PSMA PET/MRI for prostate cancer diagnosis
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests a new, all-in-one PET/MRI scan to see if it can better find aggressive prostate cancer in men who need a biopsy. It may help avoid unnecessary biopsies and give a clearer picture of your condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old and male.
- Your doctor suspects you might have prostate cancer and recommends a biopsy.
- You are able to have an MRI (no pacemaker, severe claustrophobia, or severe kidney problems).
- You are able to have a prostate biopsy without medical issues.
- You have never been diagnosed with prostate cancer before.

This study uses a special type of PET scan called PSMA PET to better understand and track prostate cancer. The scan helps doctors see where the cancer is in the body and if treatment is working.
This study tests whether a special scan (PSMA PET/MRI) combined with a standard MRI can better detect prostate cancer. It is for men who have not had a biopsy yet and are suspected of having prostate cancer.
This study tests whether a special type of PET/MRI scan (PSMA PET/MRI) can help doctors find hidden prostate cancer in men who have a rising PSA but previous negative biopsies and a non-suspicious MRI. It aims to improve detection without skipping needed treatment.
This trial compares two imaging techniques—PSMA PET/CT and MRI—to see which one better finds and outlines prostate cancer tumors. You'll receive both scans to help doctors understand which method works best for newly diagnosed prostate cancer.
This study tests whether a special PET scan (PSMA PET) can better detect prostate cancer in men whose MRI results are unclear. If it works, it may help avoid unnecessary biopsies or find cancer sooner.
This study is testing whether a special scan called a PSMA PET can help find significant prostate cancer in men who are already scheduled for an MRI-guided biopsy. It aims to see if combining the two scans gives a better picture of which prostate areas need to be biopsied.
