About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a radioactive diagnostic study drug, which is called Gallium-68 Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen ([Ga-68]PSMA) for detection of bone metastasis in patients with prostate cancer.

For imaging the investigators will use a FDA approved imaging technology, digital Positron Emission Tomography (PET/CT). The investigators would like to know if digital PET/CT using [Ga-68]PSMA provides accurate information about the extent of bone metastases.

Therefore, the investigators will compare[Ga-68]PSMA PET/CT with Flourine-18 [F-18] Sodium Fluoride (NaF), which is a high resolution bone scan. [F-18]NaF is FDA approved and the reference standard for evaluating the presence of bone metastases.[Ga-68]PSMA is an investigational (experimental) drug that works by binding to Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen, which is overexpressed in prostate cancer. [Ga-68]PSMA is experimental because it is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) at University Hospitals. However, FDA approval has been obtained for this study protocol by an Investigational New Drug (IND) application.

What participants receive

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

  • [68Ga]PSMADrug

    Patients will receive up to 6 mCi of [Ga-68]PSMA delivered as an intravenous (IV) bolus injection, followed by digital PET/CT imaging

  • Flourine-18 [F-18] Sodium Fluoride (NaF)Drug

    Patients will receive 8-12 mCi of [F-18]NaF delivered as an intravenous (IV) bolus injection, followed by digital PET/CT imaging.

  • PET/CTDiagnostic test

    Patients will receive [68Ga]PSMA with a PET/CT and Flourine-18 [F-18] Sodium Fluoride (NaF) with a PET/CT

What is being measured

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

  1. Uptake of [Ga-68]PSMA as measured by lesion by lesion analysis

    Classified using a 5-point score with one being definitely metastatic and five being definitely benign

    Measured: Up to 90 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Focally increased [Ga-68]PSMA uptake as measured by PET/CT

    Measured: Up to 90 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer, run by University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 May 2024. 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 United States. 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?

Uptake of [Ga-68]PSMA as measured by lesion by lesion analysis (time frame: Up to 90 minutes). 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 16 May 2024.
