PSMA PET Imaging of Recurrent Prostate Cancer
The purpose of this study is to see if a new diagnostic research agent named 68Ga-HBED-CC-PSMA can show prostate cancer on a PET/CT scan that cannot be seen on other standard imaging even when the PSA levels are very low.
• Biopsy proven adenocarcinoma of the prostate
• Initially treated with definitive local therapy (surgery and radiation therapy are the most common treatments, but other treatments are also eligible)
• For patients initially treated with surgery, radiation therapy, brachytherapy, or cryotherapy:
• PSA ≥ 0.2 ng/mL in at least two consecutive tests within 6 months of date of consent for patients
• Note: The most recent PSA value must be within 6 weeks of consent
• For patients who have received additional treatment in the recurrent or metastatic setting:
• ° PSA ≥ 2 ng/ml above the most recent therapy nadir
• Age ≥ 18 years
• Patient must be able to tolerate PET/CT or PET/MR imaging
