68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in Imaging Patients With Intermediate or High Risk Prostate Cancer Before Surgery

This clinical trial studies how well 68Ga-PSMA-11 positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) works in imaging patients with intermediate or high risk prostate cancer before surgery. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/CT scans, may help find and diagnose prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread.

Sex

Male

Inclusion Criteria:

* Biopsy proven prostate adenocarcinoma
* Considered for prostatectomy with lymph node dissection
* Intermediate to high-risk disease (as determined by elevated prostate specific antigen \[PSA\] \[PSA \> 10\], tumor \[T\]-stage \[T2b or greater\], Gleason score \[Gleason score \> 6\] or other risk factors)
* Able to provide written consent
* Karnofsky performance status of \>= 50 (or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group \[ECOG\]/World Health Organization \[WHO\] equivalent)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients not capable of getting PET study due to weight, claustrophobia, or inability to lay still for the duration of the exam
* Neoadjuvant chemotherapy or radiation therapy prior to prostatectomy including focal ablation techniques (high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation \[HiFu\])
