  • Patients physically and psychologically able to participate to the study
  • Person informed about study organization and having signed the informed consent
  • Patients who understood the principle and modalities of the study
  • Person undergone the medical examination adapted to research

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any excipient of the IMP
  • Patients with known allergy to furosemide or sulfonamides. Other contraindications to furosemide do not apply to patients for whom the product will be used as a single dose
  • Patients with a history of malignant pathology (except for basal-cell cutaneous carcinoma)
  • Drug or alcohol dependence, serious current illness, mental disorder or any circumstance which, in the opinion of the investigator, could interfere with the conduct or interpretation of the study
  • Exposure to another IMP within 60 days prior to inclusion
  • Person referred in articles L.1121-7 and L.1121-8 of the Public Health Code:

    • Minor person (non-emancipated)
    • Adult person under legal protection (any form of public guardianship)
    • Adult person incapable of giving consent
  • Person deprived of liberty for judicial or administrative decision, Person under psychiatric care according to articles L. 3212-1 and L. 3213-1.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
As choline transport and phosphorylation are upregulated in most cancers, including prostate cancer, positron emission tomography (PET) with choline tracers has found widespread use to detect recurrent disease. However, choline metabolism is not increased in a significant number of cases, probably explaining why this imaging method has been reported to be weakly sensitive and specific fro the detection of prostate cancer lesions, especially at low prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. By contrast, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is overexpressed in most prostate cancer, suggesting that 68Ga-labelled PSMA ligands could be superior to choline tracers. A meta-analysis published in 2016 (Perera M. and al.), which included 18 studies, of which five reported histolopathologic correlation data for 68Ga-PSMA PET-positive lesions, indicated favourable sensitivity and specificity profiles of 68Ga-labelled PSMA ligands compared to choline-based PET imaging techniques.
Detailed Description
HBED-PSMA Sterile Cold Kit is a kit for preparation of radiolabelled 68Ga-PSMA-11. After radiolabelling with a 68Ga chloride solution complying with the requirements of monograph 2464 of the European Pharmacopoeia (Ph Eur), the solution may be used in men with biochemical relapse of prostate cancer after treatment. A large number of studies have been published on 68Ga-PSMA-ligands but none has yet been conducted with a product manufactured in accordance with ANMI technology. The aim of the study is to demonstrate the superiority of 68Ga-PSMA-11, prepared from a room temperature radiolabel kit containing PSMA-11 (PSMA-11 Sterile Cold Kit) and gallium 68 obtained from a 68Ge / 68Ga generator on 18F-Fluorocholine (18F-FCH) in identifying prostate cancer recurrence after radical treatment sites. So, patients will be evaluated with the current workup at CHRU of Nancy and will then be submitted to 68GA-PSMA-11 and 18F-FCH imaging. Patients will be randomized to the imaging procedure after workup in a 1/1 ratio between 68GA-PSMA-11 and comparator. So all patients will be submitted to 68GA-PSMA-11 and 18F-FCH; 50% of patients will receive the 68GA-PSMA-11 first; 50% of patients will receive the comparator first. There will be a time interval of minimum 7 days and maximum 14 days between both imaging procedures. In order to mimic, as far as possible, the routine clinical practices, a sequential unblinding will be used for image readers. Readers will evaluate 68GA-PSMA-11 and 18F-FCH images with progressive access to more clinical information on each read. It will be done in three steps: fully blinded image evaluation, then image evaluation with results of the patient's clinical history and finally image evaluation with results of the patient's workup and clinical history.
