NCT ID NCT05948657
First seen Feb 28, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a special type of scan called PSMA-PET CT can accurately rule out serious prostate cancer in men who are currently on active surveillance (monitoring the cancer without immediate treatment). Researchers will enroll 200 men with low or favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer. If the scan works well, it may help many men avoid yearly biopsies and the anxiety that comes with them.
