Study Title

Pilot Study: Imaging Tumor Extent and Response Before and After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer Using 64Cu-Labeled M5A Antibody to Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA)

Study Details

Description:

This early phase I trial investigates how well 64Cu-labeled M5A antibody scan works in assessing tumor activity before and after patients with rectal cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) who are undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Using 64Cu-labeled M5A positron emission tomography imaging may play a significant role in imaging patients with colorectal cancer.
