Summary

Men with a history of prostate cancer may be in this study. Subjects recommended for a prostatectomy or oligometastectomy will undergo PET/CT imaging using a novel radiotracer \[18F\]FTT to evaluate PARP-1 activity in known or suspected sites of primary or metastatic disease. Imaging will be compared with pathology results, including additional research assays when possible.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

[18F]FluorThanatrace

Fluorine-18 labeled FluorThanatrace \[18F\]FTT can be synthesized with high specific activity so the quantity of mass injected with the radiopharmaceutical is \< 10 μg.

DRUG

Poly(ADP Ribose) Polymerase 1

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a family of enzymes involved in base excision repair (the repair of DNA single-strand breaks) and alternative end joining (repair of DNA double-strand breaks). The molecular basis of PARP1 inhibitor function may depend on the dual roles of PARP1 as a modulator of gene transcription in addition to DNA damage repair 3.
