Study Title

2-(3-{1-carboxy-5-[(6-18F-fluoro-pyridine-3-carbonyl)-Amino]-Pentyl}-Ureido)-Pentanedioic Acid (PyL) in Patients With High Risk and Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer

Study Details

Description:

The standard of care imaging of prostate cancer metastases recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), CT of the chest/abdomen/pelvis and bone scan, may be suboptimal. PyL is a novel PET tracer designed to detect prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expressed on prostate cancer cells. PyL PET/CT may provide improved evaluation of clinically significant metastases in patients with prostate cancer.
