Comparing two PSMA PET scans for prostate cancer recurrence
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of PET scans to see which one is better at finding prostate cancer that has come back after surgery. The scans use different radioactive tracers to highlight cancer cells. You may be eligible if your PSA is rising slowly after surgery and you have not had radiation or hormone therapy yet.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a man aged 18 or older
- You have had your prostate removed due to prostate cancer
- Your PSA level is between 0.20 and 0.75 ng/mL and is rising
- You have not had salvage radiation therapy after your surgery
- You have had a 68Ga PSMA-11 PET scan in the last 4 weeks
- You are not currently on hormone therapy for prostate cancer

This trial uses a special PET scan to detect prostate cancer when your PSA level is slightly rising after prostate removal surgery. It aims to find cancer early so treatment decisions can be better informed.
This trial looks at using a PSMA PET/CT scan to better re-check cancer activity in men whose PSA has started rising after prostate removal. If you qualify, the scan may help doctors choose the next best treatment step.
This trial compares two types of PET/CT scans (using different radioactive tracers) to see which is better at finding prostate cancer, tracking its return, or spotting spread. It's for people with prostate cancer or those being checked for recurrence after treatment.
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a special PET scan using 68Ga-PSMA-11 can detect prostate cancer that has returned after surgery or radiation, measured by rising PSA. If the scan works well, it may help doctors find where the cancer is coming back.
This trial looks at how well a special PET scan (called PSMA PET) can find prostate cancer that has come back after treatment. It uses a radioactive tracer to spot cancer cells. Your doctor may already have ordered this scan as part of your regular care.
This study tests a new type of PET scan (a detailed imaging test) to find out if prostate cancer has come back after treatment. You'll receive an injection of a special tracer and then have a scan that takes pictures to help doctors locate any cancer.
