PET Imaging With [18F]F-AraG in Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
This is a prospective, single center, single-arm clinical trial in 20 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing PD-1/PD-L1-directed therapy. This research is being done to find out if the radioactive compound called \[18F\]F-AraG is a helpful imaging agent for detecting changes in cancer's anti-tumor immune response (or activation of T-cell) levels for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who will receive a cancer immunotherapy regimen (immunotherapy works by encouraging the body's own immune system to attack the cancer cells).

Who may be able to participate
The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.
- Age 18 years or older and willing and able to provide informed consent.
- Subjects with stage I, II, or III A NSCLC and plan to receive neoadjuvant PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy with an intention for curative surgery. Subjects will be receiving neoadjuvant immunotherapy through enrollment in therapeutic clinical trials
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1, or 2 at the time of enrollment.
- For females of childbearing potential, negative serum pregnancy test within a 10 day period will be obtained prior to PET study.
- Severe impaired renal function with estimated glomerular filtration rate \<30 mL/min/1.73 m2 and/or on dialysis.
- Pregnant female patients; breastfeeding female patients.
- Any medical condition that in the opinion of the study investigators would constitute a safety risk to the subject.
- Any investigational radiation exposure in the past calendar year that in combination with the radiation exposure from this study would exceed 5 rem.
- Administered a radioisotope ≤5 physical half-lives prior to the day of PET/CT.
Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
