Serial PSMA PET Imaging in the Assessment of Treatment Response in Patients With Progressive Prostate Cancer
Serial PSMA PET Imaging in the Assessment of Treatment Response in Patients With Progressive Prostate Cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine if Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) scans used in this study accurate and better at imaging participants' prostate cancer than the usual methods.
Inclusion Criteria:
Patients with newly diagnosed localized or metastatic prostate cancer are eligible, provided standard imaging (either bone scintigraphy, CT or MRI) demonstrates evidence of radiographic disease
Patient with progressive disease that is non-metastatic are eligible by biochemical progression: A minimum of three rising PSA values from a baseline that are obtained 1 week or more apart, or 2 measurements 2 or more weeks apart
Patients with progressive disease that is metastatic are eligible either by biochemical progression or radiographic progression or both
Patients are permitted to have had up to 2 months of prior hormonal therapy before entering this trial (and many therapeutic trials) and therefore, their progression criteria would apply to their pre-treatment imaging and PSA parameters Note: This criterion pertains to patients with newly diagnosed, untreated disease. This criterion does not apply to those who were already on therapy for metastatic CRPC.
