About this study

Official title: A Cancer Research UK Phase II Trial to Compare [11C]Choline and [18F]Choline Each Given as a Single Administration Via Intravenous Injection for Imaging Patients With Metastatic Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) imaging, may help find and diagnose metastatic prostate cancer.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of C-11 choline and 18F-fluoromethylcholine and to see how well they work when used in PET and CT imaging in patients with metastatic prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To compare C-11 choline to 18F-fluoromethylcholine using positron emission tomography and computed tomography imaging in their ability to detect metastatic prostate cancer.
  • To compare the best early-phase (immediate) scanning of the two agents against the late-phase (one-hour delayed) 18F-fluoromethylcholine scanning in their ability to detect metastatic prostate cancer.
  • To assess the safety of C-11 choline and 18F-fluoromethylcholine in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive C-11 choline IV followed by a 10-minute dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) scan over the pelvis and then 5-minute scans at each bed position, from the pelvis to the base of the skull, (up to a maximum of 7 additional bed positions) lasting up to 45 minutes on day 1. Beginning 3 hours later, patients receive 18F-fluoromethylcholine IV followed by the same scanning protocol above lasting approximately 45 minutes. An additional 1-hour delayed PET-computed tomography (CT) scanning is then performed, which involves a 5-minute scan at each bed position from the pelvis to the base of the skull (up to a maximum of 7 bed positions) with 18F-fluoromethylcholine, lasting approximately 35 minutes. Patients then undergo treatment as per the normal standard of care following participation in this trial.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed between 3-7 days.

What participants receive

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

  • C-11 cholineDietary supplement

  • 18F-fluoromethylcholineRadiation

What is being measured

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

  1. Identification of a true 5% difference in lesion detection using 18F-fluoromethylcholine versus C-11 choline

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Identification of a true 5% difference in lesion detection between the best early-phase scanning, using either the 18F-fluoromethylcholine and C-11 choline, and late-phase scanning using 18F-fluoromethylcholine

  2. Causality of each adverse event to C-11 choline and 18F-fluoromethylcholine and adverse event severity according to NCI CTCAE version 4.0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing C-11 choline and 18F-fluoromethylcholine in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Cancer Research UK at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2012. 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 Kingdom. 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 phase mean?

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Identification of a true 5% difference in lesion detection using 18F-fluoromethylcholine versus C-11 choline. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 28 Feb 2012.
