E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
1. To assess the ability of Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET/CT imaging to detect prostate cancer tissue within a. the prostate gland on level of quadrant (or octant if possible) and b. pelvic lymph node metastases on level of 8 defined sub-regions. 2. To assess the clinical safety of Ga-68-PSMA-11.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1.To assess the ability of Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET/CT imaging to detect bone metastases in comparison to 99mTc bone scintigraphy 2.To compare Ga-68-PSMA-11 uptake in primary tumors with Gleason score in surgical specimens from RP. 3.Determine the percentage of patients in which pre-operative Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET/CT imaging would result into a change in clinical management. 4.To evaluate the impact of pre-operative Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET/CT imaging on target volume definition for radiotherapy. 5.Exploratory analysis of molecular and clinical biomarkers (CTC, RNA, DNA, proteins) in blood, serum and plasma.

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1.Written informed consent. 2.Male ≥ 18 years of age. 3.Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate. 4.High risk for metastasis, defined by either: a.stadium cT3 according to TNM classification, or b.Gleason Score >7, or c.PSA >20 ng/mL. 5.Patient scheduled for radical prostatectomy (RP) with extended pelvic lymph node dissection (EPLND) according to current guidelines 7-60 days after start of the study. 6.Consent to practise contraception until end of study (6 days after Ga-68-PSMA-11 injection). 7.Preoperative PCA staging performed according to guidelines, to include a mandatory 99mTc bone scintigraphy and an optional pelvic MRI or CT, not older than 56 days prior to inclusion, according to standard of care.
|
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |

Simultaneous participation in other clinical trials.

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Primary endpoint is the detection of PET signals in prostate gland (on level of quadrant or octant if possible) and lymph nodes of the pelvis (on level of 8 defined subregions) after Ga-68-PSMA-11 injection. Another primary endpoint is occurrence of side effects.
|
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Secondary endpoints include detection of bone metastasis, standard uptake values (SUV) of PET signals in prostate gland and lymph nodes of the pelvis, detection of PET signals outside the pelvis, and change of clinical therapy management. Moreover the impact of PSMA imaging on target volume definition in radiotherapy will be studied. |
