[18F]Radiocaine: Radiation and Radiochemical Safety
Lutroo Imaging LLC
Summary
This is a Phase 1, single-center, open-label study evaluating the safety, biodistribution, and radiation dosimetry of Radiocaine™, an investigational fluorine-18-labeled PET radiotracer designed to bind voltage-gated sodium channels. The study enrolls adult volunteers and aims to inform future clinical development in molecular imaging applications. Radiocaine™ is being developed as a potential diagnostic imaging agent and imaging biomarker for the localization and quantification of sodium channel activity.
Description
This is a Phase 1, single-center, open-label study evaluating the safety, biodistribution, and radiation dosimetry of Radiocaine™, an investigational fluorine-18-labeled PET radiotracer designed to bind voltage-gated sodium channels. The study will enroll six healthy adult volunteers, each of whom will receive a single intravenous dose of Radiocaine™. Serial PET/MR imaging will be performed over several hours post-injection to assess the distribution of the radiotracer in various tissues and organs. Blood and urine samples will be collected at predefined timepoints to support pharmacokinetic…
