Trial summary

PSMA (Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen) is overexpressed in prostate cancer cells. The 68Ga-PSMA PET / CT test, using small molecules that bind to the PSMA protein and undergo intercellularization, is a test that has been shown to be more sensitive and specific than other conventional and molecular imaging… Read more about this study

About this study

PSMA (Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen) is overexpressed in prostate cancer cells.

The 68Ga-PSMA PET / CT test, using small molecules that bind to the PSMA protein and undergo intercellularization, is a test that has been shown to be more sensitive and specific than other conventional and molecular imaging modalities (CT, MRI, bone mapping, Disease in prostate cancer patients and its consequences often change therapeutic decisions in patients. In light of this, the examination of the health basket of the State of Israel was introduced to the staging of patients at moderate or high risk, as well as to the extent of the disease in patients with biochemical failure.

However, testing with 68Ga-PSMA has several limitations, resulting from the use of 68 Ga, which can be overcome by switching to fluorine-18 (18F) -based materials:

  1. The generation capacity of the generator is low and therefore limits the number of tests that can be performed at a given time. In contrast, 18F is produced in cyclotron.
  2. 68 Ga has a short half-life of 68 minutes, which is a logical consequence of its availability to remote medical centers from the place of production, the time of the test and the patient's comfort, and the possibility of subsequent mappings. The half-life of 18F is 110 minutes. third. 18F has less energy than 68Ga (0.65 MEV vs. 1.9) and, as a result, a better maximum resolution that would potentially enable the demonstration of smaller lymph nodes involved in the disease.

Among the fluorine-18 (18F) materials selected for clinical application is 18F-PSMA-1007, both because the uptake is higher in the tumor than in the background, and because its removal is mainly the pathobiliary and only a small fraction of the material is released in the urine. This is another advantage of 18F-PSMA-1007 over 68Ga-PSMA, potentially enabling a better demonstration of disease sites in the pelvis, without significant absorption of the bladder material.

To date, accumulated promising experience, in Germany, in imaging with 18F-PSMA-1007. In one published case, 17 degenerative disease sites were detected in one patient with biochemical failure 9 years after undergoing radical prostatectomy, which was not demonstrated by other imaging modalities, including CT, MRI and bone mapping

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing F18-PSMA in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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 12 Nov 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 Israel. 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?

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?

Patients who preformed 68Ga-PSMA-11 Biodistribution Standard to 18F-PSMA-1007 for prostate cancer. (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 12 Nov 2019.
