Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) Imaging for Detection of Residual and Metastatic Prostate Cancer

8 september 2026 uppdaterad av: Washington University School of Medicine

Optimizing PSMA Imaging for Enhanced Detection of Residual and Metastatic Prostate Cancer in Low PSA Recurrence (OPERA) Study

This is a randomized, open-label, pilot study assessing the impact of a short course of bicalutamide on PSMA expression in patients with prostate cancer belonging to the intermediate unfavorable or high risk group, who have low levels of PSA. Adult patients with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer (BCR PCa) who have a PSA of less than 1.0 ng/mL and who have undergone complete prostatectomy and/or will be undergoing radiotherapy, in combination with standard of care bicalutamide, will be recruited to this study. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio into Group A (baseline PSMA PET/CT only with bicalutamide standard of care) or Group B (baseline PSMA PET/CT and an additional PSMA PET/CT after 2 weeks of bicalutamide).

Deltagargrupp / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Aktiv komparator: Group A: Baseline PSMA PET/CT only with standard of care bicalutamide

Patients will undergo baseline PSMA PET/CT (PET1) with 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 (F-18 flotufolastat, Posluma). After the 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 injection, patients will undergo research imaging consisting of 5 minutes of PET imaging, followed by routine imaging at 60 minutes after 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 injection. Patients will have blood collected for PROSTest and PSA within 1 day of completion of PET1.

Following PET1, patients will initiate standard of care bicalutamide for a minimum of 14 days, with the first dose taken the day after PET1. Patients will undergo a 90 day follow-up visit (relative to PET1) for collection of blood for PROSTest and PSA.

Bicalutamide is a non-steroidal androgen receptor inhibitor administered as a once a day pill taken orally. This is given as standard of care.

Experimentell: Group B: PSMA PET/CT after 2 weeks of standard of care bicalutamide

Patients will undergo baseline PSMA PET/CT (PET1) with 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 (F-18 flotufolastat, Posluma). After the 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 injection, patients will undergo research imaging consisting of 5 minutes of PET imaging, followed by routine imaging at 60 minutes after 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 injection.

Patients will have blood collected for PROSTest and PSA within 1 day of completion of PET1. Following PET1, patients will initiate standard of care bicalutamide for a minimum of 14 days, with the first dose taken the day after PET1 and will undergo a research PSMA PET/CT (PET2) on Day 14 (±3 days). The research PSMA PET/CT (PET2) will follow the same imaging procedures as the baseline PET. Patients will undergo a 90 day follow-up visit (relative to PET1) for collection of blood for PROSTest and PSA.
