About this study
Official title: Hydroxyephedrine PET/CT in Sympathetic Nervous System Diseases
To evaluate the potential usefulness of 11C/18F-HED positron emission tomography/ computed tomography (PET/CT) for the diagnosis of primary and metastatic lesions in various Tau-related disease patients.
Read the detailed description
Subjects with various sympathetic nerves-related disease patients underwent 11C/18F-HED PET/CT either for an initial assessment or for recurrence detection. Lesions uptake was quantified by the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy of 11C/18F-HED PET/CT were calculated.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
11C/18F-HEDDiagnostic test
Each subject receive a single intravenous injection of 11C/18F-HED and undergo PET/CT or MRI imaging within the specificed time.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Single Group Assignment | Each subject receive a single intravenous injection of 11C/18F-HED and undergo PET/CT or MRI imaging within the specificed time. Receives: Diagnostic Test: 11C/18F-HED |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Standardized uptake value (SUV)
Standardized uptake value (SUV) of 11C/18F-HED for each target lesion of subject or suspected primary tumor or/and metastasis.
Measured: 30 days
Secondary outcomes (1)
Diagnostic efficacy
The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of HED PET/CT were calculated.
Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?

Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Sep 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 China. 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.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Haonan Yu, MD (+8613821000597, dreamadam@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Standardized uptake value (SUV) (time frame: 30 days). 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 8 Sep 2026.
