Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to test the ability of a new PET scan radiotracer, called FDHT (stands for [18F] Dihydro-Testosterone), to better find and monitor prostate cancer. Radiotracers are a type of drug that carries small amounts of radioactivity that can be seen by the PET scanner. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 21 to 79 years
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male aged 21 years or older and below 80 years of age.
  • Signed written informed consent and willingness to comply with protocol requirements.
  • Histologically confirmed diagnosis of prostate cancer.
  • Staging imaging workup including a baseline MRI of the prostate and pelvis performed at MSKCC.
  • Baseline imaging to rule out distant metastatic disease (99mTc bone scan, NaF PET, total body MRI, or CT chest/abdomen/pelvis)
  • Karnofsky performance status ≥ 70
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Clinical criteria required to be eligible:
  • One of the following i.Pre-treatment PSA ≥10 ng/dL, OR ii. Clinical T-stage assessed by digital rectal exam of ≥T2a, OR ii . Radiographic ≥T3a on MRI, OR iv. Gleason score of ≥3+4=7 c. Visible intraprostatic tumor foci ≥1 cm in largest dimension on T2-weighted images based on initial pre-treatment MRI
  • Physician recommendation of ADT.

Who cannot join

  • Metastatic disease on standard staging imaging (beyond regional lymph node involvement).
  • o Absence of metastatic disease (beyond regional lymph node involvement) as defined by a negative bone scan, NaF PET, CT chest/abdomen/pelvis, or total body MRI.
  • Prior treatment of the prostate gland for malignant conditions (surgery, cryotherapy, radiotherapy, or photodynamic therapy).
  • Physician prescription of androgen receptor antagonist therapy (examples: bicalutamide, flutamide, or enzalutamide) during time of protocol scans.
  • o Note: ADT consists of chemical castration (i.e. degarelix) to remove endogenous DHT. Androgen receptor antagonists will bind to the androgen receptor and inhibit FDHT from binding.
  • Patients receiving testosterone supplementation .
Show all 15Show fewer
  • Any contraindication to baseline MRI based on departmental MR questionnaire, or inability to cooperate for an MRI scan.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to FDHT.
  • Hepatic laboratory values:
  • Bilirubin >1.5 x ULN (institutional upper limits of normal)
  • AST/ALT >2.5 x ULN
  • Albumin <2 g/dL
  • Creatinine >2.5 mg/dL
  • Calcium >11 mg/dL
  • Other serious illness(es) which might preclude completion of this study or interfere with determination of causality of any adverse effects experienced in this study.

About this study

Official title: Phase I Trial Of [18F] Dihydro-testosterone Pet and MR Imaging In Patients With Localized Prostate Cancer

The purpose of this study is to test the ability of a new PET scan radiotracer, called FDHT (stands for [18F] Dihydro-Testosterone), to better find and monitor prostate cancer. Radiotracers are a type of drug that carries small amounts of radioactivity that can be seen by the PET scanner. FDHT is a radiotracer that looks for a protein which is present in almost all prostate cancer cells. The investigators want to find out if we can find and monitor changes in cancer using a FDHT PET scan.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
[18F] DIHYDRO-TESTOSTERONE PETExperimentalThe diagnostic intervention of this study is the use of FDHT PET in localized prostate cancer. Patients will undergo a 30 minute dynamic scan of the pelvis followed by a whole body scan of approximately 30-minutes duration. The dynamic scan will be optional, but strongly encouraged. PET scanning will preferably be done on the GE Discovery STE PET/CT scanner or the equivalent generation of scanner. The PET scans are routinely "quantitative," that is corrected for attenuation and scatter and adjusted for system sensitivity and providing parametric images in terms of standardized uptake values (SUV) (= μCi found/gm tissue / μCi injected/gm body mass).
Receives: Drug: [18F] DIHYDRO-TESTOSTERONE; Device: PET scan; Device: MRI; Other: Blood draw

What is being measured

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

  1. increase in standardize uptake values (SUV) between the second and third FDHT scans

    Enrolling 15 patients will provide 80% power to detect a 33% increase in the mean uptake (from 6 to 8) between the 2nd and the 3rd scans.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. correlate AR expression to FDHT uptake

    involves collecting formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue from pre-treatment biopsy specimens to correlate androgen receptor (AR) expression to FDHT uptake. AR expression will be measured using RNA-seq and correlated with FDHT SUV values separately for each scan using Spearman's rank correlation.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing [18F] DIHYDRO-TESTOSTERONE, PET scan and MRI in people with Prostate Cancer and Localized Prostate Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer 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 9 inclusion and 15 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 6 Aug 2018. 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 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.

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 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?

increase in standardize uptake values (SUV) between the second and third FDHT scans (time frame: 1 year). 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 6 Aug 2018.
