About this study

Official title: A Feasibility Study to Evaluate 18F-choline Cerenkov Luminescence Imaging for Measuring Margin Status in Radical Prostatectomy Specimens

This study will evaluate the feasibility of using intra-operative Cerenkov Luminescence Imaging (CLI) of prostatectomy specimens to determine tumour margin status. The samples will be imaged using the LightPathTM Imaging System which consists of a light-tight box containing an ultra-sensitive lens and radiation-shielded camera. This study will measure the correlation between margin status of the WLE specimen and the metastatic status of dissected lymph nodes as determined by the LightPathTM Imaging System and by histopathology. This is a pilot study to assess feasibility before proceeding to a pivotal study to evaluate the benefits of the LightPathTM system in clinical practice.

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective, single-centre feasibility study to evaluate the use of intra-operative Cerenkov Luminescence Imaging (CLI) of prostatectomy specimens to determine margin status.

Subjects will receive an intravenous injection of 370 Mega Becquerel (MBq) of 18F-choline prior to routine, elective radical prostatectomy. The surgery will be performed according to standard-of-care. The resected prostatectomy specimens will be imaged using the LightPathTM Imaging System, consisting of a light-tight box containing an ultra-sensitive lens and Electron Multiplying Charged-Coupled Device (EMCCD) camera.

This study will measure the agreement between margin status of the prostatectomy specimen as determined by CLI and by histopathology (reference method). This study will assess feasibility before proceeding to a pivotal study to evaluate the benefits of the LightPathTM Imaging System in clinical practice.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT02151097
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
High risk prostate cancerMen ≥18 years of age diagnosed with high risk prostate cancer, defined as clinical stage ≥T2c, or Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)>20 ng/ml, or Gleason Score 8-10, scheduled to have radical prostatectomy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Margin status of prostatectomy specimen as determined by the LightPathTM Imaging System

    Use of the LightPathTM Imaging System will be examined in order to assess the feasibility of using CLI for determining margin status intraoperatively.

    Measured: Intra-operative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The agreement between margin status as determined by CLI and histopathology

    Tumour margin status of prostatectomy specimens as determined by CLI and routine histopathology analysis will be compared in order to assess the performance of the LightPathTM Imaging System for determining margin status intraoperatively.

    Measured: Intra and immediate post-operative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostatic Neoplasms, run by Lightpoint Medical Limited 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?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 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 23 Jun 2016. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Margin status of prostatectomy specimen as determined by the LightPathTM Imaging System (time frame: Intra-operative). 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 23 Jun 2016.
