NCT ID NCT07011342

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 is testing whether a PSMA-PET scan using a radioactive tracer called 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 can accurately detect prostate cancer that has come back after focal gland treatment. About 70 men who had focal therapy for intermediate-risk prostate cancer will receive the scan, and the results will be compared to standard biopsy findings one year after treatment. The goal is to see if this imaging method can reliably identify recurrence without relying solely on biopsies.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
18F-rhPSMA-7.3 (a radioactive tracer used in PET scans)
What this could lead to
If successful, this scan could become a reliable way to detect prostate cancer recurrence after focal therapy, potentially reducing the need for invasive biopsies.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with only 70 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The scan may miss some recurrences or show false positives.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 70 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Oct 2025

Expected to finish

Nov 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Male participants only

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Adult males 18 years or older; * Patient must have a pre-treatment MRI; * Patient underwent SOC focal therapy with either focal or hemiablation for the treatment of intermediate risk prostate cancer in the past 9 months prior to enrollment; * Intermediate risk disease as defined by American Urology Academy (AUA)/National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines (see Appendix A) * Life Expectancy of 10 years or more; * Underwent standard template biopsy before treatment with a minimum of 2 cores into the MRI visible lesion if lesion was present; * Patient understands the purpose of the trial and procedures required for the trial, and can provide signed informed consent as which includes compliances with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in the study protocol; and * Ability to adhere to the study visit schedule and all the protocol requirements, including surveillance imaging and test specimen (blood sample) collection at specified time points. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients under the age of 18 will be considered pediatric patients and will not be included in this study because they are thought to represent a unique population outside the scope of this study as it is aimed at identifying factors that affect adults only. * Patients previously treated with whole gland ablation or prior partial gland ablation over 9 months prior to enrollment.
