Purpose and Audience
Provide urologists, surgeons, medical oncologists,
radiation oncologists and other prostate cancer
specialists with the following information to aid in the
diagnosis and management of prostate cancer patients
 A summary of PET radiopharmaceuticals that are FDAapproved to image prostate cancer
 NCCN Practice Guidelines updates for using PET/CT in
prostate cancer
 Recent Report from the National
Oncologic
PET Registry (NOPR)
 Impact on patient management
PET/CT in Prostate Cancer
PET/CT plays an important role in the evaluation of
prostate cancer on many levels
 Detecting metastatic disease
 Restaging
 Biochemical relapse post-radical therapy
 A biochemical relapse is one where, after completing treatment
(e.g., prostatectomy), PSA begins rising again but the cancer
cannot (yet) be detected by CT or MRI
 Treatment monitoring
 Use for primary staging generally limited to only high-risk
disease

FDA-Approved PET Radiopharmaceuticals
for Prostate Cancer
 Tracers that image metabolism
 C-11 choline and F-18 fluciclovine
 Used to localize disease recurrence in men who have
rising PSA and inconclusive conventional imaging
 F-18 FDG
 Used typically in patients with late-stage recurrent prostate
cancer and elevated PSA
 Tracers that image bone
 F-18 NaF (sodium fluoride)
 Used to detect bone metastases
PET/CT in Prostate Cancer:
NCCN Guidelines
 C-11 choline: Radioactive diagnostic agent for PET imaging of
patients with suspected prostate cancer recurrence and noninformative bone scintigraphy, CT or MRI. In these patients, C-11
choline-PET/CT imaging may help identify potential sites of prostate
cancer recurrence for subsequent histologic confirmation
 F-18 NaF: Newer technology using F-18 NaF for PET scanning can
be used as a diagnostic staging study; appears to have greater
sensitivity than Tc-99m bone scan for assessing bone metastasis
 F-18 FDG: In certain clinical settings, the use of F-18 FDG may
provide useful information; F-18 FDG-PET/CT should not be used
routinely since data on its utility in prostate cancer is limited
 F-18 fluciclovine: Indicated for PET imaging with suspected
prostate cancer recurrence based on elevated blood PSA levels
following prior treatment. (NOTE: FDA approved fluciclovine May 2016; it is
not yet included in the NCCN guidelines.)

Cancer Guidelines: Overview for
Prostate Cancer Evaluation
The NCCN guidelines have specific recommendations when using PET/CT
imaging in prostate cancer: (1) primary disease, (2) biochemical recurrence and
(3) advanced disease. Below is a sample of information taken from these
guidelines. Please consult the NCCN website for their complete set of
guidelines.

PET/CT in Prostate Cancer:
Benefits of C-11 Choline Imaging
 CMS may reimburse the use of C-11 choline-PET/CT in
biochemical failure (i.e., relapse of prostate cancer with
inconclusive bone scan, CT and/or MRI)
 Contact your local MAC for your area’s coverage decision
 Established tracer to identify progression to support
more appropriate treatment options
 Shows soft tissue and osseous metastatic disease
 Availability varies due to half-life of 20 minutes

F-18 NaF and NOPR
 The National Oncologic PET Registry (NOPR) is a
mechanism for CMS Coverage
 A registry for F-18 NaF-PET to identify bone metastasis
similar to that now in place for F-18 FDG-PET
 Launched February 7, 2011
 >30,000 scans with complete data submitted to date

Important Safety Information





Image interpretation errors can occur with PET imaging. A negative image
does not rule out recurrent prostate cancer and a positive image does not
confirm its presence. Clinical correlation, which may include
histopathological evaluation, is recommended.
The performance of F-18 fluciclovine and C-11 choline seem to be affected
by PSA levels. For F-18 fluciclovine, uptake may occur with other cancers
and benign prostatic hypertrophy in primary prostate cancer.
Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, may occur in patients who
receive PET radiopharmaceuticals. Emergency resuscitation equipment and
personnel should be immediately available.
PET/CT imaging contributes to a patient’s overall long-term cumulative
radiation exposure, which is associated with an increased risk of cancer.
Safe handling practices should be used to minimize radiation exposure to
the patient and healthcare providers.
Adverse reactions, although uncommon, may occur when using PET
radiopharmaceuticals. Always refer to the package insert prior to use.
