Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a study primarily comparing Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) alone to Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/MRI using an experimental tracer, 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC, among men with prostate cancer or prostatic cancer recurrence/metastasis. It is hypothesized that this comparison will demonstrate that PET using the tracer, 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC, is more sensitive than MRI alone. Potential subjects who cannot undergo MRI may undergo PET/CT instead.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: PET/MRI with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC
  • Drug: Multiple PET/MRI with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC
  • Drug: PET/CT with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC
Phase 2

Detailed Description

This is a multi-reader methodological study comparing the diagnostic value of 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC PET/CT or 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC PET/MRI over MRI alone, using histologic confirmation or serial follow-up for up to 2 years as the gold standard for determination of primary prostate cancer or prostatic cancer recurrence/metastasis. It is hypothesized that this will demonstrate the superiority of 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC PET to MRI for sensitivity, and the non-inferiority of 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC PET to MRI for specificity.This is a paired, case-control design that is appropriate to statistically evaluate the difference in sensitivity and specificity between the two imaging modalities. Therefore, the estimation of population prevalence is not a study objective, and estimation of clinical utility through calculation of positive and negative predictive values is not appropriate. Imaging studies and follow up subject scans will be organized so that a panel of independent readers will evaluate the MRI and PET studies to assess the level of suspicion for prostate cancer.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: PET/MRI

PET/MRI with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC: Subjects will have one visit during which they will undergo a PET/MRI after being injected with the study drug, Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC.

Drug: PET/MRI with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC
Subjects have one visit, during which they will undergo one PET/MRI with the study drug, Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC, a radiopharmaceutical

Experimental: Multiple PET/MRI

Multiple PET/MRI with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC: Subjects will be invited to participate in two visits within two years, the second being an optional visit. During each visit, subjects will undergo a PET/MRI after being injected with the study drug, Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC. This arm will be restricted to subjects who plan to undergo focal therapy.

Drug: Multiple PET/MRI with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC
Subjects have two visits (the second visit being optional) within two years. During each visit, they will undergo one PET/MRI with the study drug, Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC, a radiopharmaceutical

Experimental: PET/CT

PET/CT with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC: Subjects will have one visit during which they will undergo a PET/CT after being injected with the study drug, Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC.

Drug: PET/CT with Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC
Subjects have one visit, during which they will undergo one PET/CT with the study drug, Gallium-68 labeled PSMA-HBED-CC, a radiopharmaceutical

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Sensitivity and specificity, of 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC PET [Up to two time points (approx. 2 hours each) within 3 years or less]

    Compare the diagnostic performance, presented as comparative sensitivity and specificity, of 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC PET versus conventional MRI in a population of patients with prostate cancer.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Safety of the 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC [Up to two time points (approx. 2 hours each) within 3 years or less]

    To be assessed by tabulation of number of procedure-related adverse effects
