The advent of PSMA diagnostics and therapy has constituted a paradigm shift in the management of prostate cancer, supplanting other clinical and radiological diagnostic techniques. Consequently, \[18F\]PSMA-1007 (Radelumin®) has been approved in several EU countries, most recently in Germany in 2024, for use in primary staging of high-risk prostate cancer and re-staging in the context of biochemical recurrence (BCR). This may be regarded as a landmark in the management of prostate cancer, with the potential to markedly enhance the uptake of PSMA-PET diagnostics in the coming years.
The intention is to generate evidence-based data in everyday clinical practice with this so-called Real-World-Evidence (RWE) study. The planned study will facilitate a more detailed analysis of the diagnostic accuracy of Radelumin® in everyday clinical practice. This will involve dedicated examinations of certain subgroups and the prospective generation of a complete, high-quality database for future use of artificial intelligence (AI).
