Official title
ESCAPE - Evaluation of Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography in Active Surveillance for Prostate CancEr
Overview
This study will be assessing the ability of PSMA-PET CT to determine the absence of clinically significant prostate cancer in patients on active surveillance (AS) with low risk and favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer.
Detailed description
This is a prospective, multicenter, nonrandomized single-arm study assessing the diagnostic accuracy of PSMA-PET CT (Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography) in determining the absence of clinically significant prostate cancer in patients on active surveillance (AS).The trial will enroll 200 subjects for low and favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer patients per NCCN guidelines who have elected to pursue active surveillance.
Interventions
- Diagnostic test PSMA-PET CT
Patients will undergo PSMA-PET CT (Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography) at baseline, 12 month and 24 month time point.
Primary outcome measures
- Negative predictive value (NPV) [Time frame: Baseline]
- Negative predictive value (NPV) [Time frame: 12 months]
- Negative predictive value (NPV) [Time frame: 24 months]
Secondary outcome measures (12)
- Positive predictive value (PPV) of PSMA PET. [Time frame: Baseline]
- Positive predictive value (PPV) of PSMA PET. [Time frame: 12 months]
- Positive predictive value (PPV) of PSMA PET. [Time frame: 24 months]
- Number of patients with negative PSMA pet scan. [Time frame: Baseline]
- Number of patients with negative PSMA pet scan. [Time frame: 12 months]
- Number of patients with negative PSMA pet scan. [Time frame: 24 months]
- Number of positive scans on mpMRI [Time frame: Baseline]
- Number of positive scans on mpMRI [Time frame: 12 months]
- Number of positive scans on mpMRI [Time frame: 24 months]
- Number of positive scans on PSMA-PET [Time frame: Baseline]
- Number of positive scans on PSMA-PET [Time frame: 12 months]
- Number of positive scans on PSMA-PET [Time frame: 24 months]
