Lantheus Holdings to Showcase the Potential of PyL™ Imaging Agent at the Virtual Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) 2020 Annual Meeting
The abstracts to be presented at the meeting will feature data on PyL from two presentations based on Company-sponsored studies, including the positive results from the Phase 3 CONDOR trial evaluating the diagnostic performance and clinical impact of PyL in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer. A third abstract focuses on the digital solution the Company is developing in parallel with PyL to potentially support prostate cancer staging using an automated miPSMA Index of the PET/CT PyL-PSMA images.
“Physicians and patients continue to experience an unmet need for diagnostic imaging that could assist in staging high risk prostate cancer and reliably detect recurrent or metastatic disease. The unmet need is particularly important among patients with low PSA values,” said

About PyL™ for PET Imaging of Prostate Cancer
PyL (also known as 18F-DCFPyL) is a fluorinated PSMA-targeted positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agent that enables visualization of both bone and soft tissue metastases to determine the presence or absence of recurrent and/or metastatic prostate cancer.
