About this study

Official title: The Correlation Between the Detection Rate of 18F-FACBC PET/CT and the PSA Kinetics for Prostate Cancer Patients With Biochemical Recurrence.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the fifth-most common cancer for male with a seventh highest cancer-related death in Taiwan. Currently, the incidence and mortality rate are still increasing rapidly. The treatment decision planning is made up by clinical charts like Gleason score (GS), TNM stage and serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level. However, after definitive therapy for PCa with either external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) or radical prostatectomy (RP), up to half patients experience biochemical recurrence (BCR). Although not all patients with BCR proceed to develop disease progression, it is important to identify early lesion to initiate salvage treatment.

Anti-1-amino-3-[18F]fluorocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid (18F-FACBC) positron emission tomography (PET) is a imaging marker for L-amino acid transport evaluation. Many cancers including PCa have up-regulated amino acid transport tied to their proliferative potential. Recently, 18F-FACBC was included in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines for the management of recurrent PCa patients. As we know, PSA level and PSA kinetics are valuable for the prediction of recurrence. The objective of this study is to investigate the correlation between the detection rate of 18F-FACBC PET/CT and the PSA kinetics for PCa patients with BCR.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 18F-FACBC PET/CT in people with Biochemical Relapse Fo Malignant Neoplasm of Prostate, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2022. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Yi-Hsien Chou, MD (+886-97252572, Y06922@ms1.ylh.gov.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The detection rate of 18F-FACBC PET/CT (time frame: 30 minutes). 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 22 Sep 2022.
