Trial summary

Despite surgical advances, up to 50% of patients with high-risk locally advanced prostate cancer will die from their disease. Drug therapy before surgery has the potential to improve treatment success by lowering tumor volume in the prostate and treating small metastases. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: 177Lu-PSMA-I&T Radionuclide Neo-Adjuvant Treatment in Patients With Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer Prior to Radical Prostatectomy: Feasibility Trial.

Despite surgical advances, up to 50% of patients with high-risk locally advanced prostate cancer will die from their disease. Drug therapy before surgery has the potential to improve treatment success by lowering tumor volume in the prostate and treating small metastases. PET PSMA is an advanced imaging technique that allows the identification of areas involved by the tumor in the prostate or in the pelvis. This technique is based on the protein PSMA (prostate-specific membrane antigen) which is located on the tumor cells. The presence of PSMA on tumor cells has been recently used for treatment purposes. A chemical element (Lutetium) that binds to PSMA and emits local radiation can destroy tumors cells. This treatment has been used in patients with advanced metastatic disease and showed promising results. The investigators hypothesized that using these particles can improve long term results in patients who undergo surgery for prostate cancer which has not extensively spread. The investigators will assess both the immediate and long-term impact of this novel treatment.

What participants receive

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

  • 177Lu-PSMA-I&T RadionuclideRadiation

    Each patient will receive two single doses of 7.4 GBq 177-Lu-PSMA-I\&T treatments. The treatments will be given intravenously, 2 weeks apart starting 12 weeks prior to radical prostatectomy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Surgical safety

    Surgical safety will be assessed according to the rate of intra- and post operative complications graded according to the clavien dindo classification.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Early oncological outcomes

    Early oncological outcomes will be assessed according to the final surgical histology (e.g. stage , grade) and postoperative PSA

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 177Lu-PSMA-I&T Radionuclide in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Rabin 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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Mar 2020. 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?

Contact Shay Golan (+7239376554, Shaygo1@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Surgical safety (time frame: 2 years). 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 5 Mar 2020.
