IND Regulatory & Manufacturing Resources
The Cancer Imaging Program has been creating Investigational New Drug Applications (IND) for imaging agents in order to engage in multi-center clinical trials of these materials. A subset of the documents filed is being made available to the research community to implement routine synthesis of tracers at their own facilities and to assist investigators with the filing of their own INDs. Documents for several tracers are currently available: [18F]-Sodium Fluoride, [18F] fluorothymidine (FLT), [18F] FMISO (1H-1-(3-[18F]-Fluoro-2-Hydroxy-Propyl)-2-Nitro-Imidazole), [18F] FES (16-α-[18F]Fluoroestradiol), [89Zr]-panitumumab, and [18F] DCFBC (N-[N-[(S)-1,3-dicarboxypropyl]carbamoyl]-4-(18)F-fluorobenzyl-L-cysteine).
