About this study

Several studies have shown that the PET/CT study with Choline is of great use in the restaging of patients with prostate cancer who present a recurrence of biochemical disease following primary treatment. Despite the large amount of literature in which the diagnostic accuracy of the method is highlighted in the identification of the recurrence of prostatic disease both in the case of local recurrence, lymph node recurrence and metastatic disease, there are to date no studies that evaluate whether PET /CT with choline may predict survival in patients radically treated for prostate cancer. The aim of the study is to evaluate the predictive role of choline PET/CT on the survival of patients with biochemical recovery of the disease during hormonal therapy.

This retrospective study will include adult patients affected by prostate cancer with biochemical recurrence of the disease following radical prostatectomy treatment and undergoing hormonal therapy who underwent, between 2004 and 2007, a PET/CT study with choline for the restaging of their disease.

The expected result is to establish how PET/CT with Choline can predict survival in patients who develop a biochemical recurrence of the disease during hormonal therapy. If this result is confirmed, PET/CT with Choline could be even more useful in the follow-up of patients radically treated for prostate cancer to plan the best therapeutic approach.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer, run by IRCCS San Raffaele.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 13 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

PET CT with choline on the survival of patients with biochemical recovery of prostate cancer (time frame: 1 year). 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 13 Dec 2023.
