PSMA PET/CT for Assessment of Recurrent Prostate Cancer

Fluorine-18 - 2-(3-(1-carboxy-5-[(6-[18F]Fluoro-pyridine-3-carbonyl)-Amino]-Pentyl)-Ureido)-Pentanedioic Acid (18F-DCFPyL) Positron Emission Tomography / Computed Tomography (PET/CT) for Assessment of Recurrent Prostate Cancer

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Prostate cancer (PC) is the third most common cause of cancer death in men. Most patients with localized PC will be cured with surgery or radiation therapy, but up to 35% of patients will have their PC return. Whether it has returned locally or distantly determines which type of treatment they will receive. Current conventional imaging modalities have limitations particularly at low prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. This study proposes to use Fluorine-18-2-(3-(1-carboxy-5-\[(6-\[18F\]fluoro-pyridine-3-carbonyl)-amino\]-pentyl)-ureido)-pentanedioic acid (18F-DCFPyL) Positron Emission Tomography / Computer Tomography (PET/CT) scans which targets prostate-specific membrane antigens (PSMA) to detect where in the body the PC has recurred.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Medically unstable (eg. acute illness, unstable vital signs)

Other

  • Unable to lie supine for the duration of imaging
  • Unable to provide written consent
  • Exceeds safe weight limit of the PET/CT bed (204.5 kg) or unable to fit through the PET/CT bore (diameter 70 cm)

Who the study is looking for

  • Known PC with a biochemical recurrence (BR) after initial curative therapy with radical prostatectomy, with a documented history of failure of PSA to fall to undetectable levels (PSA persistence) or undetectable PSA after radical prostatectomy with a subsequent detectable PSA that increased on 2 or more determinations (PSA recurrence). The patient may have received treatment following documentation of PSA persistence or PSA recurrence. The most recent PSA measurement must be greater than 0.4 ng/mL.
  • Participants with findings on other examinations (such as plain x-ray, CT, MRI or bone scintigraphy and others) that are suspicious for metastatic disease but not conclusively diagnostic of metastatic disease.
  • Known PC with BR after initial curative therapy with radiation therapy (including brachytherapy), with a PSA level \>2 ng/mL above the nadir after radiation therapy.
  • Castration resistant PC with a minimum PSA of 2.0 ng/mL with 2 consecutive rises above the nadir and castrate levels of testosterone (\<1.7 nmol/L). Treatment does not need to be discontinued before the 18F-DCFPyL scan.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 2 or less.
