About this study

The investigators are imaging patients with prostate cancer using a new Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging agent (Ga-68-PSMA-11) in order to evaluate its ability to detect prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be imaged using Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11 PET to determine if there is 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. PET imaging will begin 50-100 minutes after injection, but may be possible in certain circumstances for imaging to be delayed due to patient workflow or equipment issues

Primary Objective:

Sensitivity on a per-patient and per-region-basis (Table 1) of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy, clinical and conventional imaging follow-up.

Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Being tested
Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11, Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT), Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI)
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11Drug

    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 there is 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.

  • Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT)Device

    Also called PET-CT

    Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) is a nuclear medicine technique which combines, in a single gantry, a positron emission tomography (PET) scanner and an x-ray computed tomography (CT) scanner, to acquire sequential images from both devices in the same session

  • Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI)Device

    Also called PET-MRI

    A PET/MRI scan is a two-in-one test that combines images from a positron emission tomography (PET) scan and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan in a single session

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11 PET PSMAExperimentalThe imaging agent (Ga-68 PSMA-11 or PSMA-HBED-CC) will be administered on an outpatient basis. It will be administered a single time intravenously prior to the PET imaging. The injected dose will be 3 to 7 millicurie (mCi) +/- 10% of 68Ga-PSMA-11.
Receives: Drug: Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11; Device: Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT); Device: Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI)

What is being measured

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

  1. Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease by Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Group

    Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease in Prostate Bed by PSA Group

    Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer located in the prostate bed and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease in Pelvic Nodes by PSA Group

    Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer located in the pelvic nodes and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease in Distant Soft Tissues by PSA Group

    Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer located in the distant soft tissues and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease in Bones (Osseous Lesions) by PSA Group

    Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer located in the bone (osseous lesions) and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11, Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) and Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Thomas Hope 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 6 inclusion and 1 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 24 Aug 2021. 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 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 24 Aug 2021). 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?

Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease by Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Group (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 5 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 24 Aug 2021.
