Detailed Description

This is a multi-center, prospective intra-patient comparator study of urinary radioactivity (standardized uptake values [SUV]) following both piflufolastat (18F) and flotufolastat (18F) positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with low prostate-specific antigen (PSA; ≤0.5 ng/mL) biochemical recurrence (BCR) of prostate cancer following radical prostatectomy (RP).

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male ≥18 years of age at Visit 1 (Screening).
  • Documented history of localized adenocarcinoma of the prostate with prior curative intent treatment with RP and undetectable PSA post-surgery, experiencing BCR of prostate cancer.
  • At least 6 months must have elapsed after RP.
  • Low PSA BCR defined as PSA ≤0.5 ng/mL.
  • Scheduled by their treating physician to receive a PSMA (18F) PET scan.
  • Written informed consent obtained from the patient and ability for the patient to comply with the requirements of the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with any medical condition or circumstance (including receiving an IP) that the investigator believes may compromise the data collected or lead to a failure to fulfill the study requirements.
  • Patients who are planned to have an x-ray contrast agent or any other PET radiotracer within 24 hours prior to either PSMA PET scan.
  • Patients who have already received a piflufolastat (18F) PET scan prior to providing informed consent for this study.
  • Patients participating in an interventional clinical trial within 30 days and having received an IP within five biological half-lives prior to either of the PSMA PET scans in this study.
  • Patients with known hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients of piflufolastat (18F) or flotufolastat (18F).
  • Patients who have previously undergone a cystectomy or have renal failure, or have other conditions that may significantly affect urinary output, as judged by the investigator.
  • Patients who have already received salvage therapy.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: piflufolastat (18F) and flotufolastat (18F) positron emission tomography (PET)
Each patient will be administered a single dose of piflufolastat (18F) on Day 1, followed by a PET scan. At least 24 hours after the piflufolastat (18F) scan, but within 10 calendar days, all patients will be administered a single dose of flotufolastat (18F) followed by a PET scan.
Positron emission tomography (PET)
Positron emission tomography (PET)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To Compare Urinary Bladder Radioactivity Observed on Piflufolastat (18F) PET and Flotufolastat (18F) PET.
Time Frame: piflufolastat (18F) administration and PET on Day 1; and flotufolastat (18F) administration and PET at least 24 hours after the piflufolastat (18F) scan but within 10 calendar days
Difference in urinary bladder mean SUV (SUVmean) between piflufolastat (18F) and flotufolastat (18F). A positive difference represents a lower bladder SUVmean for flotufolastat (18F) compared to piflufolastat (18F).
piflufolastat (18F) administration and PET on Day 1; and flotufolastat (18F) administration and PET at least 24 hours after the piflufolastat (18F) scan but within 10 calendar days
