Official title
Investigating Glioblastoma PSMA Expression by Utilizing Anti-VEGF and Its Effect on PSMA PET Scan Avidity
Overview
This trial is a single arm study for patients receiving bevacizumab for IDH-wildtype glioblastoma. Patients receiving bevacizumab (an anti-VEGF therapy) will receive PSMA scans to investigate the role of PSMA expression in glioblastoma and its relationship to VEGF expression.
Interventions
- Diagnostic test PSMA PET/CT scan
PSMA PET scan will be used to monitor changes in PSMA expression in response to bevacizumab.
Primary outcome measures
- Changes in PSMA PET metabolic tumour volume (MTV) before and after bevacizumab administration. [Time frame: Prior to first administration of bevacizumab to 6 weeks after.]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- > 18 year of age
- ECOG 0-2
- Able to provide informed consent for the study
- Minimum of 1 month from completion of radiotherapy with clinical or radiography evidence suggesting residual tumour
- Confirmed glioblastoma IDH1/2 wildtype (WHO2021)
- For bevacizumab treatment as per treating physician
- Able to comply with trial requirements
Exclusion criteria
- No major organ impairment that would likely lead to unacceptable toxicities- eg significant cardiac, hepatic, renal or haematologic dysfunction (based on clinician assessment)
- Any contraindication to bevacizumab, MRI gadolinium contrast or 68Ga-PSMA-617 radioisotope
- Any implant, foreign body, 3T MRI incompatible device or other contraindication to MRI imaging
- Does not fulfill PBS requirements for bevacizumab
- Women lactating, pregnant or of child baring potential who are not willing to avoid pregnancy during the study
