Single-center, prospective, open-label, not randomized, diagnostic phase II trial in the management of patients with prostate cancer.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

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

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Single-center, prospective, open-label, not randomized, diagnostic phase II trial in the management of patients with prostate cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate the additional diagnostic role of 18F- PSMA PET /CT (sensitivity) in patients with prostate cancer with biochemical relapse compared to other diagnostic methods routinely used. The primary objective is to evaluate the sensitivity of 18F-PSMA PET/CT defined as the ratio between the number of 18F-PSMA PET/CT positive patients and the number of prostate cancer patients with biochemical relapse and negative standard imaging.Patients enrolled in the study would benefit from a more accurate but above all earlier diagnosis of disease recurrence sites, thus being able to undergo targeted therapies, with a clear impact on the clinical management of the disease.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: 18F-PSMA PET/CT
Patients with evidence of biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer radically treated, with negative results to traditional diagnostic methods or doubtful imaging of 18F- Fluoro Methyl Choline (18F-FMC) PET/CT will perform a 18F-PSMA PET/CT as a tool for searching and location of recurrence.
Drug: 18F-PSMA
18F-PSMA will be injected intravenously at a dosage of 200-250 megabecquerel (MBq) prior to perform Image acquisition (Topogram, CT, PET)

What is the study measuring?

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Diagnostic role of 18F- PSMA PET /CT (sensitivity)
Time Frame: Up to 30 months
Sensitivity of 18F-PSMA PET/CT will be calculated as the ratio between the number of 18F- PSMA PET/CT positive patients and number of patients with radically treated prostate cancer with biochemical relapse and negativity of traditional morphological imaging.
Up to 30 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity for different PSA values (ranges)
Time Frame: Up to 30 months
Sensitivity of 18F-PSMA PET/CT will be stratified respect to different ranges of Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) values.
Up to 30 months
Sensitivity for different lesion sites
Time Frame: Up to 30 months
Sensitivity of 18F-PSMA PET/CT will be stratified respect to different sites of lesion.
Up to 30 months
predictive role of 18F-PSMA PET/CT on disease status according to standard imaging and PSA evaluation.
Time Frame: Up to 30 months
To evaluate the predictive role of 18F-PSMA PET/CT on disease status, for patients that will start an anticancer treatment. It will be performed the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves generated by plotting sensitivity versus 1-specificity The best cut-off value for distinguishing between positive and negative 18F- PSMA PET/CT findings will be determined using Youden's index.
Up to 30 months
evaluation of the concordance between 18F-PSMA PET/CT and other methods
Time Frame: Up to 30 months
To evaluate the concordance between 18F-PSMA PET/CT and PET/CT or the others standard methods, for patients without any treatment, it will be performed by Cohen's kappa coefficient
Up to 30 months
18F-PSMA Safety: treated patients undergoing grade 1 to 4 adverse event
Time Frame: Up to 30 months
Number and percentage of treated patients undergoing grade 1 to 4 adverse events will be tabulated according to CTCAE version 5.0.
