Study of PSMA PET/CT Imaging to Help Select Men With Low-Risk Prostate Cancer for Active Surveillance

Overview

This is a multicenter, prospective diagnostic accuracy study evaluating the Istanbul PSMA PET/CT Criteria (IPPC) for selecting patients with biopsy-confirmed low-risk prostate cancer (ISUP Grade 1) for active surveillance (AS). The study integrates delayed Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT imaging into the diagnostic pathway to refine patient stratification, minimize overtreatment and potentially reduce unnecessary biopsies and MRI, or exposing high-risk individuals to the danger of cancer progression if left untreated scans.
