Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The estimated rate of recruitment to the study 6-7 patients a month, thus it is expected that patient accrual will be completed within 7 months. Based on recent treatment patterns, the expected distribution of treatments is: * Hormonal treatments * Enzalutamide: 14 patients * Abiraterone: 8 patients * Chemotherapy * Docetaxel: 11 patients * Cabazitaxel: 5 patients * Radiopharmaceutical drug - Radium-223: 2 patients

Who may be able to join

  • Histological diagnosis of castration-resistant prostate cancer,
  • Single or multiple bone metastases,
  • Life expectancy of over 6 months,
  • No current active malignancy other than prostate cancer,
  • Provision of written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Absolute contraindication to WB-MRI, CT or BS,
  • Radical treatment of sole site of metastatic disease (e.g. Cyberknife to solitary metastatic lesion),
  • Psychological, familial, sociological or geographical conditions that would hamper compliance with the study protocol; such conditions are to be discussed with the patient as part of the informed consent process.

About this study

Official title: Response Evaluation of Cancer Therapeutics in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) to the Bone: A Whole Body MRI Study

This study is aimed to compare whole body MRI (WB-MRI) with Bone Scintigraphy (BS) and Computerized Tomography (CT) scans in patients receiving treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer to the bone.

This is a monocentric, prospective observational study.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational study and will not influence the choice of treatment. The treating clinicians will be able to use any clinical treatment regimen that is considered appropriated for the patient. This may include hormonal therapy or chemotherapy or therapy with radium-223. In addition, patients may be treated with bisphosphonates/denosumab, and granulocity-colony stimulating factor. The duration of therapy, doses, schedules, timing, premedication, patient monitoring during treatment, dose adjustments, and duration of therapy are entirely at the discretion of the treating clinician.

The use of radiotherapy is permitted, but the details including fields used must be communicated to the reporting radiologist to ensure this does not affect the interpretation of imaging. All other supportive or palliative treatments are permitted.

All patients will undergo imaging assessments as follows:

  • At baseline, CT, BS (99mTc-MDP) and Whole Body-Magnetic Resonance Imaging (WB-MRI) will be performed.
  • Follow-up imaging will be CT, BS and WB-MRI performed every 12 weeks until week 96, and then every 24 weeks until disease progression occurs or week 192.

Additional patient assessments to be performed include:

  • questionnaires at baseline, week 36 and end of study to evaluate patient perception, acceptance and preferences regarding the imaging modalities.
  • clinical and physical examinations according to routine clinical practice. The radiologist reporting the WB-MRI will be blinded to the results of the CT and BS.

The radiologist reporting the CT and the nuclear medicine physician reporting the BS will likewise be blinded to the results of the WB-MRI.

Neither treating clinicians nor patients will be blinded at any point.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to disease progression in bone metastasis identify by WB-MRI

    the proportion of WB-MRI examinations that identify disease progression in bone metastases prior to CT + BS

    Measured: 192 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer, run by European Institute of Oncology 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?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 3 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 20 Mar 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 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 Giuseppe Petralia, MD (+39 02 9437 2901, giuseppe.petralia@ieo.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to disease progression in bone metastasis identify by WB-MRI (time frame: 192 weeks). 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 20 Mar 2024.
