Brief Summary

BIOPSTAGE is a prospective, non-randomized, diagnostic, multi-cohort investigational study to evaluate the impact of pelvic Multi-parametric 3-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (mp-3TMRI) and whole-body 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT for diagnosis of clinically-significant prostate cancer and pre-surgical staging.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • sensitivity of both 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT and mp-3TMRI imaging

    sensitivity of both 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT and mp-3TMRI imaging will be calculated as the ratio between the number of positive cases at 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT or mp-3TMRI and number of patients who underwent to these exams

    up to 36 months

  • specificity of both 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT and mp-3TMRI imaging

    specificity will be calculated considering negative cases at 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT or mp-3TMRI and number of patients who underwent to these exams

    up to 36 months

  • Positive predictive value of both 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT and mp-3TMRI imaging

    Positive predictive value will be calculated considering the ratio between positive patient at 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT/mp-3TMRI confirmed as positive throughout biopsy and overall positive patient at 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT/mp-3TMRI

    up to 36 months

  • negative predictive value of both 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT and mp-3TMRI imaging

    negative predictive value will be calculated considering the ratio between negative patient at 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT/mp-3TMRI confirmed as negative throughout biopsy and overall negative patient at 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT/mp-3TMRI

    up to 36 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of adverse events

    up to 30 days following study procedures

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Cohort 1 - Biopsy guidance in clinically-suspected PCa
  • \. Men aged 45 to 75 years old with clinically-suspected PCa candidated for either initial or repeat TRUS-guided prostate biopsy, meeting any of the following criteria:
  • a) Abnormal PSA metrics, defined as follows:
  • A rising and/or persistently elevated serum PSA (i.e PSA \> 2.5ng/ml for men in the age group comprising 60 to 75 years old; PSA \> 3.0ng/ml for men in the age group comprising 45 to 60 years old) and at least one of the following PSA-based metrics:
  • i. Percent free PSA (%fPSA) \< 25% with PSA range 4-10ng/ml (NCCN); ii. PSA velocity (PSAvel) \>0.35 ng/mL/y; iii. PSA density (PSAden) \> 0.25ng/mL/cc iv. PSA \> 10ng/ml, 50% risk of PCa (EAU) b) Suspicious digital rectal examination (DRE), 5-30% risk of PCa; c) Prostate Cancer Gene 3 (PCA3) \> 35; d) Suspicious findings on first-round biopsy: i. A few Atypical Glands immediately adjacent to HG-PIN, 50% risk of PCa; ii. Atypical Small Acinar Proliferation, 40% of PCa; iii. Multifocal High-Grade Prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HG-PIN), 30% ; iv. Intraductal carcinoma as solitary finding, 90% of PCa;
  • Cohort 2 - Biopsy guidance on Active Surveillance
  • Histologically-proven adenocarcinoma of the prostate;
  • Age ≥ 18
  • Men should be fit for curative treatment;
  • Clinical stage T1c or T2;
  • Gleason score 3+3=6;
  • One or two biopsy cores invaded with prostate cancer:
  • PSA density (PSA D) less than 0.2;
  • PSA-level at diagnosis ≤ 10 ng/mL;
  • Cohort 3a - Pre-surgical TNM staging in high-risk prostate cancer
  • +18 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • The participant may not enter the study if ANY of the following apply:
  • Hormone androgen deprivation therapy of any type within 6 months prior to enrollment.
  • Prior pelvic radiotherapy;
  • Sickle cell disease;
  • Insufficient renal function (eGFR \< 30 mL/min/1.73 m2);
  • Hip prosthesis, vascular grafting or other conditions affecting imaging;
  • Contraindication to MRI, including but not restricted to: pacemaker or other electronic im-plants, known metal in the orbit, MR incompatible surgical or cerebral aneurysm clips, shrapnel, tattoos, non-removable body piercings (relative contraindications);
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic com-position to 68Ga-PSMA or Gadolinium-based contrast agents used in the study.
