Timing matters: study seeks best moment for PSMA scans after hormone therapy

NCT ID NCT05919329

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at how hormonal therapy changes PSMA levels in men with prostate cancer, both in early and advanced stages. Researchers will use PSMA PET scans at different times after starting therapy to see when the scan is most accurate for staging the cancer. The goal is to improve the timing of these scans to better guide treatment decisions.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Piflufolastat F-18 (a radioactive tracer used in PSMA PET scans)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could help doctors schedule PSMA PET scans more accurately, improving tumor staging and treatment planning for prostate cancer patients.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase observational study focused on timing, not a treatment. Results may not change clinical practice immediately or apply to all patients.
