The investigators are imaging patients with prostate cancer using a new PET imaging agent
(Ga-68-PSMA-11) in order to evaluate it's ability to detection prostate cancer in patients
with biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy and radiation therapy.
(Ga-68-PSMA-11) in order to evaluate it's ability to detection prostate cancer in patients
with biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy and radiation therapy.
Inclusion Criteria
- Histopathologically proven prostate adenocarcinoma.
- Rising PSA (at least two consecutive rising PSAs) after definitive therapy with
prostatectomy or radiation therapy (external beam or brachytherapy).
- Post radical prostatectomy (RP) - AUA recommendation for biochemical recurrence
after radical prostatectomy
- PSA greater than or equal to 0.2 ng/mL measured more than 6 weeks after RP.
- Post-radiation therapy -ASTRO-Phoenix consensus definition of biochemical
recurrence after radiation therapy
- Nadir + greater than or equal to 2 ng/mL rise in PSA
- Karnofsky performance status of > 50 (or ECOG/WHO equivalent).
- Age > 18.
- Ability to understand a written informed consent document, and the willingness to sign
it.
Exclusion Criteria
- Unable to lie flat, still or tolerate a PET scan.
- Concomitant investigational therapy.
- Patient undergoing active treatment for non-prostate malignancy, other than skin basal
cell or cutaneous superficial squamous cell carcinoma that has not metastasized and
superficial bladder cancer.
- Contraindication to furosemide administration including prior allergy or adverse
reaction to furosemide or sulfa drugs. (Note: This exclusion criteria can be removed
if Furosemide is omitted as part of the PET imaging protocol if a second-generation
scatter correction is available for the used PET device).
