Prostate cancer
Results
Phase 1
This trial found out more about a combination of substances (a compound) that may be used in future in scans to diagnose prostate cancer. The treatment you have for cancer depends on how far it has grown or spread when you are diagnosed (the stage). So it is important that tests or scans give doctors as much information as possible. Scientists have developed a compound called ‘99mTcDB4’, which they hoped would show up prostate cancer more clearly on a scan.
This trial was supported by Cancer Research UK.
