Molecular PET/MR Imaging in Vivo Validation of Biomarker for Human Prostate Cancer (PCAPETMR)

August 6, 2019 updated by: Gigin Lin, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

Primary objective:

To correlate the blood/urine metabolomic biomarkers with PET/MR imaging.

Secondary objectives:

  1. To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the PET/MR in diagnosis of prostate cancer.
  2. To examine the diagnostic performance among subgroups of defined high-risk and low-risk subjects.
  3. To interrogate the metabolomic alterations with the molecular PET/MR to develop workable panel biomarkers.

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.

Detailed Description

According to 2015 National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guideline, medical imaging plays important roles for detection and staging for PCa, in addition to blood or urine biomarkers. Although there are a number of very different diagnostic imaging methods, e.g. transrectal ultrasound (TRUS), computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and spectroscopy, or 18F-FDG positron emission tomography (PET), none of these have gained a dominant role as the optimum method for all clinical scenarios.The recently added armamentarium, PET/MR, might improve diagnosis in this regard.

Therefore, we conduct this trial to identify the ability of [11C]Choline PET/MR to evaluate the patients with prostate cancer, especially under the circumstance of elevated PSA level.

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

40 years to 85 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Male

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients in a tertiary referral center.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Males
  • 40-85 years of age
  • Patients with a biopsy-proven or clinically highly suspected prostate adenocarcinoma, or benign prostatic hyperplasia
  • Able to tolerate [11C]Choline PET scan and MRI scan
  • Written informed consent from the patient

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Acute prostatitis or non-urologic bacterial infection requiring medical treatment within the last 3 months.
  • History of AIDS in the period prior to the screening.3

  • Contraindications to [11C]Choline PET/MR scans

    1. Surgical implants including pacemaker implants, cochlear implants, dentures held in place by magnets imbedded in the gums and aneurysm clips except those inserted at CGMH
    2. Metallic prosthesis of the hip or pelvic region
    3. Renal function impairment with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2

    5. Medical drugs with choline
    6. Previous allergy to carbon-labeled radionuclide
  • Active other malignancy within the last 2 years
  • Subject which in the opinion of the investigator preclude participation for scientific reasons, for reasons of compliance, or for reasons of the subject's safety.
  • Prisoners or patients with mental illness

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
prostate cancer
The newly diagnostic number for the high-risk PCa patients in our hospital annually is ~70, it is clinically feasible to recruit 40 patients a year since the study begins. The study could be completed in 3 years with 120 cases.

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
January 1, 2017

Primary Completion (ANTICIPATED)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
