About this study

The investigators are imaging patients with prostate cancer using a new PET imaging agent (Ga-68-PSMA-11) in order to evaluate it's ability to detection prostate cancer in patients with biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy and radiation therapy.

Read the detailed description

Imaging and staging of prostate cancer is critical for surgical and treatment planning. Patients with suspected metastatic prostate cancer will be imaged using Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-11 in order to demonstrate its utility. The investigators plan to utilize this data to obtain further approvals of the Ga-68-PSMA-11 compound, so that this agent will become available for clinical imaging in prostate cancer patients. In the biochemical recurrence population, the primary objective is to determine the sensitivity and positive predictive value (PPV) on a per-patient and per-region-basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy.

What participants receive

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

  • Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11 PETDrug

    Also called Ga-68 labeled DKFZ-PSMA-11, Ga-68 labeled Glu-NH-CO-NH- Lys(Ahx)-HBED-CC, Ga-68 labeled Glu-urea- Lys(Ahx)-HBED-CC, Ga-68 labeled HBED-CC PSMA

    Patients will be imaged using Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11 PET to determine if the presence of metastatic disease. Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) is a protein expressed on prostate cancer cells that can be imaged using small molecules that target this protocol.

What is being measured

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

  1. Positive Predictive Value (PPV) on a Per-patient Basis With Histologic Validation

    PPVs were calculated across the group on a per-patient basis on 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy and reported along with the corresponding two-sided 95% confidence intervals (CI). The CIs were constructed using the Wilson score method.

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Positive Predictive Value (PPV) on a Per-region Basis With Histologic Validation

    PPVs were calculated across the group on a per-region-basis on 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy and reported along with the corresponding two-sided 95% CIs. The CIs were constructed using the Wilson score method.

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. PPVs on a Per-patient of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET With Conventional Imaging Follow-up

    PPVs on a per-patient basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by conventional imaging follow-up were calculated and reported along with the corresponding two-sided 95% CI.

    Measured: 1 month

  2. PPVs on a Per-region of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET With Conventional Imaging Follow-up

    PPVs on a per-region-basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy and conventional imaging follow-up were calculated and reported along with the corresponding two-sided 95% CI.

    Measured: 1 month

  3. Sensitivity on a Per-patient Basis

    Sensitivity, on a per-patient basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy was calculated. The 95% CI was calculated using the Wilson score method.

    Measured: 1 month

  4. Sensitivity on a Per-region Basis

    Sensitivity, on a per-region basis of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy was calculated. The 95% CI was calculated using the Wilson score method.

    Measured: 1 month

  5. Detection Rates of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET Stratified by Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) Value

    Detection rate was defined as proportion of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET positive patients, independent of the reference standard stratified by PSA value (0.2-<0.5; 0.5-<1.0; 1.0-<2.0; 2.0-<5.0, and ≥5.0).

    Measured: 1 month

  6. Inter-reader Agreement Per-region

    Inter-reader reproducibility for positivity at region level was reported using the Fleiss' Kappa test for multiple readers. Kappa value varies from 0 (no agreement) to 1 (perfect agreement).

    Measured: 1 month

  7. Percentage of Participants With Change in Clinical Management

    Clinical management changes were assessed using surveys of Intended Management to determine the percent change in clinical management after 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  8. Safety Assessment - Heart Rate

    Patient vital signs were measured before and after 68Ga-PSMA-11 injections and absolute mean change was calculated.

    Measured: 1 day

  9. Safety Assessment - Blood Pressure

    Patient vital signs were measured before and after 68Ga-PSMA-11 injections and absolute mean change was calculated.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11 PET in people with Prostate Cancer, run by University of California, San Francisco 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 10 inclusion and 4 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 2 Dec 2019. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 2 Dec 2019). 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?

Positive Predictive Value (PPV) on a Per-patient Basis With Histologic Validation (time frame: 1 month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Dec 2019.
