- Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) PET on a patient level using histopathology or confirmatory imaging as a Standard of Truth (SoT). [ Time Frame: 90 days ]PPV (defined as true positive [TP]/{TP+false positive [FP]}) of rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) PET using histopathology or confirmatory imaging as a Standard of Truth (SoT).
- Inter-reader agreement of rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) scan interpretation by blinded independent readers. [ Time Frame: 90 days ]Kappa statistic for the agreement between blinded independent readers on the interpretation of rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) scans.
- Intra-reader agreement of rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) scan interpretation by blinded independent readers. [ Time Frame: 90 days ]Kappa statistic for the agreement within blinded independent readers on the interpretation of rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) scans.
- Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as classified by MedDRA [ Time Frame: 90 days ]Safety will be assessed from data on the occurrence of one or more treatment-emergent Adverse Events from the time of intravenous administration of 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 throughout the study period.
