Assessing Response to [Lu]PSMA Radioligand Therapy using modified PSMA PET Progression Criteria.

Positron emission tomography/computer tomography (PET/CT) targeting the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) plays a key role in staging of patients with prostate cancer (PCa). Moreover, it is not only used for the assessment of adequate PSMA expression of PCa cells before PSMA-targeting radioligand therapy (PSMA RLT) but also for re-staging during the course of therapy to evaluate response to treatment. Whereas no established criteria exist for systematic response evaluation so far, recently proposed PSMA PET Progression (PPP) criteria might fill this gap.
