Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if a new diagnostic research agent named 68Ga-RM2 can show prostate cancer on a PET/CT scan. 68Ga-RM2 stands for Galium-68 labeled DOTA-4-amino-1-carboxymethylpiperidine-D-Phe-Gln-Trp-Ala-Val-Gly-His-Sta-Leu-NH2. This study is being done because there are unmet medical needs to improve the current ways of detecting prostate cancers before surgery.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: PET/CT imaging with 68Ga-RM2

The intervention is the administration of a single dose of 150-200 MBq 68Ga-RM2 (mass <= 30 μg) for imaging purposes. This will be followed by a 30-40 min PET/CT study after a waiting period of 60 min (+/- 10 min). Prior clinical experience suggests that imaging can be performed within 1 hour post injection (27, 28). MR imaging and prostatectomy will be performed as standard of care at MSKCC.

Radiation: 68Ga-RM2 (RM2)

Device: PET/CT Scan

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Localizing Tumors [within two weeks prior to the planned prostatectomy]

    Localization will be defined using a total of 12 regions within the prostate: right and left base, midgland and apex in both peripheral and transition zones. The uptake on each region will be assessed by a radiologist blinded to standard of care imaging and clinical characteristics. Histopathological confirmation will be used as the gold standard.
