Purpose: The purpose of this pilot prospective study is to examine the gallium-68-prostate-specific membrane antigen-11 ([68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging response in patients with advanced or metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer (PC) after 3 months of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Methods: We prospectively included men with untreated, clinical stage III or IV PC scheduled to receive ADT for at least 6 months. [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT images were obtained before the start of ADT and 10–14 weeks thereafter. The following indices were examined: maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), mean SUV, PSMA total volume, and PSMA total lesion values of the prostate, nodes, bones, and whole-body. The therapeutic response was assessed using the modified PET response criteria in solid tumors 1.0. A subgroup analysis of patients with the International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grade group 5 versus &lt;5 was also performed. Results: A total of 30 patients were eligible. All PSMA PET/CT indices were significantly reduced (p &lt; 0.001) after 3 months of ADT. Twenty-four (80%) patients showed partial response. Complete response, stable disease, and disease progression were observed in two patients each. Sixteen patients with ISUP grade group 5 showed a less prominent SUVmax reduction (p = 0.006), and none of them reached complete response. Conclusions: Three months of ADT in patients with untreated, advanced PC significantly reduced PSMA PET/CT indices. While most participants partially responded to ADT, patients with ISUP grade group 5 showed a less prominent SUVmax reduction. Collectively, our pilot results indicate that [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT imaging holds promise to monitor treatment response after the first three months of ADT.
