rhPSMA-73 PET-MRI Imaging for the Detection of Prostate Cancer Among Men Who Are Otherwise Candidates for Active Surveillance

September 29, 2023 updated by: Ashley Ross MD, PhD, Northwestern University

A Pilot Study of rhPSMA-PET MRI Imaging for the Detection of Clinically Actionable Prostate Cancer Among Men Who Are Otherwise Candidates for Active Surveillance

This clinical trial evaluates whether positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging (PET-MRI) using the radioactive drug radiohybrid prostate-specific membrane antigen (rhPSMA)-7.3 may help in detecting higher grade or stage disease in men with low and favorable intermediate risk prostate cancer who are candidates for active surveillance. A PET scan is a test that uses a radioactive drug and a computer to create images of how organs and tissues in the body are functioning. The radioactive drug used in this study, rhPSMA-7.3, attaches to the abnormal cells in the body at a different rate than normal cells which allows the scanner to create a detailed picture of how the body is working. An MRI scan uses strong magnets and computers to create detailed images of the soft tissue in your body. A multiparametric (mp)MRI is a type of MRI scan that creates a more detailed picture of the prostate gland. Using rhPSMA-73 with PET-MRI and mpMRI may be more effective in detecting higher grade or stage disease in men with low and favorable intermediate risk prostate cancer.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Measure the rate of rhPSMA-7.3-PET-MRI identified Gleason Grade Group (GG) 3-5 disease on pathology or locally advanced disease. A threshold rate of 15% detection will be considered clinically significant.

SEONDARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Assessment of safety.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) for rhPSMA-PET-MRI to detect prostate cancer in the prostate stratified by Gleason Grade Groups.

II. Correlate PET MRI findings with surgical specimens for those men who undergo surgical treatment (including assessment of pathological stage).

III. Define whether gene expression of PSMA (FOLH1) as defined on the Decipher messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression platform relates to signal intensity on PSMA scan.

IV. Determine whether Decipher genomic classifier scores, luminal / basal scores or androgen receptor activity scores relate to signal intensity on PSMA scans.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive rhPSMA-7.3 intravenously (IV) then undergo PET-MRI and mpMRI of the prostate on study. Patients also undergo Decipher test at screening and MRI-PET prostate biopsy or radical prostatectomy within 90 days per standard of care.
