of samuraciclib in patients with localized pancreatic cancer.

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose and effectiveness of AB801 in combination with chemotherapy and immunotherapy in treating patients with cholangiocarcinoma or pancreatic adenocarcinoma that may be removed by surgery (borderline resectable), that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). AB801 is a drug designed to block a protein called AXL. AXL is found on the surface of certain cancer cells and plays an important role in helping tumors grow, spread to other parts of the body, and avoid the immune system. It is thought to contribute to resistance against common cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation and immunotherapy. In many cancers, including cholangiocarcinoma and pancreatic adenocarcinoma, AXL is overactive and associated with worse outcomes. AB801 inhibits AXL which may make cancer cells more sensitive to chemotherapy and allow immune cells to better recognize and attack the tumor. Chemotherapy drugs, such as gemcitabine, cisplatin, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, leucovrin and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and zimberelimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving AB801 in combination with chemotherapy and immunotherapy may better treat patients with borderline resectable, locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma or pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

This phase II trial tests the effect of total marrow and lymphoid irradiation (TMLI) in combination with fludarabine and melphalan as conditioning regimen in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory) and that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) and are undergoing a donor (allogeneic) peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) from a matched related or unrelated donor. HCT is the only curative treatment for high-risk patients, but the side effects related to the current conditioning treatments limit the use to younger and more fit patients. TMLI is a targeted form of total body radiation that uses intensity-modulated radiation therapy to target marrow, lymph node chains, and the spleen. It is designed to reduce radiation-associated side effects and maximize the radiation therapeutic effect. Fludarabine blocks cells from making deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. It is a type of purine antagonist and a type of ribonucleotide reductase inhibitor. Melphalan is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It may kill cancer cells by damaging their DNA and stopping them from dividing. Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and melphalan, and TMLI before an allogeneic transplant helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells to grow. When healthy stem cells from a related or unrelated donor, such as PBSC HCT, that closely match the patient's blood, are infused into a patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make more healthy cells and platelets, an may help destroy any remaining cancer cells. Giving TMLI in combination with fludarabine and melphalan as conditioning treatment for an allogeneic PBSC HCT from a matched related or unrelated donor may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating high-risk older patients with relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome.

This phase II trial tests how well pembrolizumab in addition to chemotherapy (gemcitabine, brentuximab vedotin, and dacarbazine) works in treating frail patients with newly diagnosed Hodgkin lymphoma who aren't candidates for standard anthracycline-based treatment. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. Brentuximab vedotin is in a class of medications called antibody-drug conjugates. It is made of a monoclonal antibody called brentuximab that is linked to a cytotoxic agent called vedotin. Brentuximab attaches to CD30 positive lymphoma cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. Dacarbazine is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells and slow down or stop cancer growth. Pembrolizumab in combination chemotherapy may be a safe and effective alternative treatment option for frail patients with Hodgkin lymphoma who can't receive standard anthracycline-based treatment.

The UNCOVER study is a longitudinal observational cohort focused on patients at high risk for cancer cachexia. At Kaiser Permanente Northern California, up to 800 individuals with advanced or unresectable non-small cell lung cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, or colorectal cancer will be enrolled, as these malignancies carry a substantial risk of cancer cachexia, which is characterized by progressive loss of weight, muscle, and adipose tissue, accompanied by functional decline and reduced quality of life. Data collected includes demographic, physiologic, and clinical data, including tumor characteristics and biomarkers of inflammation, hormonal and metabolic status, body composition, physical function, and patient reported outcomes. Investigators will identify patient phenotypes (i.e., subgroups) that may reflect distinct biological or clinical pathways underlying cancer cachexia. By characterizing heterogeneity in cancer cachexia, this study aims to inform the development of improved diagnostic criteria and more targeted therapeutic strategies, ultimately enhancing clinical trial design and supportive care for patients with advanced colorectal, lung, or pancreatic cancer.

This phase I/II trial tests the effect of pegcetacoplan in combination with oxaliplatin, irinotecan, leucovorin, and fluorouracil (mFOLFIRINOX) in treating patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Pegcetacoplan works by targeting the immune complement process, a part of the immune system that defends against bacteria and may limit tumor progression and improve the immune system's response against tumor cells. Oxaliplatin is in a class of medications called platinum-containing antineoplastic agents. It damages the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. Irinotecan is in a class of antineoplastic medications called topoisomerase I inhibitors. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill tumor cells. Leucovorin is a drug used to lessen the toxic effects of substances that block the action of folic acid. Leucovorin is a form of folic acid. It is a type of chemoprotective agent and a type of chemosensitizing agent. Fluorouracil stops cells from making DNA and it may kill tumor cells. It is a type of antimetabolite. Giving pegcetacoplan in combination with mFOLFIRINOX may be safe, tolerable, and/or effecting in treating patients with metastatic PDAC. This trial also evaluates the effect of pegcetacoplan on the incidence of major thrombotic events and the resulting complications. Thrombosis is a common complication in patients with PDAC. Thrombosis occurs when blood clots block veins or arteries. Complications of thrombosis, such as stroke or heart attack, can be life-threatening. Giving pegcetacoplan may help prevent blood clots from forming and decrease the risk of major thrombotic events.

This phase III trial tests two questions by two separate comparisons of therapies. The first question is whether enhanced therapy (apalutamide in combination with abiraterone + prednisone) added to standard of care (prostate radiation therapy and short term androgen deprivation) is more effective compared to standard of care alone in patients with prostate cancer who experience biochemical recurrence (a rise in the blood level of prostate specific antigen \[PSA\] after surgical removal of the prostate cancer). A second question tests treatment in patients with biochemical recurrence who show prostate cancer spreading outside the pelvis (metastasis) by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. In these patients, the benefit of adding metastasis-directed radiation to enhanced therapy (apalutamide in combination with abiraterone + prednisone) is tested. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET, may help doctors look for cancer that has spread to the pelvis. Androgens are hormones that may cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Apalutamide may help fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of androgens by the tumor cells. Metastasis-directed targeted radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors that have spread. This trial may help doctors determine if using PET results to deliver more tailored treatment (i.e., adding apalutamide, with or without targeted radiation therapy, to standard of care treatment) works better than standard of care treatment alone in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.

This study is being done to answer the following questions: Can we lower the chance of your gastric cancer from growing or spreading by administering paclitaxel chemotherapy directly into your abdominal cavity in addition to chemotherapy given through a vein in your arm? Will administering paclitaxel chemotherapy directly into your abdominal cavity, in addition to chemotherapy given through a vein in your arm help you live longer? We are doing this study because we want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your gastric cancer. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for gastric cancer. If you decide to take part in this study, you will first receive a surgical procedure called a diagnostic laparoscopy. This will help the study doctors learn more about your gastric cancer. Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgery for which you will be placed under general anesthesia. Then the surgeon will make small incisions (5mm) on your belly through which a camera and thin instruments are introduced to evaluate the abdomen. This procedure takes about 1 hour to complete. Your study group will be assigned during the surgery. The study groups are described further in the 'What are the study groups?' section below. If you are placed into the study group 1, you will not have an intraperitoneal port (a small device which is placed under the skin and fat of your upper abdomen and a tube that is placed into the abdomen). If you are placed into the study group 2, you will have an intraperitoneal port placed. The reason is that in addition to standard chemotherapy, which is given through a vein in your arm, this port will be used to deliver the medication paclitaxel directly inside your abdomen when you are ready to start study treatment. It is important to know that you will not know your study group until after the surgery is over. This is because information that is learned during the surgery will help determine which study group you are put in. Once you have fully healed from this surgery, you will start study treatment. Depending on which study group you are assigned, you will either receive a standard chemotherapy regimen (the regimen will be chosen by you and your doctor) if you are in study group 1, or paclitaxel through a tube in your belly plus chemotherapy given through a vein in your arm if you are in study group 2. All participants will get treatment for three (3) months after which you will undergo reevaluation. If the disease is under control or responding to treatment, you may continue the assigned treatment until your disease gets worse, the side effects become too severe, or you may be offered a surgical procedure to remove the cancer if the amount of disease is low and can be completely removed as determined by a surgeon. There is a very small chance that during the laparoscopy surgical procedure, the doctor might find something called "intra-abdominal adhesions". These are areas where the stomach has healed previously and created scar tissue. If this scar tissue prevents the surgeon from being able to place a port in the correct area, you would be ineligible to receive the study treatment. If this happens, you may still receive standard of care therapy after your surgery, but you will not be able to continue on the study. If you have more questions about this, you can ask your surgeon or the study team to help. After you finish your study treatment, your doctor or study team will watch you for side effects. They will continue to follow your condition every three (3) months during the first two (2) years, then every six (6) months until year 5. You may be reevaluated with Chest/Abdomen/Pelvis scans every three-six (3-6) months for up to five (5) years if decided by your doctor.

This phase I trial studies how well fluorine F 18 fluorthanatrace positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) works in patients with solid tumors. 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 allow more tumor cells to be found in patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
