About this study

Official title: 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin PET/MRI in the Evaluation of Patients With Prostate Cancer: A Feasibility Study

This clinical trial studies the use of gallium-68 (68Ga)-DOTA-Bombesin as the imaging agent for positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), collectively PET-MRI, in patients with prostate cancer. PET uses a radioactive substance called 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin, which attaches to tumor cells with specific receptors on their surfaces. The PET scanner takes pictures that capture where the radioactive drug is "lighting up" and attaching to tumor cells, which may help doctors recognize differences between tumor and healthy prostate tissue. MRI uses radio waves and a magnet to make a picture of areas inside the body. Using 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin in diagnostic procedures, such as PET/MRI, may allow doctors to identify smaller tumors than standard imaging.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the feasibility and biodistribution of 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin (BAY 86-7548 or 68Ga-DOTA RM2).

OUTLINE:

Patients receive 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin intravenously (IV) and then undergo PET/MRI approximately 1 hour later.

After completion of study, patients are followed up at 24 hours and 1 week.

Being tested
68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan
Medical subject headings
Prostatic Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • 68Ga-DOTA-BombesinDrug

    Also called 68Ga-DOTA RM2, BAY 86-7548, Gallium-68-labeled GRPr Antagonist

    68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin is a gallium-68-labeled gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPr) antagonist. DOTA is [4,7,10-Tris-(carboxymethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododec-1-yl]-acetyl.

    68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin is administered intravenously (IV)

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanProcedure or surgery

    Also called Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) scan

  • Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanProcedure or surgery

    Also called Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging

What is being measured

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

  1. Normal Biodistribution of 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin

    Radiopharmaceutical uptake in normal organs will be evaluated visually and measured semi-quantitatively using standardized uptake values (SUV) derived from the PET/CT scan software in patients with prostate cancer. Uptake values in different tissues will be measured as SUVmean (mean value for SUV). SUVmean values reflect relative uptake of the radiolabel into the tissue.

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin Feasibility

    Feasibility of 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin as a radiopharmaceutical for PET/MRI was assessed as the percentage of enrolled subjects who complete the examination, and for which the PET/MRI data were evaluable.

    Measured: Up to 1 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan in people with Prostate Carcinoma, run by Stanford University 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 Apr 2017. 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 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 11 Apr 2017). 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?

Normal Biodistribution of 68Ga-DOTA-Bombesin (time frame: 1 hour). 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 NCT02440308, 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 Apr 2017.
