primary Outcomes
  1. description
    The CDR was defined as the percentage of all patients scanned who had at least one TP lesion (localized correspondence between rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) PET imaging and the reference standard) regardless of any coexisting FP findings. When determining the region-level PPV, all rhPSMA7.3 (18F) PET-positive regions (maximum of three per patient) were categorized as TP or FP regions using histopathology or imaging.

Full study description
brief Summary
A prospective, Phase 3, multi center, single-arm, imaging study investigating the safety and diagnostic performance of rhPSMA 7.3 (18F) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) ligand in men with suspected prostate cancer recurrence based on elevated Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) following prior therapy.
detailed Description
The primary objective of this study was to assess the patient-level correct detection rate (CDR) and region-level positive predictive value (PPV) of rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) positron emission tomography (PET) for biochemical recurrence (BCR) of prostate cancer using histopathology or imaging as a standard of truth (SoT).
