Theranostic Applications of Radionuclides in Prostate Cancer

April 23, 2026 updated by: Wei Fu, Guilin Medical University, China

ACP3 Targeted -PET/ CT in Prostate Cancer

The objective of the study is to construct a noninvasive approach ACP3 targeted PET/CT to detect tumor lesions in patients with prostate cancer and to compare with PSMA/FDG PET/CT.

Detailed Description

ACP3 targeting PET radiotracer is promising as an excellent imaging agent applicable to prostate cancer. In this research, subjects with prostate cancer or highly suspected recurrence detection underwent contemporaneous ACP3 PET/CT and standard-of-care imaging (PSMA/FDG PET/CT) either for an initial assessment or for metastases or highly suspected recurrence detection. Tumor uptake was quantified by the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax). The numbers of positive tumor lesions of standard-of-care imaging and 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT were recorded by visual interpretation. The diagnostic accuracy of ACP3 PET/CT was calculated and compared to standard-of-care imaging.
