Summary

This trial uses PET-MRI and MRI scans to detect higher grade prostate cancer in men with low risk. It uses a radioactive drug to create detailed images of how organs and tissues are working.

Who is the study for?
Men aged 18+ with a life expectancy of at least 10 years, diagnosed with low or favorable intermediate risk prostate cancer (Gleason Grade Group 1 or 2), who have not had prior treatments for prostate cancer. They must have had a recent biopsy informed by mpMRI and be willing to undergo another biopsy. Those with certain concurrent diseases are allowed.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing if PET-MRI scans using rhPSMA-7.3 can better detect advanced stages of prostate cancer in men suitable for active surveillance. It compares detailed images from the radioactive drug rhPSMA-7.3 combined with MRI technology against standard diagnostic methods.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions to the radioactive drug like nausea, discomfort at injection site, allergic reactions, and temporary changes in blood tests. MRI-related side effects could involve discomfort due to loud noises or claustrophobia during the scan.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (rhPSMA, PET-MRI, mpMRI)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
Patients receive rhPSMA-7.3 IV then undergo PET-MRI and mpMRI of the prostate on study. Patients also undergo Decipher test at screening and MRI-PET prostate biopsy or radical prostatectomy within 90 days per standard of care.
