Phase N/A

The study objective is to assess the performance of [18F]-DCFPyl PET with whole-body MRI and multiparametric pelvic/prostate MRI for PCa detection in men with recurrence as determined by biochemical PSA level or evidence on CIM. Results of tracer uptake and MRI image features on whole body PET/MRI and dedicated pelvic/prostate PET/MRI, alone and together, will be correlated and compared to detection of lesions on CIM that usually includes bone scan (BS) and CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis, or PET imaging with F-18 Fluciclovine. In addition, in patients who undergo a biopsy when performed as standard of care, image features will correlate directly with histopathological findings on lesion biopsy to directly demonstrate that 'radiotracer and/or MRI positive' lesions contain tumor cells.

To test the hypothesis, this study is being proposed using the [18F]-DCFPyL PET tracer for the detection of PCa in patients with biochemical recurrence or evidence on CIM. The [18F]-DCFPyL PET tracer will be provided by the company Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (New York, New York) and conducted under an investigational new drug (IND) approval received by Stony Brook University.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
