Trial Outcomes & Findings for 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT in Detecting Prostate Cancer Recurrence in Patients With Elevated PSA After Initial Treatment (NCT NCT02673151)

NCT ID: NCT02673151

Last Updated: 2022-01-13

Results Overview

Participants had suspected prostate cancer recurrence, and were evaluated with 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and by conventional methodologies, eg, histopathology/biopsy and/or conventional imaging. The outcome will be reported as the percentage of participants for whom the 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scan was positive (confirmed by conventional methodologies) or negative (not confirmed by conventional methodologies). The outcome is reported as the number of participants without dispersion. Up to 1 year was allowed for result by the conventional methodology.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: up to 12 months

68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT sensitivity and specificity were assessed by comparing 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scan results with conventional imaging follow-up and/or histopathology/biopsy within the following 1 year. Sensitivity is a percentage that estimates, within a group of participants, the proportion within that group that truly has a disease or condition. Specificity is a percentage that estimates, within a group of participants, the proportion within that group that truly does not have the disease or condition. The outcome is reported as the point estimates for sensitivity and specificity, given as percentages representing agreement between the 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scan result and the conventional assessment, and the 95% CI. A higher point estimate represents better agreement between the methodologies.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: up to 12 months

Positive predictive value (PPV) is the probability that participants with a positive screening test truly have the disease, and negative predictive value (NPV) is the probability that participants with a negative screening test truly do not have the disease. Predictive Value for 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT was assessed by evaluating scans of the prostate, pelvic lymph nodes, paraaortic lymph nodes, mediastinal lymph nodes, bone, and lung. The outcome is reported as the probability as a percentage and the 95% CI.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: up to 12 months

Scan quality was assessed by sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) determinations for the 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scans in participants stratified by prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level in ng/mL. Stratification levels were as follows. * 0.2 to \< 0.5 * 0.5 to \< 1.0 * 1.0 to \< 2.0 * 2.0 to \< 5.0 * ≥ 5.0, The outcome is expressed as the Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, and NPV values observed for the PSA level strata, with 95% confidence interval.
