Trial summary

18F-PSMA-1007 is a new radiopharmaceutical for the detection of prostate cancer with potential benefits over the registered 18F-Fluciclovine (Axumin). The main potential benefit is the higher detection rate of PSMA compared to Fluciclovin in the low PSA range. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: F18-PSMA-1007 PET for Early Biochemical Recurrence of Prostate Cancer, Comparison With 18F-Fluciclovine

18F-PSMA-1007 is a new radiopharmaceutical for the detection of prostate cancer with potential benefits over the registered 18F-Fluciclovine (Axumin). The main potential benefit is the higher detection rate of PSMA compared to Fluciclovin in the low PSA range. It may therefore be more sensitive in detecting local disease in case of biochemical recurrens. The investigators aim to compare the detection efficacy of 18F-PSMA-1007 to 18F-Fluciclovin in prostate cancer patients with biochemical recurrence (PSA levels 0.2-5 ng/ml).

Read the detailed description

Rationale: 18F-PSMA-1007 is a new radiopharmaceutical for detection of prostate cancer with potential benefits over 18F-Fluciclovine, such as higher detection rates at low PSA levels and small lesions, lower bone marrow uptake and higher tumour-background ratio. Therefore, 18F-PSMA-1007 PET may be more sensitive in detecting local recurrence and metastases of prostate cancer. However, Fluciclovine is a registered tracer, whereas PSMA-1007 is not registered, and therefore there is pressure to use fluciclovine instead of PSMA-1007. Therefore more comparative data are urgently needed.

Objective: Main objective is to compare detection efficacy of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET-CT to 18F-Fluciclovine, in patients with early biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.

Study design: Comparative phase II diagnostic study Study population: 50 males >18 years, with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer and PSA-levels between 0.2-5.0 ng/mL. About 25 of the patients must have PSA-levels between 0.2-1.0 ng/mL. Contra-indications: claustrophobia, inability to lay still for the duration of the exam. Already established local recurrence in the prostate is not a contra-indication for study participation.

Intervention: 50 patients who already were referred by their treating physician for PET/CT will receive both an 18F-PSMA-1007 PET-CT (90 minutes post injection) and an 18F-Fluciclovine PET-CT (<15 minutes post injection). Injected dose of the 18F-PSMA-1007 will be 4 MBq/kg ±10%. The injected dose of 18F-Fluciclovine is 370 MBq ±10%.

Analysis: A clinical report is made of both the 18F-PSMA-1007 PET-CT scan and 18F-Fluciclovine PET-CT scan. For further analysis in the study all data will be anonymized, and will be blindly scored by two nuclear medicine physicians. The number of PET-positive lesions (judged to be prostate cancer, of course PET positive lesions referring to different processes like inflammation will not be taken intob account, this is oart of the PET-reading process) per area are separately scored for both tracers. Lesions will be scored on a 5-point scale ranging from most probably benign to most probably malignant. Follow-up data of the patients, to determine the eventual outcome, will be extracted from their medical file. An expert panel will eventually decide which lesions are considered to be metastases using all available follow-up data.

What is being measured

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

  1. Detection efficacy of the two PET-tracers on a per patient level

    Comparisson of number of patients with a positive scan

    Measured: Follow-up duration is 6 months.

  2. Detection efficacy of the two PET-tracers on a per lesion level

    Comparisson of number of positive lesions

    Measured: Follow-up duration is 6 months.

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Quantitative analysis

    tumour background ratio, SUV (of tumor and normal organs)

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Comparing specificity

    where the reference is consensus by the expert panel using all available information including 6 months follow up data (PSA-values; absolute and doublind time, pathology reports of suspected prostate cancer lesions, prostate-cancer targeted imaging by PET CT, MRI, CT or bone scan).

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Sensitivity per area, local recurrence

    local recurrence, where the reference test is consensus by the expert panel using 6 months available clinical follow-up data.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Sensitivity per area, locoregional lymph nodes

    locoregional lymph nodes, where the reference test is consensus by the expert panel using 6 months available clinical follow-up data.

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Sensitivity per area, distant lymph nodes

    Distant lymph nodes, where the reference test is consensus by the expert panel using 6 months available clinical follow-up data.

    Measured: 6 months

  6. Sensitivity per area, bone metastases

    Bone metastases, where the reference test is consensus by the expert panel using 6 months available clinical follow-up data.

    Measured: 6 months

  7. Sensitivity per area, extraskeletal organ metastases, where the reference test is consensus by the expert panel using 6 months available clinical follow-up data.

    Extraskeletal organ metastases

    Measured: 6 months
