- Registration Number
- NCT02391025
- Lead Sponsor
- Rahul Aggarwal
- Brief Summary
This is a single center, pilot, cross-sectional imaging study investigating the use of gallium-68 citrate PET in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who are planning to undergo a metastatic tumor biopsy on protocol NCT02432001 (CC#125519).
The study population will consist of participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who are undergoing a metastatic tumor biopsy as part of clinical protocol NCT02432001 (CC#125519), with evidence of resistance to androgen signaling inhibition.
- Detailed Description
Primary Objective:
I. To determine the association between maximum average of standard uptake value (SUVmax-ave) of target metastatic lesions on gallium-68 citrate PET with MYC amplification determined from analysis of circulating tumor DNA.
Secondary Objectives:
I. To determine the accuracy rate, sensitivity, specificity of gallium citrate PET in the detection of metastatic lesions as compared to standard staging scans including cross-sectional imaging of the abdomen/pelvis and whole body bone scan.
II. To determine the optimal dose of gallium-68 citrate and timing of scan post-injection to maximize tumor-to-background signal.
III. To characterize the safety profile of gallium-68 citrate.
Outline:
The study will involve gallium-68 PET scan obtained on a single day, followed by optional tumor biopsy within 6 weeks of gallium scan. There will be optional follow up gallium-68 citrate PET scan to assess response to treatment that will be completed within 12 weeks of baseline gallium citrate PET.

- Contra-indication to biopsy including uncontrolled bleeding diathesis.
- Platelets >75,000/μl and prothrombin time (PT) or international normalized ratio (INR) and a partial prothrombin time (PTT) < 1.5 times the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) within 14 days prior to biopsy.

Group Intervention Description Gallium-68 citrate, PET Gallium-68 citrate Participants will receive a single scan obtained on a single day, followed by optional tumor biopsy within 6 weeks of scan. There will be optional follow up gallium-68 citrate PET scan to assess response to treatment received outside this study that will be completed within 12 weeks of baseline scan. Gallium-68 citrate, PET Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Participants will receive a single scan obtained on a single day, followed by optional tumor biopsy within 6 weeks of scan. There will be optional follow up gallium-68 citrate PET scan to assess response to treatment received outside this study that will be completed within 12 weeks of baseline scan.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Mean maximum Standardized Uptake Value (SUVmax) Day of imaging (1 day) The mean and standard deviation of SUVmax of gallium-68 citrate (across all metastatic lesions per participant) will be reported.
Mean maximum Standardized Uptake Value (SUVmax-ave) Day of imaging (1 day) The mean and standard deviation of SUVmax-ave of gallium-68 citrate across all participants in the study cohort will be descriptively reported.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Correlation between SUVmax and MYC gene expression Day of imaging (1 day) For participants who undergo optional tumor biopsy, with evaluable RNA sequencing data: Correlation between SUVmax on Gallium-68 Citrate PET and MYC gene expression level, reported as the Pearson correlation coefficient. The coefficient correlation has a value between +1 and -1, where 1 is total positive linear correlation, 0 is no linear correlation, and -1 is total negative linear correlation.
Correlation between SUVmax and transferrin receptor gene expression Day of imaging (1 day) For participants who undergo optional tumor biopsy, with evaluable RNA sequencing data: Correlation between SUVmax on Gallium-68 Citrate PET and transferrin receptor gene expression level, reported as the Pearson correlation coefficient. The coefficient correlation has a value between +1 and -1, where 1 is total positive linear correlation, 0 is no linear correlation, and -1 is total negative linear correlation.
Mean SUVmax-ave percent change from baseline Up to 12 weeks For participants who undergo optional follow up gallium-68 citrate PET scan, the mean percent change from baseline in SUVmax-ave will be descriptively reported.
Sensitivity of gallium-68 PET Day of imaging (1 day) Using as a cut-off to define a positive lesion on gallium-68 citrate PET as a lesion with SUV at least 1.5 times higher than mediastinal blood pool, the sensitivity value of gallium-68 PET will be descriptively reported on a lesion-per-lesion basis, using as reference standard staging scans including CT or MRI of the chest/abdomen/pelvis and whole body bone scan.
Specificity of gallium-68 PET Day of imaging (1 day) Using as a cut-off to define a positive lesion on gallium-68 citrate PET as a lesion with SUV at least 1.5 times higher than mediastinal blood pool, the specificity of gallium-68 PET will be descriptively reported on a lesion-per-lesion basis, using as reference standard staging scans including CT or MRI of the chest/abdomen/pelvis and whole body bone scan.
Positive predictive value (PPV) of gallium-68 PET Day of imaging (1 day) Using as a cut-off to define a positive lesion on gallium-68 citrate PET as a lesion with SUV at least 1.5 times higher than mediastinal blood pool, the positive predictive value of gallium-68 PET will be descriptively reported on a lesion-per-lesion basis, using as reference standard staging scans including CT or MRI of the chest/abdomen/pelvis and whole body bone scan.
Number of participants with reported treatment-emergent adverse events Up to 12 weeks The frequency and severity of adverse events following gallium-68 citrate injection will be descriptively reported, using CTCAE version 4.03.
