PSMA vs FACBC compared to PLND for lymph node staging in primary prostate cancer

Phase 1
Conditions
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common malignancy amongst men in Westerncountries. In order to select the most suitable treatment for patients diagnosed with PCa, it is importantto stage accurately. Both 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT and anti-3-[18F] FACBC PET/CT are currently mostly used to detectrecurrence in treated PCa, while the diagnostic value in detecting lymph node metastasis in primaryprostate cancer is not yet clear.
