About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Biodistribution and Pharmacokinetic Study of 18F-DCFBC PSMA Based PET in Patients With Advanced Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in the United States. Through early detection and improved local therapies a large number of men will be cured. The clinical needs include early detection, accurate initial staging and detection of local recurrence or metastases in order to permit application of the most appropriate therapy. Therapeutic monitoring and prognostic assessment are equally important. Imaging can play an important and crucial role in meeting these clinical needs.

Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has gained an important role in the clinical management of cancer patients. 18F-DCFBC is a novel low molecular weight prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-based radiopharmaceutical which is radiolabeled with a fluorine-18 positron emitter for PET imaging. Preclinical mouse prostate cancer tumor model imaging studies of 18F-DCFBC demonstrate high specific uptake in PSMA expressing prostate cancer cells. The investigators will assess the hypothesis that 18F-DCFBC, a new positron emission tomography (PET) radiopharmaceutical may possess pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties that will represent an advance in imaging prostate cancer. This initial phase I study will determine the biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, and prostate specific tumor uptake in patients with metastatic prostate cancer.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Serial PET scans will be used to obtain biodistribution and radiation dosimetry calculations.

    Time-activity curves (TACs) demonstrating radiotracer activity as a function of time post injection (minutes) will be drawn for the whole body and the following organs: brain, breast, gallbladder, stomach, pancreas, heart wall, lung, liver, bladder, muscle, pancreas, red marrow, spleen, adrenals, upper large intestine, lower large intestine, small intestine, thymus, thyroid, testes and ovaries.Organ specific mean radiation-absorbed dose estimates for 18F-DCFBC will be calculated from the individual organ residence times. The OLINDA software package will be used to perform the absorbed dose.

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Assess the ability of 18F-DCFBC PET to detect metastatic prostate cancer by visual qualitative and quantitative SUV analysis

    Correlation will be made to sites of suspected metastatic disease seen on CT portion of PET/CT, available conventional imaging modalities (CIM) (anatomical imaging [CT, MRI, ultrasound], bone scintigraphy or FDG PET) or serum PSA performed for clinical indications

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 18F-DCFBC in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 0 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Serial PET scans will be used to obtain biodistribution and radiation dosimetry calculations. (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Jan 2019.
