Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This phase II trial studies how well 11C-choline (carbon C 11 choline) and 18F-choline (fluorine F 18 choline) positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance (PET/MR) imaging works in diagnosing patients with unfavorable intermediate to high-risk prostate cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as 11C- and 18F-choline PET/MR may help find and diagnose prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess the ability of 11C- and 18F-choline PET/MR to detect and localize prostate cancer within the prostate gland.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess the ability of 11C- and 18F-choline PET/MR to detect the specific location of metastatic prostate cancer within pelvic lymph node regions in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy and extended pelvic lymph node dissection.

II. To assess the comparative performance of 11C- and 18F-choline PET/MR to already available imaging scans (bone scan, sodium fluoride positron emission tomography/computed tomography \[NaF PET/CT\], multiparametric1H magnetic resonance imaging \[MRI\], and/or pelvic CT scans) for detecting and localization of disease within the prostate, lymph nodes, and distant metastatic sites.

III. To determine the temporal distribution of 11C- and 18F-choline radiotracer in patients. The tissue uptake, retention, and clearance will be determined.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare regions of uptake on the 11C- and 18F-choline PET/MR to that on the sentinel lymph node imaging scans in patients undergoing sentinel lymph node-guided extended pelvic lymph node dissection.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo 11C- and 18F-choline whole-body PET/MR imaging. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 3 hours
