About this study

This is a diagnostic accuracy prospective, single-centre, open-label, single group assignment interventional study.

Its aim is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in detection of primary tumour and extra prostatic disease (lymph node, soft tissues spread or bone metastases) in men newly diagnosed with Prostate Cancer at Intermediate and High Risk, according to 2019 Prostate Cancer EAU Guidelines Risk Group Stratification (see Study Population paragraph).

The investigators are interested in the possible future role of [68Ga]Ga-labelled PSMA PET/CT as integration to conventional imaging mpMRI (with or without CT of the lower abdomen and Bone scan) in the detection of primary tumor and extra-prostatic disease (lymph node and soft tissues spread or bone metastases).

Read the detailed description

This is a diagnostic accuracy prospective, single-centre, open-label, single group assignment interventional study.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in detection of primary tumor and extraprostatic disease (lymph node, soft tissues spread or bone metastases) in men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer at intermediate or high-risk.

The secondary objective of this study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT to the diagnostic accuracy of conventional imaging mpMRI (with or without CT of the lower abdomen and Bone scan) in the prostatic bed and extra prostatic disease in men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer at intermediate or high-risk.

To evaluate association between [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT uptake value (SUVmax and SUVmean) and aggressiveness of prostate tumor (e.g. PSA serum level and Gleason Score).

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic accuracy measures (sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values) of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in detection of primary tumor and extraprostatic disease (lymph node, soft tissues spread or bone metastases).

    For the primary objective, the following index test and reference test will be considered:

    Index test: [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT performed before treatment. Reference test: clinical, radiological and histo-pathologic assessment, when available, at 12 months followup and up to 24 months after treatment.

    Two nuclear medicine physicians will review the PET images using PET/CT Software Syngo.via.

    A PET positive finding for pelvic or retroperitoneal lymph nodes or lymph nodes ≥ 8mm is defined with PSMA uptake equal to or above blood pool and lower than liver.

    A PET positive finding in lymph nodes of other regions is defined with PSMA uptake equal to or above liver and lower than parotid gland. Any uptake equal to or above parotid gland will be considered positive.

    The readers will be blinded to clinical and pathologic data, except for the knowledge of diagnosis of biopsy proven prostate cancer.

    Measured: Up to 24 months after treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Comparation diagnostic accuracy of the [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT versus the conventional imaging mpMRI (with or without CT of the lower abdomen and Bone scan) in the prostatic bed and extra prostatic disease.

    For the secondary objective, the following index test and reference test will be considered:

    Index test: conventional imaging mpMRI performed before treatment. Reference test: clinical, radiological and histo-pathologic assessment at 12 months follow-up and up to 24 months after treatment.

    MRI imaging results will be evaluated by two radiologists specializing in body MRI imaging with the PI-RADS version 2 criteria.

    In addition, for the secondary objective, after testing the assumption of normality with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the metabolic PET parameters (SUV max and SUV mean) will be correlated with PSA serum level, by using the Pearson correlation, and with Gleason score and tumor volume, by using the Spearman correlation.

    Measured: Up to 24 months after treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in people with Prostate Cancer and Prostatic Neoplasm, run by Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Modena at 1 site in Italy.

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 17 Sep 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 Italy. 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 Pietro Ghedini, MD (0594225167, ghedini.pietro@aou.mo.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diagnostic accuracy measures (sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values) of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in detection of primary tumor and extraprostatic disease (lymph node, soft tissues spread or bone metastases). (time frame: Up to 24 months after treatment). 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 17 Sep 2020.
