New PET scan agent shows promise for spotting prostate cancer
NCT ID NCT04838626
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new imaging agent called [18F]CTT1057 for PET scans to see how well it can find prostate cancer tumors. 195 men with high-risk prostate cancer who were scheduled for surgery received the scan. The results were compared to tissue samples taken during surgery to measure accuracy.

Inclusion Criteria: * Untreated high risk biopsy-proven PCa patients according to D'Amico classification (Stage ≥ T2c or PSA level \>20ng/ml or Gleason score ≥8) (D'Amico et al 1998) * Scheduled or planned radical prostatectomy and extended pelvic lymph node resection up to 6 weeks after the investigational PET/CT scan followed by histopathology assessment * ECOG performance status 0-2 * Signed informed consent must be obtained prior to participation in the study * Participants must be adults ≥ 18 years of age Exclusion Criteria: * Inability to complete the needed investigational and standard-of-care imaging examinations due to any reason (severe claustrophobia, inability to lie still for the entire imaging time, etc.) * Any additional medical condition, serious intercurrent illness, concomitant cancer or other extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would indicate a significant risk to safety or impair study participation, including, but not limited to, current severe urinary incontinence, hydronephrosis, severe voiding dysfunction, need of indwelling/condom catheters, New York Heart Association class III or IV congestive heart failure, history of congenital prolonged QT syndrome, uncontrolled infection, active hepatitis B or C, and COVID-19. * Known allergy, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to \[18F\]CTT1057 * Prior and current use of PSMA targeted therapies * Prior and current treatment with any ADT (first or second generation), including LHRH analogues (agonists or antagonists) * Any 5-alpha reductase inhibitors within 30 days before screening * Patients with small cell or neuroendocrine PCa in more than 50% of biopsy tissue * Patients with incidental PCa after transurethral resection * Use of other investigational drugs within 30 days before screening
