Radiotracer Characterization
Determine the suitability of the radiotracer to provide quantitative information on the biological target or process of interest.
Normo/Pathophysiology Investigation
Identify physiological changes due to disease, age, or genetic status.
Measure drug concentration in tissue over time.
Determine the relationship between plasma concentration and biological target occupancy.
Pharmacodynamic Responses
Assess changes in pharmacodynamic responses as a function of therapeutic candidate dose.
Proof of Concept (POC)/First-in-Human (FIH)
Initial evaluation of a novel radiotracer to assess its suitability as a tool compound for the biological target or process of interest.
Characterization of the whole body and/or organ-specific distribution of a radiotracer over time to assess the energy deposition in tissue and correlate this to a defined measure of harm (Rem or Sievert).
Characterization of the whole body and/or organ-specific distribution of a radiotracer over time to assess the energy deposition in tissue and correlate this to a defined measure of harm (Rem or Sievert).
A study to determine the change in biological process or target
of interest over time.
A research study conducted across multiple locations, often involving treatment with a drug and/or placebo, with imaging included for the full study or as a sub-study.
Imaging Center Only Study
Perceptive supports imaging-based studies for eligibility, safety, or biomarker assessments, serving as an imaging center for subjects at single specialty centers or multi-site national and international trials.
Our expertise includes site coordination, patient travel logistics, scan acquisition, arterial/venous line placement, and metabolite analysis.
A study examining biological markers—such as proteins, genes, or molecules—to improve understanding of health and disease, aiding in diagnosis, treatment planning, prediction, and tracking treatment success.
