Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Positive Predictive Value (PPV) on a Per-patient Basis With Histologic Validation
PPVs were calculated across the group on a per-patient basis on 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy and reported along with the corresponding two-sided 95% confidence intervals (CI). The CIs were constructed using the Wilson score method.
Positive Predictive Value (PPV) on a Per-region Basis With Histologic Validation
PPVs were calculated across the group on a per-region-basis on 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy and reported along with the corresponding two-sided 95% CIs. The CIs were constructed using the Wilson score method.
Secondary Outcome Measures
PPVs on a Per-patient of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET With Conventional Imaging Follow-up
PPVs on a per-patient basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by conventional imaging follow-up were calculated and reported along with the corresponding two-sided 95% CI.
PPVs on a Per-region of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET With Conventional Imaging Follow-up
PPVs on a per-region-basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy and conventional imaging follow-up were calculated and reported along with the corresponding two-sided 95% CI.
Sensitivity on a Per-patient Basis
Sensitivity, on a per-patient basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy was calculated. The 95% CI was calculated using the Wilson score method.
Sensitivity on a Per-region Basis
Sensitivity, on a per-region basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy was calculated. The 95% CI was calculated using the Wilson score method.
Detection Rates of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET Stratified by Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) Value
Detection rate was defined as proportion of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET positive patients, independent of the reference standard stratified by PSA value (0.2-<0.5; 0.5-<1.0; 1.0-<2.0; 2.0-<5.0, and ≥5.0).
Inter-reader Agreement Per-region
Inter-reader reproducibility for positivity at region level was reported using the Fleiss' Kappa test for multiple readers. Kappa value varies from 0 (no agreement) to 1 (perfect agreement).
Percentage of Participants With Change in Clinical Management
Clinical management changes were assessed using surveys of Intended Management to determine the percent change in clinical management after 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET.
Safety Assessment - Heart Rate
Patient vital signs were measured before and after 68Ga-PSMA-11 injections and absolute mean change was calculated.
Safety Assessment - Blood Pressure
Patient vital signs were measured before and after 68Ga-PSMA-11 injections and absolute mean change was calculated.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The investigators are imaging patients with prostate cancer using a new PET imaging agent (Ga-68-PSMA-11) in order to evaluate it's ability to detection prostate cancer in patients with biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy and radiation therapy.
Detailed Description
Imaging and staging of prostate cancer is critical for surgical and treatment planning. Patients with suspected metastatic prostate cancer will be imaged using Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-11 in order to demonstrate its utility. The investigators plan to utilize this data to obtain further approvals of the Ga-68-PSMA-11 compound, so that this agent will become available for clinical imaging in prostate cancer patients. In the biochemical recurrence population, the primary objective is to determine the sensitivity and positive predictive value (PPV) on a per-patient and per-region-basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy.
