In the clinical scenario of recurrent prostate cancer (PCa) post local therapy, current standard studies (bone scan and computed tomography) commonly fail to identify the recurrent disease location. In this study the investigator aims to prospectively map recurrent disease with the unique combination of whole-body MR anatomical imaging combined with a new high-sensitivity and PCa-specific PET probe (PSMA-targeted: \[18F\]DCFPyL) to provide precise localization information to target disseminated tumor deposits in men presenting with rising PSA after prostatectomy and radiotherapy (maximal local therapies). Moreover, we will consequently treat all identified disease with image-guided stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR), which has shown tantalizing results achieving excellent tumor eradication rates with minimal toxicities. This study is uniquely positioned to enable the discovery of new biomarkers and the correlation of prognostic tests (e.g. genomic signatures) from the initial prostatectomy specimen with the PET-MR/CT imaging results and curative-intent treatment outcomes. The significance of the proposed work towards a measurable impact in PCa care is important to emphasize. The study team believes this novel curative-intent approach will transform lives, as opposed to therapies that transiently impact incurable disease stages. Herein, the focus is on patients at the earliest point of the disease spectrum of recurrent PCa after curative-intent treatments. Our hypothesis is that PSMA-targeted \[18F\]DCFPyL PET-MR/CT allows earlier detection and localization of defined metastatic targets in these patients, at a stage amenable to image-guided curative-intent therapy.

PET/MRI imaging using the radiotracer, \[18F\]DCFPyL
SABR as treatment for lesions identified using \[18F\]DCFPyL PET/MRI
Princess Margaret Cancer Centre
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
To determine if [18F]DCFPyL PET-MR/CT can identify early oligometastatic disease in patients with a rising PSA and negative staging (CS and BS) after standard-of-care maximal local therapies.
Endpoint: Detection rates and performance metrics of \[18F\]DCFPyL PET-MR/CT in the post-prostatectomy plus adjuvant/salvage RT setting.
Time frame: 3 years
To determine if treating PET-MR/CT identified lesions with curative-intent treatment (e.g. stereotactic body radiation therapy or surgery) associated with favorable preliminary measures of clinical performance.
* Proportion of patients achieving biochemical response: detectable PSA (\<0.05ng/mL) in 2 consecutive measurements (at least 2 weeks apart) within 6 months of treatment); or \> 50% PSA decline in 2 separate measurements at least 1 month apart within 6 months of treatment * Metabolic \[18F\]DCFPyL response rate after treatment * Treatment-related toxicities incidence as defined by CTCAE v4.0 * Time to initiation of salvage ADT after treatment
Time frame: 3 Years
Correlation between PSA kinetics and PET imaging parameters
To explore the correlation between PSA kinetics and PET imaging parameters (SUV, dynamic data, volumetric studies)
Time frame: 6 months post SABR
Correlate between tissue biomarker and distant disease
To explore the correlation between tissue biomarkers from prostatectomy specimen (e.g. genomic signatures) and \[18F\]DCFPyL PET/MR-detected distant disease
Time frame: 3 years
