Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - True positive fraction (TPF) and false positive fraction (FPF) of identified tumour tissue in soft tissue, analysed separately for prostate gland and pelvic lymph nodes, after localization of tumor tissue on the PET/CT scan, using histopathology as standard of truth.; time frame: up to day 42 - Frequency of occurrence and severity of abnormal findings in safety investigations (physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead ECG, pulse oximetry, clinical laboratory, adverse events, concomitant medication).; time frame: Day 0 - Day 7 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - Number of identified bone lesions, per patient.; time frame: Day 1 - Correlation coefficient of recovery-corrected SUV (standardized uptake value) values plotted against Gleason score in primaries after RP; time frame: Day 1 - Percentage of subjects for whom the RP and EPLND will not be conducted; time frame: Day 1 - Quantity of circulating tumour cells in blood; time frame: Day 1 | — |
