Drug: 18F-DCFPyL
18F-DCFPyL PET/CT |
- Number of Putative Sites of Metastatic Disease as Determined by 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Number of sites with 18F-DCFPyL uptake consistent with prostate cancer.
- Location of Putative Sites of Metastatic Disease as Determined by 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Location of uptake of 18F-DCFPyL consistent with prostate cancer.
- Correlation of 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT Findings With Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Levels [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Number of participants with PSA 0.2-1.0ng/mL OR PSA >1.0ng/mL with at least 1 site of uptake of 18F-DCFPyL consistent with prostate cancer.
- Correlation of Findings on 18FDCFPyL PET/CT With Those Found on Conventional Imaging (Bone Scan and Cross-sectional Imaging) [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Number of sites with uptake on 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT and corresponding lesions identified on conventional imaging.
- Correlation of Findings on 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT With Tissue Histology and PSMA Expression of Biopsied/Resected Pathology Specimens [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Number of sites with 18F-DCFPyL uptake from which biopsy specimens show PSMA expression.
- Correlation of 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT Findings With Time to Disease Progression [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
- Assessment of Treatment Response by 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
