FDA Approves Telix's Brain Cancer Imaging Drug Pixclara

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Pixclara® (floretyrosine F 18 or 18F-FET), an amino acid positron emission tomography (PET) drug for imaging gliomas (brain cancer). This marks the first FDA-approved FET-PET imaging drug for glioma, addressing a significant unmet need by helping physicians differentiate recurrent or progressive glioma from treatment-related changes in adults and pediatric patients.
