Who may be able to join

  • Provision of written informed consent.
  • Men, over 18 years of age, with histologically-confirmed diagnosis of prostate cancer

  • Patient will be undergoing a therapeutic intervention under the supervision of his treating physician (urologist, oncologist).

Who cannot join

  • Other co-existing malignancies or malignancies diagnosed within the last 5 years with the exception of basal cell carcinoma or superficial transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder.
  • Serious underlying medical conditions that would otherwise impair the patient's ability to undergo imaging.
  • Patient weighs over 350 lbs (due to scanner weight limit).
  • Clinical life expectancy < 12 weeks.
  • Participated in other radioactive drug studies where estimated total cumulative dose within 1 year is > 0.05 Sievert for whole body, active blood-forming organs, eye lens, gonads, or 0.15 Sievert for other organs.
  • Concurrent Therapy. Allowed: prior hormonal therapy; concurrent leuteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist; prior surgery; prior or concurrent bisphosphonate. Not allowed: concurrent anti-androgen or secondary hormonal therapy, prior or concurrent chemotherapy, concurrent radiotherapy or radioisotope therapy (e.g., strontium). Other: Prior radiotherapy or radioisotope therapy must be > 12 weeks since last treatment.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • IV administration of fluorine-18 fluorocholine followed by PET/CT imagingDrug

    Imaging intervention performed prior to and 30-75 days post a change in anti-androgen therapy.

Study groups in NCT00928174
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Single ArmExperimentalFluorine-18 fluorocholine IV in conjunction with PET/CT imaging, up to 3 doses.
Receives: Drug: IV administration of fluorine-18 fluorocholine followed by PET/CT imaging

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Outcome Correspondence to Imaging Results With Fluorine-18 Fluorocholine PET/CT

    The percentage of patients within a given prostate specific antigen range found to have at least one abnormal lesion demonstrating increased fluorine-18 fluorocholine uptake on positron emission tomography (PET) imaging consistent with the clinical diagnosis of metastatic or recurrent prostate cancer.

    Measured: Concurrent with PET Procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing IV administration of fluorine-18 fluorocholine followed by PET/CT imaging in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Queen's Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Nov 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Nov 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Outcome Correspondence to Imaging Results With Fluorine-18 Fluorocholine PET/CT (time frame: Concurrent with PET Procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00928174, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Nov 2015.
