| Summary | A \[68\]Ga-HA-DOTATATE PET/CT or PET/MRI scan is a nuclear medicine test used to create pictures of the whole body that will show where somatostatin receptors are found, including on tumours. Somatostatin receptors are found on most neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), and some other types of tumours. Currently at the Cross Cancer Institute, most patients with suspected somatostatin positive tumours (e.g. NETs) have an In-111 Octreotide (Octreoscan™) scan. A scientific study has shown that a scan with a similar product (\[68\]Ga-DOTATATE) is more accurate than an Octreoscan™. This study will look at \[68\]Ga-HA-DOTATATE, a product virtually identical to \[68\]Ga-DOTATATE. The purpose of this study is to: 1) demonstrate the safety of \[68\]Ga-HA-DOTATATE; and 2) confirm that \[68\]Ga-HA-DOTATATE |
| Who can participate | Inclusion Criteria: 1. Known or suspected somatostatin receptor positive tumour including, but not limited to, GNET, PNET, pulmonary NET, PRUNK NET, pheochromocytoma, paraganglioma, medullary thyroid cancer, and medulloblastoma. A standard CT obtained within 6 months of enrolment is required. A standard MRI obtained within 6 months of enrolment is optional. Additional supporting evidence obtained within 12 months of enrolment may include: other standard imaging (In-111 octreotide (Octreoscan), \[18\]F-FDG PET, or \[18\]F-FDOPA PET); histopathology from surgery or biopsy; elevated biochemical markers (including Chromogranin A, 5-HIAA, insulin, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), glucagon, gastrin, metanephrines, and/or others, as clinically indicated); and/or persistent carcinoid-like symp |
