Abstract
- Since April 201, we have introduced PET/CT using a ligand of prostate-specific membrane antigen labeled with gallium-68 (PSMA-11). We aimed to evaluate its positivity rate and impact in patients presenting biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer whosePatients were prospectively included between April and December 2016. PET/CT was performed 60min after injection of 2MBq/kg of body mass ofThirty-three patients were included. The mean PSA serum level measured on the month of the PSMA-11 PET/CT was 2,8ng/mL. Twenty-five (76%) PSMA-11 PET/CT were positive, 7 (21%) negative and 1 (3%) equivocal. Of 11 patients whose FCH PET/CT showed equivocal foci, PSMA-11 PET/CT confirmed those foci in 5 cases. Follow-up was available for 18 patients (55%). PSMA-11 PET/CT results led to a change in management in 12 patients (67%).5.
