Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is an Investigator Initiated, non-commercial, single center, non-randomized, single arm, open label pilot study on 194 patients. The patients are affected by prostate cancer but in two different clinical settings. The first group is characterized by patients who are going to be operated of radical prostatectomy and they will undergo the study imaging preoperatively. The second group experiences biochemical relapse after primary treatment.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Novel, sensitive tools, such as 68Ga-PSMA PET imaging, have great potential for very early disease detection and open the possibility of early curative local salvage treatment (with surgery, radiotherapy or a combination of both). This project will moreover provide important insights into the biodistribution and dosimetry of 68Ga-PSMA, opening possibilities of 90-Yttrium or 177-Lutetium-PSMA-based radionuclidetherapy of patients with metastatic PC in the future.

The study consists of 2 work units (WU):

Work-unit 1: Patients at high risk for nodal involvement prior to radical prostatectomy with extended lymph node dissection Work-unit 2: Biochemical recurrence after initial treatment with curative intent

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

Work-unit 1

* age \< 75 years of age, with histologically proven invasive adenocarcinoma of the prostate
* a risk of equal or more than 5% of lymph node metastasis (intermediate to high risk disease), according to the Briganti nomogram (1)
* scheduled to undergo radical prostatectomy with extended lymph node dissection

Work-unit 2

* histologically proven diagnosis of prostate cancer
* biochemical relapse (two consecutive PSA≥0.2 ng/ml) of prostate cancer following radical local prostate treatment
* WHO performance state 0-1
* age \> 18 years old

Exclusion Criteria

Work-unit 1

* involvement of pelvic lymph nodes assessed by multi-parametric MRI
* evidence for bone metastasis assessed by bone scan (if PSA \> 20 ng/ml)
* WHO performance status \> 2
* previous pelvic irradiation or radical prostatectomy.
* other malignancy except adequately treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin diagnosed during the last 5 years
* any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; those conditions should be discussed with the patient before registration in the trial.

Work-unit 2

* serum testosterone level \<50ng/ml
* symptomatic metastases
* local relapse on MRI
* PSA rise while on active treatment with LHRH-agonist, LHRH-antagonist, Anti-androgen, Complete androgen blockade, Oestrogen-antioestrogen therapy
* previous treatment with cytotoxic agent for PCa
* treatment during the past month with products known to influence PSA levels (e.g. fluconazole, finasteride, corticosteroids,…)
* disorder precluding understanding of trial information or informed consent
