Study Title

A Study of Prospective Monitoring of Subjects With Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer Using 18F-DCFPyL

Study Details

Description:

Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in American men. The disease recurs in up to 50,000 men each year after their early-stage disease was treated; however, at this stage, imaging scans are often unable to find the disease in the body. In this natural history study, researchers want to find out if a new radiotracer (18F-DCFPyL) injected before positron emission tomography (PET) imaging can help identify sites in the body with cancer.
