Brief summary public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

Single centre prospective cohort phase III study of 18F-DOPA PET/CT imaging in specific patient populations: 1. Pediatric patients with congenital hyperinsulinism 2. Pediatric patients with neuroblastoma 3. Pediatric or Adult patients with suspected extra-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor 4. Adult patients with a clinical suspicion of Parkinson's disease 5. Pediatric or Adult patients with primary brain tumors This study will evaluate the biodistribution and safety of 18F-DOPA produced at the Edmonton PET Centre.

Intervention public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

Drug: 18F-DOPA. 18F-DOPA intravenous injection single dose

Arm public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

18F-DOPA scan (experimental): 18F-DOPA (4 MBq/kg, minimum 110 MBq, maximum 600 MBq) intravenous. Single-dose 20-80 minutes prior to PET/CT scan of brain or whole body (depending on specific imaging protocol for patient).

Primary outcome public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

Immediate safety evaluation. Clinical screen for adverse reactions to 18F-DOPA injection Time frame: Within 1 hour of injection.

Secondary outcome public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

Delayed safety evaluation. Time frame: 10-14 days after injection.

Secondary outcome public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

Delayed safety evaluation - referring physician. Time frame: 6 months after injection.

Secondary outcome public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

Biodistribution: scan interpreter will evaluate the distribution of tracer and comment if expected. Time frame: Within 3 days after injection.

Secondary outcome public domain (ClinicalTrials.gov)

Perceived clinical benefit. Time frame: 6 months after injection.
