Additional Inclusion Criteria Applicable to Cohort 2 (pre-RP Cohort) Only 11. Clinically assessed as scheduled to undergo radical prostatectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection (including patients with localized disease, regional lymph node metastases, or oligometastatic prostate cancer), with no contraindications to surgery. 12. Participants must meet one of the following risk categories: unfavorable intermediate-risk, high-risk, or very high-risk prostate cancer, as defined according to the NCCN Guidelines (Version 2026, Version 5; PROS-2): 1.

High-risk prostate cancer, defined as meeting at least one high-risk feature but not meeting criteria for very high-risk disease, including: * Clinical stage cT3a; or * GG 4 or 5; or * PSA \>20 ng/mL. 3. Very high-risk prostate cancer, defined as meeting at least two of the following criteria: * Clinical stage cT3b-cT4; * GG 4 or 5; * PSA \>40 ng/mL. Exclusion Criteria: Phase I Participants meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded from the study: 1. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to the active component(s) of \[⁶⁴Cu\]Cu-RAX301 Injection or any of its excipients. 2. Inability to complete \[⁶⁴Cu\]Cu-RAX301 Injection PET/CT imaging as required by the protocol. 3. Participation in another interventional clinical trial prior to signing the informed consent form, within 5 half-lives of the investigational product, or current participation in another interventional clinical trial; or prior participation in a radiopharmaceutical clinical trial with a washout period of less than 3 months prior to signing informed consent. 4. Receipt of any intravenous iodinated contrast agent within 24 hours prior to administration of the investigational product, or receipt of any high-density oral contrast agent (e.g., barium sulfate) within 5 days prior to dosing. Oral water-soluble contrast agents (e.g., compound diatrizoate meglumine oral solution) are permitted. 5. Prior treatment with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) or any other neoadjuvant therapy. 6. Receipt of high-energy gamma radiation (\>300 keV) prior to dosing, within 5 half-lives of the investigational product. 7.
