Wolfgang P. Fendler
A German nuclear medicine doctor at Essen who helped design a scoring system, RECIP, for reading follow-up PSMA scans in prostate cancer patients on lutetium therapy, and who co-writes the field's international imaging guidelines.
Overview
Wolfgang Fendler is vice chair (deputy director, under Ken Herrmann) and head of translational oncology at the University Hospital Essen's Department of Nuclear Medicine, and a member of the German Cancer Consortium (DKTK). He is first or senior author on a series of studies validating Response Evaluation Criteria in PSMA-PET/CT (RECIP 1.0), a framework for reading follow-up PSMA PET scans in men on 177Lu-PSMA radioligand therapy, and co-authored the EANM/SNMMI joint procedure guidelines for both PSMA PET/CT and 177Lu-PSMA radioligand therapy.
His research also covers real-world outcomes of extended and rechallenge 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and he received the EAU Prostate Cancer Research Award in 2021 for his work relating PSMA-ligand PET findings to clinical outcomes in non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
