68Ga-RM2 for PET/CT of Gastrin Releasing Peptide Receptor (GRPr) Expression in Prostate Cancer

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Interventions
Radiation: 68Ga-RM2 (RM2)
Device: PET/CT Scan
Registration Number
NCT02559115
Lead Sponsor
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if a new diagnostic research agent named 68Ga-RM2 can show prostate cancer on a PET/CT scan. 68Ga-RM2 stands for Galium-68 labeled DOTA-4-amino-1-carboxymethylpiperidine-D-Phe-Gln-Trp-Ala-Val-Gly-His-Sta-Leu-NH2. This study is being done because there are unmet medical needs to improve the current ways of detecting prostate cancers before surgery.

GroupInterventionDescription
PET/CT imaging with 68Ga-RM2PET/CT ScanThe intervention is the administration of a single dose of 150-200 MBq 68Ga-RM2 (mass \<= 30 μg) for imaging purposes. This will be followed by a 30-40 min PET/CT study after a waiting period of 60 min (+/- 10 min). Prior clinical experience suggests that imaging can be performed within 1 hour post injection (27, 28). MR imaging and prostatectomy will be performed as standard of care at MSKCC.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Localizing Tumorswithin two weeks prior to the planned prostatectomy

Localization will be defined using a total of 12 regions within the prostate: right and left base, midgland and apex in both peripheral and transition zones. The uptake on each region will be assessed by a radiologist blinded to standard of care imaging and clinical characteristics. Histopathological confirmation will be used as the gold standard.
