abstract = {The present study analyzed the impact of Gallium-68
(68Ga)-labeled prostate-specific membrane antigen-HBED-CC
(68Ga-PSMA-11) positron-emission tomography (PET)/computed
tomography (CT) on radiotherapeutic management in a large
cohort of men with primary or recurrent disease. Methods:
This study investigated 121 men with carcinoma of the
prostate who underwent 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT as well as
conventional imaging. 50 patients were treatment naive, 11
had persistent prostate-specific antigen (PSA) soon after
surgery and 60 presented with recurrent PSA following
definitive therapy. Changes in TNM classification of
malignant tumors (TNM) stage and radiotherapeutic management
after 68Ga-PSMA-11 imaging were compared to results achieved
with conventional imaging. Results: In total, a change in
TNM stage and radiotherapeutic management was observed for
49 patients $(40.5\%)$ and 62 patients $(51.2\%),$
respectively. In treatment naïve patients, a change in TNM
stage and radiotheraeutic plan occurred in $26.0\%$ and
$44.0\%$ of the cohort respectively. For patients with PSA
persistence or recurrence, TNM and radiotherapeutic
management changed in $50.7\%$ and $56.3\%$ respectively.
Conclusion:68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT may shortly become an
indispensable tool for detecting prostate cancer lesions in
treatment-naïve patients as well as in men with recurrent
disease or persistent PSA and seems to be very helpful in
personalizing radiotherapeutic management to the individual
patients' distribution of disease.},
