This is a multi-center, open-label, single arm Phase III clinical trial for the diagnostic efficacy assessment and safety evaluation by \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging examination to determine the presence of recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer in patients whose recurrent or metastatic lesions have been confirmed through the conventional imaging.
In this study, the diagnostic efficacy of \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging at detecting recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer will be evaluated according to the histopathology truth standard in prostate cancer patients whose recurrent or metastatic lesions have been confirmed with the conventional imaging. Patients who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria of the clinical study protocol will be enrolled, who then will undergo a biopsy or pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) for one or more lesion locations confirmed with the conventional imaging within 28 days from \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT scanning. After the biopsy or PLND, follow-up will be carried out for 2 weeks. However, if necessary, based on the judgment of the principal investigator, additional visits may be made. 1. Baseline Procedures At the baseline visit, the conventional imaging will be performed. The results of whole-body bone scan and gadolinium-enhanced MRI (for the chest, abdomen or pelvis) within 6 weeks prior to \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT scanning will be collected. All conventional imaging examinations will be evaluated by the study site. At the time of whole-body bone scanning, examinations will be performed 2 hours after the contrast agent 99mTc-HDP 20 to 30 mCi is administered intravenously. At the time of gadolinium-enhanced MRI scanning (for the chest, abdomen or pelvis), the gadolinium contrast agent (Gadobrix 1 cc/kg) will be administered intravenously. 2. Biopsy and PLND Images collected through the conventional imaging during the baseline visit can be selectively used for images to guide a biopsy, and images to decide on biopsy sites will be read by the study site. If more than one legions are identified through the image reading, an intermediary radiology specialist will choose a lesion for which to perform a biopsy; however, among the lesions identified, the one determined to be safe for the subject in the investigator's judgment will be preferred as a site on which to perform a biopsy or PLND, and the final biopsy site will be decided after checking its justification through consultation with the intermediary Department of Radiology. A biopsy can be performed while hospitalized, if necessary. Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) is surgery to remove the lymph nodes from the pelvis, which is part of a radical prostatectomy, so it is typically performed with hospitalization. 3. Florastamin PET imaging (PSMA-PET Imaging) Uptake values of \[18F\]Florastamin in the region of interest (ROI) of Florastamin PET imaging are evaluated by an independent evaluator. The independent evaluator records all uptake values observed in the lesion, and analyzes uptake values in the lesion where the biopsy has been performed during analysis of efficacy evaluation. 4. Biopsy and Histopathology Tissues removed through a biopsy or PLND are delivered to the Department of Pathology in accordance with the guidelines of the study site and slides by biopsy or PLND site are produced. A pathologist at the study site performs histopathological evaluation of the slides produced with blinded to results of \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT examinations. An area on which a biopsy or PLND has been performed and histopathological results thereof are collected in the eCRF. 5. Histopathology truth standard Tissues removed with a standard method in more than one lesion locations confirmed by the conventional imaging performed prior to \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT scanning are evaluated in terms of whether there is prostate cancer, there are any other tumors, it is impossible to read, etc. In addition, the positive/negative result of \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging in the applicable location is evaluated by an independent evaluator.

A single dose of \[F-18\]Florastamin at 10 ± 1 mCi is intravenously administered only to the subjects who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria, and then \[F-18\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging is performed from the head to thigh after 105 ± 15 minutes (care should be taken to prevent extravasation of the radiopharmaceutical product).

The positive predictive values(PPV) Evaluation of [18F]Florastamine PET/CT
The positive predictive values (PPV) of \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging for the detection of recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer in subjects are evaluated. The PPV is calculated by TP/(TP+FP) x 100% for patients with positive \[ 18F\]Florastamin PET/CT. True positive is defined as being determined to be positive for prostate cancer according to histopathological results of tissues removed from \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT and a biopsy or PLND. False positive is defined as being determined negative for prostate cancer according to the histopathological results of tissues removed through a biopsy or PLND, but determined positive for prostate cancer by \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT.
Time frame: [18F]Florastamin PET/CT conducts at V2(1 Day/Efficacy & Safety evaluation). Biopy or PLND conducts V3(1Day ~ 28Day/Efficacy & Safety evaluation).
Detection rates of [18F]Florastamin PET/CT imaging
Detection rates of \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging in the lesion location (prostate, bones, lymph nodes (inside and outside the pelvis), soft tissues, etc.) are evaluated. Detection rates of \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging are defined as the percentage of subjects who have tested positive according to the \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging results in any random lesion location such as prostate, bones, lymph nodes (inside and outside the pelvis), and soft tissues.
Time frame: [18F]Florastamin PET/CT conducts at V2(1 Day/Efficacy & Safety evaluation). Biopy or PLND conducts V3(1Day ~ 28Day/Efficacy & Safety evaluation).
The sensitivity of [18F]Florastamin PET/CT imaging
The sensitivity of \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT imaging for the detection of recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer in subjects is evaluated. The sensitivity is calculated by TP/(TP+FN) x 100% for patients with positive \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT. True positive is defined as being determined to be positive for prostate cancer according to \[ 18F\]Florastamin PET/CT and histopathological results. False positive is defined as being determined negative for prostate cancer according to the histopathological results but determined positive for prostate cancer by \[18F\]Florastamin PET/CT.
