Summary

This trial seeks to test a new imaging agent to help diagnose spread of head & neck cancer to other parts of the body. Participants will get the agent and then get scans to compare to standard of care imaging.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 19 with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, who have indeterminate metastatic lesions as shown by PET/CT scans. They must have a certain level of hemoglobin, kidney function (eGFR), and platelet count. Excluded are those with recent severe heart conditions, renal disease, pulmonary issues, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or allergies to similar drugs.
What is being tested?
The study tests an imaging agent called 89Zr panitumumab combined with PET/CT scanning to detect the spread of cancer in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. It aims to see if this new method is more accurate than standard MRI, CT or PET/CT scans in identifying metastases.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to the infusion of monoclonal antibodies like Panitumumab such as allergic responses. Since it's an imaging test involving radiation exposure from Zirconium Zr 89 Panitumumab there might be risks associated with that as well.
