Gallium-68 PSMA-11 PET Imaging in Prostate Cancer Patients

July 31, 2021 updated by: Thomas Hope
The investigators are imaging patients with prostate cancer using a new Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging agent (Ga-68-PSMA-11) in order to evaluate its ability to detect prostate cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients will be imaged using Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11 PET to determine if there is presence of metastatic disease. Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) is a protein expressed on prostate cancer cells that can be imaged using small molecules that target this protocol. PET imaging will begin 50-100 minutes after injection, but may be possible in certain circumstances for imaging to be delayed due to patient workflow or equipment issues

Primary Objective:

Sensitivity on a per-patient and per-region-basis (Table 1) of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET for detection of tumor location confirmed by histopathology/biopsy, clinical and conventional imaging follow-up.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11 PET PSMA
The imaging agent (Ga-68 PSMA-11 or PSMA-HBED-CC) will be administered on an outpatient basis. It will be administered a single time intravenously prior to the PET imaging. The injected dose will be 3 to 7 millicurie (mCi) +/- 10% of 68Ga-PSMA-11.
Patients will be imaged using Ga-68 labeled PSMA-11 PET to determine if there is presence of metastatic disease. Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) is a protein expressed on prostate cancer cells that can be imaged using small molecules that target this protocol.

Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) is a nuclear medicine technique which combines, in a single gantry, a positron emission tomography (PET) scanner and an x-ray computed tomography (CT) scanner, to acquire sequential images from both devices in the same session
Other Names:
  • PET-CT
A PET/MRI scan is a two-in-one test that combines images from a positron emission tomography (PET) scan and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan in a single session
Other Names:
  • PET-MRI

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease by Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Group
Time Frame: 1 day
Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.
1 day
Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease in Prostate Bed by PSA Group
Time Frame: 1 day
Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer located in the prostate bed and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.
1 day
Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease in Pelvic Nodes by PSA Group
Time Frame: 1 day
Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer located in the pelvic nodes and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.
1 day
Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease in Distant Soft Tissues by PSA Group
Time Frame: 1 day
Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer located in the distant soft tissues and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.
1 day
Detection Rate of PSMA-11 PET for Positive Disease in Bones (Osseous Lesions) by PSA Group
Time Frame: 1 day
Detection rate is defined as the proportion of all patients who have prostate cancer located in the bone (osseous lesions) and are true-positives confirmed by the imaging based on local reads for the detection of metastatic disease. Detection rates will be stratified based upon the PSA group at time of imaging.
