Optimizing Timing of rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) for Assessing Site(s) of Recurrent Disease Following Radical Prostatectomy

All men following Radical Prostatectomy (RP) at NYU Langone Health undergo routine prostate specific antigen (PSA) testing in order to identify disease recurrence. By consensus, a BCR following RP occurs once the PSA > 0.2 ng/ml/ Biochemical recurrence often develops years prior to clinical evidence of disease recurrence. Early identification of the site(s) of disease recurrence enables early salvage intervention. Men will be eligible for the study at the point in time their post-prostatectomy PSA level first becomes >0.2 ng/ml. Only those patients with rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) identifiable disease (local, nodal or systemic) will be offered salvage intervention per standard of care. All patients with a negative initial rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) scan will undergo a second scan when the PSA is > 0,5 ng/ml or one year after the initial PET study. The salvage interventions will be at the discretion of the investigator. The study will compare the diagnostic yield of the first and second rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) studies.

Inclusion criteria

Eligible patients will include all men between age 18 -100 years old,-that have had RP, at the first point in time the PSA > 0.2 ng/ml.

  • Any contraindication for MRI imaging.

Treatment and study plan

18F-Labeled Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Diagnostic Agent

Drug

Under development for the diagnosis of prostate cancer by Blue Earth Diagnostics. rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) will be administered intravenously as a single-dose injection. The molecular structure of the drug substance comprises a prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) binding motif, a peptide spacer, an 18F-radiolabeled silicon fluoride acceptor moiety and a gallium chelator complex.

Other names: rhPSMA-7.3 (18F)

PET MRI Imaging

Device

rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) PET MRI imaging will be conducted once at baseline and a second time within one year of the initial scan.

Primary outcomes

  1. Positive PCa Screens at Baseline

    Time frame: Baseline

    This measurement will calculate the number of participants who screen positive for prostate cancer (PCa) at the baseline rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) scan.

  2. Positive PCa Screens at Second Scan Visit

    Time frame: Up to Month 24

    This measurement will calculate the number of participants who screen positive for prostate cancer (PCa) at the second rhPSMA-7.3 (18F) scan.
