BACKGROUND

Since their clinical introduction in 2011, PSMA-PET/CT (PSMA: prostate-specific membrane antigen) as well as PSMA therapy of prostate cancer (PC) have spread rapidly worldwide.

OBJECTIVES

To summarize the current knowledge about both PSMA-PET/CT and PSMA therapy of PC.

METHODS

The knowledge derived from the literature as well as the authors' experiences were collected in this review.

RESULTS

PSMA-PET/CT demonstrates a very high sensitivity and specificity for the detection of recurrent PC as well as for the primary staging of intermediate- and high-risk PC. PSMA therapy shows promising results in third-line treatment for patients with castration-resistant, metastatic PC.

CONCLUSIONS

PSMA-PET/CT is meanwhile established as the gold standard for the detection of recurrent PC and is in the process of assuming the same role for primary staging of intermediate- to high-risk PC. PSMA therapy serves as a promising third-line therapy in an increasing number of centers.
