Multicenter Randomized Trial of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT Based SRT After Radical Prostatectomy (PSMA SRT)

May 21, 2026 updated by: Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center

Phase III Randomized Multicenter Trial of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT Molecular Imaging for Prostate Cancer Salvage Radiotherapy Planning [PSMA-SRT]

This phase III trial studies how well Gallium Ga 68-labeled PSMA-11 (68Ga-PSMA-11) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) works in diagnosing participants with prostate cancer that has come back after surgery. 68Ga-PSMA-11 are taken up by cancer cells. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/CT scans, may help find and diagnose prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread. Giving 68Ga-PSMA-11 with PET/CT may help doctors plan better for salvage radiation therapy in participants with recurrent prostate cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Success rate of salvage radiation therapy (SRT) measured as biochemical progression-free survival after initiation of SRT.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Sub-group analysis of the primary endpoint (success rate of SRT) within the subgroup with baseline PSA ≥ 0.5 ng/ml II. 5-year biochemical progression-free survival rate (from date of randomization).

III. Metastasis free survival. IV. Initiation of additional salvage therapy after completion of SRT. V. Change in initial treatment intent.

OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I: Participants receive standard of care SRT.

ARM II: Participants receive 68Ga-PSMA-11 intravenously (IV) and 50-100 minutes later undergo whole-body (skull base to mid-thighs) PET/CT. Participants then undergo SRT per the discretion of the treating radiation oncologist.

After conclusion of PET/CT, participants are followed up periodically for up to 5 years.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Success rate of salvage radiation therapy (SRT)
Time Frame: From date of initiation of SRT assessed up to 5 years
Will be measured as biochemical progression-free survival after initiation of SRT. Will use a log rank test to compare progression free survival time between the two randomized treatment arms.
From date of initiation of SRT assessed up to 5 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Biochemical progression-free survival rate
Time Frame: From date of randomization assessed up to 5 years
Will utilize Cox-proportional hazards regression models. These models will include terms for treatment as well as appropriate clinical/demographic covariates (e.g., androgen deprivation therapy [ADT], pelvic lymph node radiation therapy [LN RT], prostate specific antigen [PSA] doubling time, Gleason grade, T stage, age, etc). Residual analyses will be performed to evaluate the proportional hazards assumptions of the Cox model. As a sensitivity analysis, we will also consider survival models that can account for competing risks (ex. death from other causes).
