About this study

Primary objective:

  • To determine if 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging is effective at diagnosing prostate cancers and/or metastases compared to conventional imaging [including CT, MRI, 99mTc-MDP Bone Scans as available].

Secondary Objective:

  • To determine safety by evaluating for adverse events
  • To determine which conventional imaging is being performed when 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging is available
Read the detailed description

Prostate Cancer is the most frequent cancer in men worldwide and accounts for the second leading cause of cancer-related death in men in the United States. Local tumor invasion into neighboring organs such as the seminal vesicle and bladder with distant metastasis to pelvic lymph nodes and bones are frequent. Determining if tumor spread is local or distant influences therapy decisions. Conventional imaging with CT, MRI and bone scans have been used for staging and diagnosis; however, assessment of metastasis particularly lymph node and bone metastasis has remained unsatisfactory. New imaging approaches, which accurately assess disease, are needed to achieve optimal treatment and improve patient outcomes .

In general, PSMA PET imaging appears to have a diagnostic benefit in patients with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer based on elevated serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels and negative conventional imaging such as CT and 99mTc-MDP bone scan. It also appears that PSMA PET may perform better over conventional imaging in the initial staging of patients with high-risk prostate cancer. Comparisons between PSMA PET and conventional imaging have been favorable; however, most of these studies have looked at radiopharmaceuticals 18F-DCFPyL or 68Ga-PSMA-11. Studies performed to date have shown that 18F-PSMA-1007 is like other PSMA radiopharmaceuticals in detecting tumor sites. One systematic review demonstrated 18F-PSMA-1007 changed management in 20% of patients at staging. The expectation is that 18F-PSMA-1007 may also eventually replace conventional imaging in the staging and biochemical recurrence work up as other PSMA PET agents. However, larger prospective studies are needed to strengthen its role.

18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging is changing the management of prostate cancer and may eventually replace conventional imaging in staging and work up for biochemical recurrence. The purpose of this study is to determine if it can replace current conventional imaging (such as CT, MRI, 99mTc-MDP Bone Scans) in clinical practice. The study will also provide patients in Southern Alberta access to this exam that will help with their patient care management.

'• Prospective Phase 3 trial

  • Each patient will receive an IV injection 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT. Imaging will be conducted beginning 90-120 minutes after an injection of 4 MBq/kg (max 400 MBq +/- 15%) 18F-PSMA-1007 in patients.
  • After the 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT acquisition is complete, a CT scan will be performed for attenuation correction and localization in the same in line gantry without patient movement between the two scans.
  • The results of the 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT will be compared to any prior imaging and pathologic results.

  • 18F-1007 PSMA PSMA PET/CTDiagnostic test

    Each patient will receive an IV injection 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT.

    PET/CT Imaging will be conducted beginning 90-120 minutes after an injection of 4 MBq/kg (max 400 MBq +/- 15%) 18F-PSMA-1007 in patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging to CT/MRI/Bone scans in identifying prostate cancer and/or metastases

    calculate sensitivity and specificity 18F-PSMA 1007 PET/CT compared to CT, MRI and bone scans using pathology and follow up as gold standard.

    Measured: 5 year study, approximately 200 patients/ year.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To determine safety by evaluating for adverse events

    evaluate patient reported side effects during and after injection of 18F-PSMA 1007 while in the department

    Measured: 5 year study, approximately 200 patients/ year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer, run by Alberta Health services.

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 8 inclusion and 4 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2024. 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?

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 Denise Chan (403-944-1252, denise.chan@albertahealthservices.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging to CT/MRI/Bone scans in identifying prostate cancer and/or metastases (time frame: 5 year study, approximately 200 patients/ 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 8 Jul 2024.
