Study Summary

This trial aims to use a new imaging scan called 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 PET/MRI to identify patients at risk of their prostate cancer spreading to the lymph nodes. This

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men with high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread beyond the prostate. They're looking at how well a new type of PET/MRI scan can predict if the cancer has reached the lymph nodes, which could help decide if patients need further surgery to remove these nodes.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests an imaging technique using a radioactive substance (18F-rhPSMA-7.3) combined with PET and MRI scans to detect potential spread of prostate cancer to lymph nodes in patients who are already scheduled for radical prostatectomy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions to the radioactive tracer used in the PET scan or discomfort from lying still during imaging procedures like MRI and CT scans.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Screening (18F-rhPSMA-7.3 PET/MRI)Experimental Treatment9 Interventions
Patients receive 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 IV and undergo PET/MRI up to 30 days prior to SOC robotic radical prostatectomy with bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection. Patients also undergo CT or MRI, bone scan and tissue collection during screening.
