| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Evaluate a new diagnostic and innovative approach for the staging of prostate cancer with the use of the recently introduced PET/MR imaging method and new tracers (68Ga-PSMA and 68Ga-Bombesina).;Secondary Objective: - Optimize the image acquisition and analysis protocol of the innovative PET/MR methodology in order to offer an optimal approach. - Characterize the phenotype of the prostatic primary tumor using: 1) hybrid PET/MR imaging with 68Ga-PSMA and 68Ga-Bombesin tracers, 2) multiparametric MRI (mp-MR) techniques; and 3) integrated radiomal analysis with clinical, histopathological and cellular markers of tumor aggression based on peripheral blood particle counts and biochemical, clinical and instrumental follow-up. - Evaluate the stability / reproducibility of the radiomic analysis on mp-MR data for the characterization of the tumor by a testretest procedure. - Define the diagnostic accuracy of PET/MR with 68Ga-PSMA and 68Ga-Bombesina and with state-of-the-art mp-MR staging techniques (T, N and M). - Evaluate the impact of PET/MR with 68Ga-PSMA and 68Ga-Bombesina in the choice of therapeutic strategies and clinical management of the patient.;Primary end point(s): Evaluation of the staging of patients with prostate cancer using PET / MR hybrid imaging with innovative radiopharmaceuticals (68Ga-PSMA and 68Ga-Bombesina) and tumor biomarkers.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 60 months | — |
