Official title
Clinical Management Decisions Based on [11C]Acetate Positron Emission Tomography Performed on Prostate Cancer Patients With Biochemical Recurrence
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
When evaluating prostate cancer patients for recurrent disease, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are both highly sensitive methods for detecting lymph nodes, but are not specific as to whether the lymph nodes are malignant or benign. While positron emission tomography (PET) utilizing radioactive glucose (FDG) has revolutionized staging, restaging, and monitoring response to therapy in many prevalent cancers such as breast, colorectal, esophageal, head and neck, lung, lymphoma, and melanoma, findings with prostate cancer have proven less sensitive because prostate cancer has a lower avidity for glucose. A newer PET isotope, utilizing acetate that is incorporated into the cell membrane of rapidly proliferating cells, has shown greater sensitivity than FDG in detecting prostate cancer. This study will assess the clinical effectiveness of utilizing \[11C\]Acetate PET scans in identifying recurrent prostate cancer.
