Comparison of PSMA-based 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT to Conventional Imaging in the Evaluation of Patients With Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

May 5, 2020 updated by: Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins
We intend to validate 18F-DCFPyL for imaging patients with metastatic, castrate-resistant PCa (CRPC), so that it may be used to full advantage in supporting existing and emerging therapies for a spectrum of patients suffering from PCa. In this study we will image patients with CRPC undergoing second-line anti-androgen therapy (enzalutamide or abiraterone) using 18F-DCFPyL-PET/CT for detection of metastases and therapeutic monitoring, with correlation to standard-of-care conventional imaging modalities (CIM) (CT, bone scan) and clinical follow-up.

Study Overview

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 120 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Male

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population
