About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Recurrent Prostate Carcinoma

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)MaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Provides written informed consent
  • Known diagnosis of prostate cancer
  • Patient has suspected recurrence based on biochemical data (prostate specific antigen [PSA] > 2 ng/mL)
  • Able to remain still for duration of each imaging procedure (about one hour)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Unable to provide informed consent
  • Inability to lie still for the entire imaging time
  • Inability to complete the needed investigational and standard-of-care imaging examinations due to other reasons (severe claustrophobia, radiation phobia, etc.)
  • Any additional medical condition, serious intercurrent illness, or other extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may significantly interfere with study compliance

Sites / Locations

  • Stanford University, School of Medicine

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Diagnostic (68Ga-PSMA PET/CT or PET/MRI)

Arm Description

Patients receive gallium Ga 68-labeled PSMA ligand Glu-urea-Lys(Ahx) IV and then undergo PET/CT or PET/MRI approximately 45-60 minutes later.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Average SUVmax of Ga68 PSMA Uptake Outside the Expected Normal Biodistribution
The biodistribution (ie, the location(s) of physiologic radiopharmaceutical uptake within the body) of Ga68 PSMA will be evaluated using PET/CT or PET/MRI. Biodistribution will be measured by drawing regions of interest (ROI) around areas with visually appreciable increased focal uptake over background (mediastinal blood pool) and calculating a standardized uptake value maximum (SUVmax), which is a semi-quantitative measurement of the maximum value of radiopharmaceutical uptake within the ROI.
Average SUVmean of Ga68 PSMA Uptake Outside the Expected Normal Biodistribution
The biodistribution (ie, the location(s) of physiologic radiopharmaceutical uptake within the body) of Ga68 PSMA will be evaluated using PET/CT or PET/MRI. Biodistribution will be measured by drawing regions of interest (ROI) around areas with visually appreciable increased focal uptake over background (mediastinal blood pool) and calculating a SUVmean which is a semi-quantitative measurement of the average value of radiopharmaceutical uptake within the ROI.
Average SUVmax Focal Uptake of Ga68 PSMA (F/N Ratio)
Focal uptake will be measured by drawing regions-of-interest (ROI) around areas with visually appreciable increased focal uptake over background (mediastinal blood pool) and calculating a SUVmax (a semi-quantitative measurement of the maximum value of radiopharmaceutical uptake within the ROI). The result will be expressed as the F/N ratio, ie, SUVmax of focal uptake divided by SUVmax of background.
Average SUVmean Focal Uptake of Ga68 PSMA (F/N Ratio)
Focal uptake will be measured by drawing regions-of-interest (ROI) around areas with visually appreciable increased focal uptake over background (mediastinal blood pool) and calculating a SUVmean (a semi-quantitative measurement of the average value of radiopharmaceutical uptake within the ROI). The result will be expressed as the F/N ratio, ie, SUVmax of focal uptake divided by SUVmax of background.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Feasibility of Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT or PET/MRI Scan
Feasibility of Ga68 PSMA PET/CT or PET/MRI is expressed as the number of subjects for whom the scan was successfully completed.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This clinical trial studies gallium-68 (68Ga)-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) (gallium Ga 68-labeled PSMA ligand Glu-urea-Lys[Ahx]) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) or PET/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in identifying prostate cancer that may have returned after a period of improvement (biochemical recurrence). 68Ga-PSMA is a radiopharmaceutical that localizes to a specific prostate cancer receptor, which can then be imaged by the PET/CT or PET/MRI scanner.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: Evaluate the feasibility and biodistribution of 68Ga-PSMA. OUTLINE: Patients are injected with 5 mCi of Ga68 PSMA intravenously (IV) and then undergo PET/CT or PET/MRI approximately 45 to 60 minutes later. After completion of study, patients are followed up at 24 hours and 1 week.
