About this study

In this study, we aim to evaluate the feasibility of anti-PSMA labelling to detect post-operative prostatic tissues by two ex vivo fluorescence techniques. We will evaluate the feasibility and detection of anti-PSMA labelling by:

  1. / the FEMTO-ST institute medical device,
  2. / the confocal microscope that will be used to measure fluorescence spectra of biological samples.
Read the detailed description

For this protocol, 12 patients will be included.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Fluorescence assessmentOther

    All subjects of the study are going to have a radical prostatectomy. The FEMTO-ST medical device is used on 3 fresh biopsies (2 healthy and 1 malignant) which will be prelevated from the resected prostate in order to determine the prostatic or non-prostatic nature of tissue.

Experimental: fluorescence assessmentMedical device: Use of the FEMTO-ST institute medical device to detect prostatic and non prostatic tissue.
Receives: Other: Fluorescence assessment

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of the fluorescence obtained using the FEMTO-ST device and the confocal microscope of anti-PSMA marked fresh prostate biopsies, for prostatic and non-prostatic tissue, as identified by anatomo-pathology (gold standard).

    Fluorescence measurements obtained using the FEMTO-ST medical device and the confocal microscope.

    Measured: 14 months

  1. Comparison of the fluorescence obtained using the FEMTO-ST device and the confocal microscope of anti-PSMA marked fresh prostate biopsies, for cancerous and non-cancerous tissue, as identified by anatomo-pathology (gold standard).

    Fluorescence measurements obtained using the FEMTO-ST medical device and the confocal microscope.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cancer Prostate, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 2 sites in France.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 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 2 sites in France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Results obtained on the first 8 patients shown an expected glandular membrane specific labeling associated with non-specific labeling of fibro-muscular tissue.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Comparison of the fluorescence obtained using the FEMTO-ST device and the confocal microscope of anti-PSMA marked fresh prostate biopsies, for prostatic and non-prostatic tissue, as identified by anatomo-pathology (gold standard). (time frame: 14 months). 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 15 Jan 2019.
