Clinical Trial Results:
An open-label, single-arm, rater-blinded, multicenter phase 1/2 study to assess safety and diagnostic accuracy and radiotherapeutic implications of pre-operative Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET/CT imaging in comparison to histopathology, in newly-diagnosed prostate cancer (PCA) patients at high risk for metastasis, scheduled for radical prostatectomy (RP) with extended pelvic lymph node dissection (EPLND).

General information about the trial
|
|||
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.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
To minimise irradiation of the urinary bladder, subjects will be encouraged to increase fluid intake and to void frequently through the first day after administration.
|
||
Background therapy |
All patients were scheduled for radical prostatectomy (RP) with extended pelvic lymph node dissection (EPLND). | ||

Recruitment
|

Recruitment details |
Patients were recruited in 9 uro-oncological sites in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, with access to a radiopharmaceutical laboratory, experienced to prepare 68Ga-labelled compounds, and high-quality PET/CT imaging. | ||||||||||
Pre-assignment
|
|||||||||||
Screening details |
Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate. 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. Patient scheduled for radical prostatectomy (RP) with extended pelvic lymph node dissection (EPLND) according to current guidelines 7–60 days after | ||||||||||

Blinding implementation details |
Histology analysis were made centrally by a single pathologist blind to imaging results. Conversely, PET/CT (PET/MR) images were analysed by two central readers plus a central adjudication reader blind to histology results.
