¹⁸F-rhPSMA-7 PET for the Detection of Biochemical Recurrence of Prostate Cancer After Curative-Intent Radiation Therapy: A Bicentric Retrospective Study.

ABSTRACT: This bicentric, retrospective analysis investigated the efficacy of PET/CT with a novel theranostic prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)--targeting ligand, ¹⁸F-rhPSMA-7, in patients with biochemical recurrence (BCR) of prostate cancer after curative-intent primary radiotherapy. Methods: Datasets from patients with BCR of prostate cancer after external-beam radiation therapy or brachytherapy who underwent ¹⁸F-rhPSMA-7 PET/CT at either Technical University Munich or Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich were retrospectively reviewed by experienced nuclear medicine physicians and radiologists at both centers. The median injected activity was 299 MBq (range, 204-420 MBq), and the median uptake time was 77 min (range, 46-120 min). All lesions suggestive of recur
