Official Title: A Study of Prospective Monitoring of Subjects With Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer Using 18F-DCFPyL
Brief Summary:
Background: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.Objective:To learn more about how…
