PET scan imaging test for newly diagnosed prostate cancer
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests a new imaging agent (68Ga-NYM032) used with PET/CT scans to help doctors better detect prostate cancer before surgery. If you have biopsy-confirmed prostate cancer and are planning to have your prostate removed, this trial may help evaluate whether this new imaging method improves cancer detection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are male and at least 18 years old
- You have biopsy-confirmed prostate cancer (cancer diagnosis confirmed by tissue sample)
- You are planning to have prostate removal surgery with pelvic lymph node removal
- You are in good enough health to survive at least 6 more months (ECOG score 0–2)
- You can understand and sign an informed consent form
- You haven't had other radioactive imaging agents in the past 2–4 weeks

This study compares two types of special imaging scans (PET/CT scans) to see which one better detects prostate cancer or its recurrence. You would undergo both scans as part of the research to help doctors improve how they find and treat prostate cancer.
This trial compares two types of PET scans—one using a new tracer called [18F]F-PSMA-N5 and another using an existing tracer called [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11—to see which is better at finding prostate cancer, including early signs of recurrence. If you have or are suspected of having prostate cancer, this study may help determine how advanced the disease is.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan using a radioactive tracer called [68Ga]DOTA-IR-780-C-4 to see if it can find prostate cancer cells that express a protein called PSMA. If you have advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard treatments, this scan may help your doctor better understand your cancer and possibly guide future care.
This study tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (68Ga-MY6349) to better see prostate cancer in the body. It may help doctors find cancer that has come back or spread, so you can get the right treatment sooner.
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.
This research study tests a new imaging scan (called 68Ga-OncoACP3-PET/CT) to help find prostate cancer and see where it may have spread. The scan uses a radioactive tracer to help doctors visualize cancer cells and decide on the best treatment options.
