About this study

Official title: Phase II Study Evaluating Zr-Panitumumab for Assessment of Suspected Metastatic Lesions on 18F-FDG-PET/CT in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to determine the diagnostic utility of 89Zr-panitumumab to identify metastatic lesion(s) in subjects with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE(S):

  • Determine the sensitivity and specificity of 89Zr-panitumumab for the detection of suspected metastatic lesions

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE(S):

  • Compare sensitivity and specificity of 18F-FDG-PET/CT and 89Zr-panitumumab-PET/CT for detection of suspected metastatic lesions
Being tested
89Zr-panitumumab IV, Panitumumab
Medical subject headings
Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 89Zr-panitumumab IVDrug

    Subjects will be given a bolus of 1.0 mCi (range 0.8 - 1.2 mCi) of 89Zr-panitumumab before undergoing further standard of care diagnostic evaluation of the lesions

  • PanitumumabDrug

    Panitumumab 30mg will be given orally

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Sensitivity and Specificity of 89Zr-panitumumab

    The total number of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma-involved incidental lesions will be determined and correlated to the radiologically suspicious lesions identified by 89Zr-panitumumab using PET/CT imaging.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sensitivity and Specificity 89Zr-panitumumab compared to standard of care 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging

    The total number of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma-involved incidental lesions will be determined and correlated to the radiologically suspicious lesions identified by 18F-FDG using PET/CT imaging. The specificity and sensitivity of 89Zr-panitumumab will be compared to the specificity and sensitivity of 18F-FDG for identification of metastatic lesions.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 89Zr-panitumumab IV and Panitumumab in people with Head-and-neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by Andrei Iagaru at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity and Specificity of 89Zr-panitumumab (time frame: Up to 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Aug 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
