About this trial

* To perform metabolic phenotyping of treatment naïve and recurrent GBM by multitracer \[18F\]Fluciclovine and 18F-FDG PET. * To compare uptake measures of 18F-Fluciclovine and 18F-FDG and MRI quantification of glutamate and lactate levels to tumor tissue laboratory assays (RNA seq and proteomics) of glutamine/glutamate, glucose, and lactate metabolism. * To perform metabolic phenotyping of treatment naïve and recurrent GBM by advanced MRI methods at 7 Tesla

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Participants will be ≥ 18 years of age

New contrast-enhancing lesion or lesions showing increased enhancement (>25%increase) in a patient with a historical diagnosis of glioblastoma (histologic or molecular proof) on standard MRI after completion of treatment

Recommended for clinically indicated surgical resection

Life expectancy of greater than 3 months in the opinion of an investigator or treating physician.

Disqualifiers

Inability to tolerate imaging procedures in the opinion of an investigator or treating physician

Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of screening will not be eligible for this study; a urine pregnancy test will be performed in women of childbearing potential prior to injection.

Any current medical condition, illness, or disorder as assessed by medical record review and/or self-reported that is considered by a physician investigator to be a condition that could compromise participant safety or successful participation in the study
