💬In plain words
What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
The purpose of this research study is to test the efficacy of ADT on prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), a marker of prostate cancer, before and after scheduled ADT. Follow up will be 48 months your prostate removal to do a blood test and log if any new or worsening symptoms have occurred as a part of your standard-of-care (SOC).

* Patient is willing to use barrier-method of contraception along with another effective contraceptive method if engaged in sexual activity with a pregnant person or individual of childbearing potential (until 1 week after completing 18F-flotufolastat PSMA PET/CT Scans.
* Clinical laboratory values during screening:
1. Hemoglobin ≥ 10.0 g/dL
2. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.8 × 10⁹/L
3. Platelets ≥ 100 × 10⁹/L
Exclusion Criteria:
* Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to 18F-flotufolastat.
* Unable to receive androgen deprivation therapy.
* Prostate cancer with significant neuroendocrine or other rare variant pathology
* Evidence of metastatic disease involving bone, viscera, or lymph nodes superior to the bifurcation of the common iliac arteries on PSMA PET/CT
* Renal impairment (glomerular filtration rate \<30 mL/min)
* History of prior radiation therapy for prostate cancer
* Any of the following within 6 months prior to the first dose of study treatment: severe or unstable angina, myocardial infarction, symptomatic congestive heart failure, clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias, or New York Heart Association Class II to IV heart disease.

* Other malignancies other than prostate cancer in the past 5 years
a. Cured basal cell or squamous cell skin cancers can be enrolled.
* Severe or uncontrolled concurrent infections are not eligible.
* Treated with concomitant cytotoxic cancer therapy for any other primary site.
* Patients who are unable to complete the study requirements of 2nd PSMA imaging or surgery for the primary endpoints.
* Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude participation in this study.
