Precision strike on prostate cancer: new scans guide treatment to spreading cells

NCT ID NCT04175431

Summary

This study is testing if two advanced types of PET scans can help doctors see exactly where prostate cancer has spread after initial treatment. For men whose cancer has returned and spread to only a few spots, the scans will guide targeted treatment like radiation or surgery to those specific areas, followed by medication. The goal is to control the cancer's spread for as long as possible and delay the need for broader hormone therapy.
