Brief Summary: This phase II trial studies how well a positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scan using fluciclovine F18 compared with a PET/CT scan with 68Ga-PSMA works in planning radiation treatments and enhancing outcomes in patients with prostate adenocarcinoma. Fluciclovine F18 and 68Ga-PSMA are types of tracers, called radiotracers, that are injected and can accumulate in tumor cells to develop images of them during a PET/CT scan. It is not yet known whether giving fluciclovine F18 or 68Ga-PSMA may work better in planning radiation treatments and enhancing outcomes in patients with prostate adenocarcinoma.
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES I. Improve the outcomes of post-prostatectomy radiotherapy prostate cancer patients via selection and treatment optimization with advanced molecular imaging with dose escalation. II. Establish the role of advanced molecular imaging with fluciclovine F18 (fluciclovine \[18F\]) and gallium Ga68-labeled prostate specific membrane antigen PSMA-11 (68Ga-PSMA) PET/CT in influencing post-prostatectomy radiotherapy decision-making. III. Establish the role of advanced molecular imaging with fluciclovine 18F or 68Ga-PSMA in altering radiotherapy treatment volumes. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms. ARM I: Patients receive fluciclovine F18 intravenously (IV) and undergo a PET/CT over approximately 30 minutes. ARM II: Patients receive 68Ga-PSMA IV, wait 60 minutes, then undergo a PET/CT over approximately 30 minutes. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for up to 5 years.
