About this trial
This study will use Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) and (18)F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography (FDG PET) imaging in patients with advanced prostate cancer to learn about tumor biology across disease stages and during treatment. This may help with treatment selection and potential response monitoring in the future.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Male, age ≥ 18 years
