Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This clinical trial will evaluate the dosimetry, efficacy and toxicity of Lu-PSMA in men with high PSMA-expressing high-risk localized or locoregional advanced prostate cancer (HRCaP) undergoing radical prostatectomy (RP) and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND)

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

This open label, phase I/II non-randomised clinical trial will evaluate the dosimetry, efficacy and toxicity of Lu-PSMA in men with high PSMA-expressing high-risk localized or locoregional advanced prostate cancer (HRCaP) undergoing radical prostatectomy (RP) and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). Patients will receive one or two cycles of 177Lu-PSMA followed by surgery. The primary objective is to determine the radiation absorbed dose in the prostate and involved lymph nodes. Secondary objectives include evaluating imaging response to therapy using PSMA-PET, biochemical response, pathological response, adverse effects of Lu-PSMA and surgical safety, and health-related Quality of Life (QoL).

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. To determine the radiation absorbed dose in the prostate and involved lymph nodes following one or two administrations of Lu-PSMA in men with HRCaP prior to radical prostatectomy [Determined using imaging at 4, 24 and 96 hrs after administration of Lu-PSMA]

      Establishing the absorbed radiation dose in the prostate and involved lymph nodes (Gy)

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. To evaluate the imaging response to therapy using PSMA-PET [6 weeks following final administration of Lu-PSMA]

      PSMA PET response to therapy (complete metabolic response, partial metabolic response, stable metabolic disease, progressive metabolic disease)

    2. To evaluate the biochemical response to therapy [6 weeks following final administration of Lu-PSMA]

      PSA response

    3. To evaluate pathologic response in the prostate following prostatectomy [After prostatectomy, approximately 6 weeks from final Lu-PSMA administration]

      Pathological response (complete response, minimal residual disease)

    4. To evaluate toxicity of Lu-PSMA [Until 8 weeks after prostatectomy]

      Assessment of toxicity of Lu-PSMA using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5

    5. To evaluate the surgical safety of prostatectomy following Lu-PSMA [Until 8 weeks after prostatectomy]

      Surgical safety will be assessed using using the Clavien-Dindo classification of surgical complications

    6. To evaluate overall health-related Quality of Life (QoL) [baseline, immediately before 2nd cycle Lu-PSMA, immediately before surgery, 8 weeks post surgery, annually up to 3 years]

      QoL indices will be scored using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30 questionnaire

    7. To evaluate prostate cancer health-related Quality of Life (QoL) [baseline, immediately before 2nd cycle Lu-PSMA, immediately before surgery, 8 weeks post surgery, annually up to 3 years]

      QoL indices will be scored using European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-PR25 questionnaire

    8. To evaluate patient function and bother after prostatectomy [baseline, immediately before 2nd cycle Lu-PSMA, immediately before surgery, 8 weeks post surgery, annually up to 3 years]

      Indices will be scored using the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC)-26 questionnaire

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. To determine the time to biochemical recurrence (BCR) [PSA>0.2 ng/mL post-RP] [To be determined as it is an exploratory endpoint up to 3 years]

      Biochemical recurrence (BCR) will be measured from the time of surgery to the first rise of the PSA to ≥0.2 ng/mL

    2. To determine the relationship between PSMA PET imaging parameters and absorbed dose [baseline PSMA PET within 45 days of Lu-PSMA administration]

      Determination of the relationship between screening PSMA PET imaging parameters including molecular tumour volume parameters and absorbed dose in the prostate and involved lymph nodes

    3. To identify tissue and blood and serum biomarkers associated with clinical outcomes [To be determined as it is an exploratory endpoint up to 3 years]

      Determination of relevant predictive biomarkers associated with treatment outcomes and response
