PRINCETON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cytogen Corporation (NASDAQ: CYTO) today reported that the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) has included PROSTASCINT® (capromab pendetide) in its updated clinical practice guidelines for recurrent prostate cancer. PROSTASCINT is the first and only commercial monoclonal antibody-based agent that targets prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) to image the extent and spread of prostate cancer. Expanded inclusion in the NCCN’s guidelines further reinforces the value of PROSTASCINT for evaluation of prostate cancer in patients suspected of having locally recurrent disease.
