NCT ID NCT04777071

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether a special PET scan using a tracer called 68Ga-PSMA-11 can find prostate cancer more clearly than standard scans. About 141 men with prostate cancer at different stages will get the scan. The goal is to see if the scan changes how doctors plan treatment, such as switching from one therapy to another.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Gallium Ga 68 Gozetotide (a radioactive tracer used in PET scans)
What this could lead to
If successful, this imaging method could help doctors more accurately stage prostate cancer and choose the best treatment, potentially improving outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a phase 2 trial with 141 participants, so results are still preliminary. The scan may not always change management or improve survival, and false positives are possible.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Pathologically proven prostate adenocarcinoma * For the initial staging arm (initial staging cohort), high risk characteristics, including any of the following: * Grade group 4-5 and/or * PSA \> 20 ng/mL * For patients with biochemical recurrence (biochemical recurrence cohort): * Rising PSA after definitive therapy with prostatectomy or targeted local therapy (including but not limited to external beam radiation therapy, brachytherapy, high-frequency ultrasound, and cryotherapy) * If post-radical prostatectomy, PSA \> 0.2 ng/mL measured \> 6 weeks post-operatively and confirmatory persistent PSA greater than 0.2 ng/mL (American Urological Association (AUA) definition for biochemical recurrence * If post-radiation therapy, PSA that is equal to, or greater than, a 2 mg/mL rise above PSA nadir (American Society of Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) definition for biochemical recurrence) * For patients undergoing systemic therapy (treatment monitoring cohort): * Diagnosis of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer * At least one or more measurable ( \> 1 cm diameter in short axis) or evaluable lesions by any modality obtained within the past 60 days * Planned for treatment with standard of care androgen receptor pathway inhibitor or chemotherapy * This can include patients who have already undergone a standard of care Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT or PET/MR for determining eligibility for Lu-177 PSMA therapy, for whom the PET/CT or PET/MR did not confirm eligibility for treatment with Lu-177 PSMA, and who are planned to start treatment on chemotherapy or androgen receptor signaling inhibitor (ARSI) within 30 days of the Ga-68 PSMA PET. This can also include patients who have obtained a standard of care Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT or PET/MR for rising PSA to help with restaging prior to starting new treatment with ARSI or chemotherapy, even if Lu-177 PSMA is not being considered at that time. Scan 1 must be completed within 30 days of enrollment. Any patient with an equivocal lesion by conventional imaging, regardless of where they are in the course of evaluation or treatment (equivocal lesion cohort) * No other malignancy within the past 2 years (with the exception of skin basal cell or cutaneous superficial squamous cell carcinoma, superficial bladder cancer, carcinoma in situ in any location, or Rai Stage 0 chronic lymphocytic leukemia, which are allowed) * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group/World Health Organization (ECOG/WHO) performance status grades 0, 1, or 2 * Ability to understand and willingness to provide informed consent Exclusion Criteria: * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
