Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the detection rate of local relapse after radical prostatectomy with either PSMA or 64Cu-PET/CTs and whether the delineation of relapsed lesions using both methods can facilitate/change the therapeutic strategy of the radiation oncologist Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study Evaluating the Role of Both PSMA and 64Cu-PET/CT Total Body in Patients With Locally Relapsed Prostate Cancer

The purpose of this study is to assess the detection rate of local relapse after radical prostatectomy with either PSMA or 64Cu-PET/CTs and whether the delineation of relapsed lesions using both methods can facilitate/change the therapeutic strategy of the radiation oncologist

Read the detailed description

PET/TC is a diagnostic tool potentially able to detect, in a single session, both local and distant disease. However, the sensitivity of 18-F-PET/CT in the identification of relapse on the prostatic bed, varies greatly and depends on the value of PSA with which the examination is carried out, the size of the relapse in the lodge, the acquisition protocol and it is limited by the physiological hyperaccumulation of the tracer in the bladder. The sensitivity of 18F-Choline PET/TC in our hands is significantly higher than the one that is generally reported in the literature (76% with PSA values >1 ng/ml after radical prostatectomy), but still lower than the one of mpMR. PET/CT with 64Cu exceeds the limits of 18F-choline PET/TC in the study of the prostatic bed, as the tracer used (64Cu) is not excreted by urinary route and therefore does not accumulate in the bladder.

This study has the following objectives:

Primary objective: - To evaluate the detection rate of both 64Cu-PET/CT and PSMA-PET/CT of relapses in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy and subsequent biochemical recurrence;

Secondary objectives are:

  • to assess any change in radiation therapy strategy in terms of lesion delineation and dose distribution at planning.
  • to evaluate the performance of both methods (mpMR and PSMA/64Cu-PET/CT) in assessing the response to radiotherapy with or without androgen deprivation

What participants receive

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

  • Pilot evaluation study on use PSMA and Cu-PET/CTDevice

    This study aims at assessing the detection rate of both PSMA and Cu-PET/CT on tissue relapse, study whether this method is equivalent to mpMR

What is being measured

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

  1. To calculate the detection rate of PSMA and Cu-PET/CT of relapses in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy and subsequent biochemical recurrence

    Ratio between positive PSMA and Cu-PET/CT patients and the total of enrolled patients (positive MRI)

    Measured: 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pilot evaluation study on use PSMA and Cu-PET/CT in people with Prostate Neoplasms, run by Regina Elena Cancer Institute 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?

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 11 Jan 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 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

To calculate the detection rate of PSMA and Cu-PET/CT of relapses in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy and subsequent biochemical recurrence (time frame: 60 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04703543, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 11 Jan 2021.
