Abstract:
Recent developments in prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeted diagnostic imaging and therapeutics (theranostics) promise to advance the management of primary, biochemically recurrent, and metastatic prostate cancer. In order to maximize the clinical impact of PSMA-targeted theranostics, a coordinated approach between the clinical stakeholders involved in prostate cancer management is required. Here, we present a vision for multidisciplinary use of PSMA theranostics from the viewpoints of nuclear radiology, medical oncology, urology, and radiation oncology. We review the currently available and forthcoming PSMA-based imaging and therapeutics and examine current and potential impacts on prostate cancer management from early localized disease to advanced treatment-refractory disease. Finally, we highlight the clinical and research opportunities related to PSMA-targeted theranostics and describe the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration in this space.
