68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/MRI in Finding Tumors in Patients With Intermediate or High-Risk Prostate Cancer Undergoing Surgery

Trial ID or NCT#

Status

not recruiting iconNOT RECRUITING

Purpose

This phase 2-3 trial studies the utility of 68-gallium (68Ga)-prostate-specific membrane antigen 11 (PSMA-11) positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) to find tumors in patients with prostate cancer who are undergoing resection surgery for prostate cancer that is prognostically expected to spread quickly (intermediate-risk) or is likely to come back or spread (high-risk). Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/MRI, may help find and diagnose prostate cancer, and reveal out how far the disease has spread. Radioactive drugs, such as 68Ga-PSMA-11, may bind to tumor cells that have specific receptors, and may allow doctors to see smaller tumors than the standard of care contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) or MRI scan.
