Prostate Adenocarcinoma Stage IIB Prostate Cancer Stage III Prostate Cancer Stage IV Prostate Cancer | Radiation: Copper Cu 64 TP3805 Procedure: Positron Emission Tomography Procedure: Computed Tomography Procedure: Radical Prostatectomy Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis | Phase 1 |
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the ability of Cu-64-TP3805 to detect prostate cancer (PC) within the prostate gland, as compared with whole mount step-sectioned surgical pathology of the prostate after radical prostatectomy.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive copper Cu 64 TP3805 intravenously (IV) and undergo PET/computed tomography (CT) at 30 minutes and 2 hours post-injection. Patients then undergo radical prostatectomy within 1 to 3 weeks after scans.
After completion of study, patients are followed up at 24 hours.

- Detection rate of Cu-64 PET imaging of PC [ Time Frame: Baseline (at time of surgery) ]The proportion of lesions detected with Cu-64 PET will be determined and compared with tumor maps derived from the whole mount step sectioned surgical pathology analysis of the radical prostatectomy specimen after surgery. 95% confidence intervals will be calculated. As a secondary analysis, a generalized estimating equations will be utilized to account for multiple lesions in an individual patient.
- Incidence of adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 30 days post Cu-64-TP3805 injection procedure ]
