First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study involves 400 men with high-risk prostate cancer who have not yet received treatment. Researchers are using a special type of scan called PSMA PET to see if it can find cancer that has spread to lymph nodes or other parts of the body, which standard scans often miss. The goal is to create a model that combines routine test results to predict who might have hidden cancer, helping doctors make better treatment decisions.
