NCT02699424

Brief Summary

This is an open-label, phase II trial in patients with PSA recurrence after prostatectomy. Patients entering the study will all receive initial 50 Gray (Gy) radiotherapy (25 x 2Gy) to the prostate bed and thereafter be classified as either responders or non-responders depending on PSA response at fifth week of radiotherapy. A 68-Ga- PSMA-PET is done before start of radiotherapy, and analyzed before fifth treatment week in order to identify cancer lesions in patients with poor PSA response. Patients with PSA response after 5 weeks of radiotherapy will not receive any subsequent therapy, whilst patients with poor PSA response may be in need for additional therapy such as radiotherapy to lymph node metastases and/or boost fractions to local recurrence. Patients with more than 3 lymph node metastases or distant metastases will not receive any more radiotherapy, but individualized systemic therapy will be started.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Tumor detection rate measured with Ga-PSMA-PET in non-responders versus responders.

    PSA response is evaluated after 5 weeks of radiotherapy. Ga-PSMA-PET at baseline is compared in the PSA-responder group as compared to the non-responder group

  • Assessment of PSA response during radiotherapy.

    Is evaluated once weekly during radiotherapy, duration of radiotherapy is 35 days; 70 Gy in 2 Gy fractions.

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Assessment of PSA response post treatment.

    Is evaluated at 6, 12, 24, and 60 months post-treatment.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexmale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histological evidence of prostate cancer in the radical prostatectomy specimen
  • At least 2 rising PSA values, of which the last ≥ 0.15 ng/ml
  • Tumor, regional nodes, metastasis (TNM): any T, N0/x, M0/x
  • Age: 18 years or older
  • World Health Organization (WHO) performance status 0-1
  • Life expectancy \> 10 years
  • Adequate laboratory findings: hematological: hemoglobin \> 90 g/L (may be transfused to maintain or exceed this level) absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,0 x 109/L, platelets ≥ 75 x 109/L hepatic: bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) ≤ 5 x ULN renal: creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN
  • Signed written informed consent
  • The patient must be able to comply with the protocol

You may not qualify if:

  • Evidence of metastasis on imaging or in specimen (e.g. N1 at lymph-node dissection)
  • Prior or ongoing treatment with hormones (antiandrogens, GnRH)
  • Prior radiotherapy to the pelvis
  • Previous malignancy other than prostate cancer and basalioma the past 5 years.
  • Clinically significant (i.e. active) cardiovascular disease e.g. myocardial infarction (≤ 6 months), unstable angina, New York Heart Association (NYHA) grade III-IV congestive heart failure
  • Severe pulmonary disease e.g. pulmonary fibrosis
  • Any other serious or uncontrolled illness which in the opinion of the investigator makes it undesirable for the patient to enter the trial
