Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study endpoints are the tumor SUV (upon intravenous and local<br /><br>intra-arterial injection), the SUV tumor-to-background ratio, [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11<br /><br>biodistribution, the correlation between the SUV and the degree of<br /><br>immunohistochemical PSMA expression of the tumor.</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Semi-quantitative comparison of tracer uptake in the tumor upon intravenous<br /><br>versus local intra-arterial injection of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11. </p><br>
