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 18 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • A subject will be eligible for project participation if he meets all of the following criteria:
  • Is either 1) a newly diagnosed prostate cancer patient in clinical suspicion of bone metastases or 2) a previously diagnosed prostate cancer patient in clinical suspicion of progression in the form of bone metastases. The subject must have been referred to the standard diagnostic imaging (18F-NaF-PET-CT) at our institution for bone metastases.
  • The prostate cancer diagnosis must be biopsy-proven
  • The subject is willing and able to comply with the protocol as judged by the investigator

Who cannot join

  • A subject will be excluded from the protocol if he meets one or more of the following criteria:
  • Has prior malignancy, except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer
  • Has pacemaker or implanted devices (eg. cardiac valves, neurostimulator or insulin pump) that cannot be removed, metal clips/metal prostheses from surgery that are not MRI compatible or metallic foreign bodies in the eye (MRI exclusion criteria)
  • Has any condition that places the subject at an unacceptable risk if he undergoes a diagnostic CT-scan (e.g. history of severe allergic reaction to the contrast agent).
  • Has severe obesity (>195 kg is the weight limit for the scanner table)
  • Has severe claustrophobia

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study Comparing the Diagnostic Accuracy of Bone SPECT-CT, Choline-PET-CT, PSMA-PET-CT, NaF-PET-CT and WB-MRI in the Detection of Prostate Cancer Bone Metastases

An improved diagnosis of bone metastases in prostate cancer patients can have a significant impact on treatment strategy and probably survival as well.

The primary purpose of the project is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of bone SPECT-CT, choline-PET-CT, PSMA-PET-CT, NaF-PET-CT and Whole-body MRI in the diagnosis of bone metastases in prostate cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

The project is a prospective diagnostic test accuracy study. The project takes place at Herlev Hospital and is a collaboration between the Department of Radiology and the Department of Clinical Physiology and Nuclear Medicine.

The investigators want to include 300 prostate cancer patients referred to our standard diagnostic imaging (NaF-PET-CT scan) by the clinicians.

In addition to the standard diagnostic imaging (NaF-PET-CT-scan), two project will be performed on all participants. The project has three arms with the following scanning combinations:

  1. Whole-body MRI + SPECT-CT B) Whole-body MRI + Cholin-PET-CT C) Whole-body MRI + PSMA-PET-CT The recruitment of project participants takes place on the day when the patients are undergoing a NaF-PET-CT scan in the course of regular clinical practice at our institution.

All readers are experienced radiologists or specialists in nuclear medicine. Patient identification on each scan will be anonymized and the reader will not have access to clinical and biochemical information or previous imaging studies.

Being tested
WB-MRI, SPECT-CT, Cholin-PET-CT, PSMA-PET-CT

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing WB-MRI, SPECT-CT and Cholin-PET-CT in people with Prostate Cancer Metastatic to Bone, run by Herlev Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 May 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 Denmark. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Eva Dyrberg Mortensen, MD (+45 38681002, eva.dyrberg@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diagnostic accuracy (time frame: The two project scans will be performed within a maximum of 30 days from the performance of the NaF-PET-CT scan). 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 5 May 2017.
