About this study
Official title: Tracer-Based Image Guided Surgery for Recurrent Prostate Cancer: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
ADT with or without robot-assisted PSMA-radioguided surgery for patients with recurrent prostate cancer.
Read the detailed description
Improving the oncological treatment outcomes in men with a biochemical recurrence after primary prostate cancer (PC) treatment that are diagnosed with a disease recurrence confined to the regional lymph nodes or local residual disease using Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) Positron Emission Tomography and Computed Tomography (PET/CT.)
The proposed trial randomizes patients with recurrent PC following primary PC treatment to either 6 months of ADT or Technetium-PSMA-radioguided salvage surgery plus 6 months of ADT. Although the optimal duration of ADT is unknown, a minimal duration of 6 months of ADT seems advisable in this setting and will be mandatory for both arms.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
PSMA-radioguided surgeryProcedure or surgery
Approximately 15-24 hours prior to surgery, 400-600 Megabecquerel (MBq) of 99mTc-PSMA-I\&S will be intravenously administered to the patient at the Nuclear Medicine department. Following this injection patients will be allowed to return home, and then present for their 99mTechnetium (99mTc)-based PSMA-radioguided salvage surgery the next day.
ADTDrug
Standard 6 months of ADT according to current clinical guidelines. ADT consists of one subcutaneous depot of 22,5mg triptorelin (Pamorelin), with 4 weeks bicalutamide 50mg per os from 2 weeks before till 2 weeks after the first Pamorelin administration.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Arm A: ADT | Active comparator | Patients in arm A will receive standard 6 months of ADT according to current clinical guidelines. Receives: Drug: ADT |
| Arm B: ADT + PSMA radioguided surgery | Experimental | Patients in arm B will receive standard 6 months of ADT according to current clinical guidelines, and will undergo 99mTechnetium (99mTc)-based PSMA-radioguided salvage surgery. Receives: Procedure: PSMA-radioguided surgery; Drug: ADT |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Clinical progression-free survival (CPFS)
CPFS is defined as time between randomization and the appearance of a recurrence (any N1 or M1) as suggested by PSMA PET/CT or symptoms related to progressive PC, or death due to any cause
Measured: 24 months
Secondary outcomes (13)
Metastasis-free survival (MFS)
Metastasis-free survival will be defined as the time between randomization and the appearance of a metastatic recurrence (any M1) as suggested by PSMA PET-CT.
Measured: 24 months
Biochemical progression-free survival (BPFS)
Biochemical progression-free survival will be defined as the time between randomization and the development of biochemical progression ( three consecutive rises in prostate specific antigen (PSA) 1 week apart, resulting in two 50% increases over the nadir and PSA>2 ng/ml)
Measured: 24 months
Castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC)
CRPC is defined as castrate serum testosterone<50 ng/dl plus biochemical progression, i.e., three consecutive rises in PSA 1 week apart, resulting in two 50% increases over the nadir and PSA>2 ng/ml.
Measured: 10 years
Overall survival (OS)
Overall survival will be read as the time from trial randomization to the date of death from any cause
Measured: 10 years
Incidence of adjuvant therapy
ADT, radiation therapy or additional salvage surgery
Measured: 10 years
Patient reported QOL as per EORTC-QLQ C30
Quality of life (QoL) will be assessed with the EORTC Core Quality of Life questionnaire's (QLQ-C30) global QoL scale ranging from 0 to 100, higher scores indicate better QoL
Measured: 24 months
Patient reported QOL as per Expanded Prostate cancer Index Composite (EPIC) 26
Quality of life (QoL) will be assessed with the EPIC 26 questionnaire, containing 26 items covering 5 domains: Urinary Incontinence, Urinary Irritative/Obstructive, Bowel, Sexual, and Hormonal. Response options for each EPIC item form a Likert scale, and multi-item scale scores are transformed linearly to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores representing better QOL.
Measured: 24 months
Complications
Assessment of 99mTc-PSMA-I\&S injection-related as well as surgery-related complication rate according to Clavien-Dindo.
Measured: 30 and 90 days
Number of in-field recurrences
Recurrence measured by use of PSMA PET/CT in the template of 99mTc-PSMA-radioguided surgery (RGS) supported salvage surgery
Measured: 24 months
Specificity of 99mTc-PSMA RGS for salvage surgery for recurrent PC compared to histologic evaluation
In percentage
Measured: 30 days
Sensitivity of 99mTc-PSMA RGS for salvage surgery for recurrent PC compared to histologic evaluation
In percentage
Measured: 30 days
Positive Predictive Value of 99mTc-PSMA RGS for salvage surgery for recurrent PC compared to histologic evaluation
In percentage
Measured: 30 days
Negative Predictive Value of 99mTc-PSMA RGS for salvage surgery for recurrent PC compared to histologic evaluation

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing PSMA-radioguided surgery and ADT in people with Prostate Cancer, run by The Netherlands Cancer Institute at 1 site in Netherlands.
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 9 inclusion and 10 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 6 Oct 2023. 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 Netherlands. 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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 Pim van Leeuwen, MD, PhD (003125129111, pj.v.leeuwen@nki.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Clinical progression-free survival (CPFS) (time frame: 24 months). 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 6 Oct 2023.
