Brief Summary: This is a prospective imaging study evaluating the utility of baseline metabolic MR imaging with Hyperpolarized Pyruvate (HP) (13C) as a predictive response biomarker to androgen signaling inhibition in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Detailed Description: This is a prospective imaging study evaluating the utility of baseline metabolic MR imaging as a predictive response biomarker to androgen signaling inhibition in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. Patients with a target lesion that is amenable for metabolic MR imaging will be eligible for study participation. Patients will undergo baseline metabolic MR imaging with Hyperpolarized Pyruvate C-13 pyruvate followed by initiation of androgen signaling inhibition (either as standard of care or as part of clinical trial; including abiraterone and/or enzalutamide treatment). Patient will subsequently undergo repeat metabolic MR scan after 28 days (+/- 7 days) of therapy. For those without primarily refractory disease, a third metabolic MR scan will be completed at the time of radiographic disease progression by The Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 2 (PCWG2) criteria. MR- or CT-guided tumor biopsies are optional at baseline and at the time of disease progression.
