New treatment option for Prostate Carcinoma
Official title 99mTc-PSMA-I&S Biodistribution in Patients With Prostate Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04857502
What this study is testing
What is 99mTc-based PSMA Imaging and Surgery Agent?
99mTc-based PSMA Imaging and Surgery Agent is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for prostate carcinoma.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This exploratory study conducted under the RDRC program studies the biodistribution of 99mTc-PSMA-I\&S in patients with prostate cancer who undergo pelvic lymph node dissection. Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radio-guided surgery uses the preoperative intravenous administration of a PSMA-ligand called PSMA-imaging and surgery (I\&S) labeled with the gamma-emitter radioisotope Technetium-99m (99mTc).
