Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to gain understanding of how PET-MR (positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging) using the substance 18F-DCFPyL (PyL) may help in diagnosing prostate cancer and in determining the stage of prostate cancer before surgery.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: 18F-DCFPyL Drug: 18F-DCFPyL
To determine whether PET/MR utilizing PYL improves pre-operative staging of prostate cancer prior to radical prostatectomy compared to MRI alone.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. PET/MR versus mp-MRI for the Staging of Newly Diagnosed Prostate Cancer [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    To determine if PSMA-Targeted PET/MRI improves pre-operative staging of prostate cancer prior to radical prostatectomy compared to MRI alone.

  • Patients must have a diagnosis of high risk, very high risk, or locally advanced prostate cancer per NCCN Guidelines (T3-T4 disease)
  • Patients are healthy enough to be deemed surgical candidates with an ECOG performance status of 0-2

  • Patients who are claustrophobic will be required to take an anti-anxiety medication prescribed by their physician one hour prior to the scan
  • Patients may not be receiving any other treatments or investigational agents
  • Patients with a GFR <30mL/min are ineligible to receive intravenous contrast per standard MR exclusion criteria
  • Patients not interested in pursuing surgical intervention for their disease (i.e. refusing treatment or requesting radiation oncology referral)
  • Patients who have received androgen deprivation therapy or prior surgery for prostate cancer
  • Patients who report taking multivitamins and/or folate supplements on the day of the scan
