About this study

The general objective of this retrospective and prospective study is to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic role of a quantitative analysis of PET images with 18F-PSMA in all stages of the disease in patients with prostate cancer. To this end, both imaging parameters commonly used in clinical practice and the contribution of radiomic features will be investigated. The latter are quantitative features extracted from biomedical images, and are believed to be able to provide information, otherwise impossible to investigate, useful for the characterization of various pathologies. This methodology is very promising, but also recent and therefore little studied and standardized. Our objective is also to investigate how to optimize it from a purely methodological point of view.

Read the detailed description

In this study, all PET images with 18F-PSMA will be considered, but also the CT or MR images associated with them to allow better anatomical localization.

This study will allow us to investigate the diagnostic and prognostic role of l8F-PSMA PET, also evaluating its predictive value in terms of disease course, development of metastases and mortality. The retrospective part of this protocol is necessary for the acquisition of a sufficiently large amount of data to guarantee adequate statistical power for the study.

What participants receive

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

  • PET 18F-PSMADiagnostic test

    Subjects will be subjected to a PET examination according to international guidelines and where requested by the specialist. In particular, patients will be administered the radiopharmaceutical 18 F PSMA. Approximately two hours after administration, the patient is positioned on the PET/CT equipment table and image acquisition begins.

What is being measured

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

  1. PET with 18F-PSMA for diagnostic accuracy for staging of prostate cancer.

    the role of a quantitative-semi-quantitative analysis for the characterization of prostatic pathology in different phases of the disease.

    Measured: 5 years

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 2 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Dec 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Arturo Chiti (0226432716, chiti.arturo@hsr.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PET with 18F-PSMA for diagnostic accuracy for staging of prostate cancer. (time frame: 5 years). 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 12 Dec 2023.
