Summary

This trial is investigating whether a new imaging technique, PSMA-PET, can help guide treatment and find predictive imaging biomarkers through deep learning techniques in men with prostate cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men with prostate cancer who are being treated at CHUM and have been recommended by their doctor to get a PSMA-PET scan. It's not suitable for those who can't undergo imaging procedures due to claustrophobia or other reasons.
What is being tested?
The study tests the use of a new PET probe called [18F]DCFPyL IV injection in detecting metastases in prostate cancer patients. It aims to combine this advanced imaging technique with deep learning to find predictive biomarkers.
What are the potential side effects?
As the intervention involves an imaging procedure, potential side effects may include discomfort from lying still during the scan and reactions to the tracer like mild rash or nausea, though serious side effects are rare.
