Brief Summary

As choline transport and phosphorylation are upregulated in most cancers, including prostate cancer, positron emission tomography (PET) with choline tracers has found widespread use to detect recurrent disease. However, choline metabolism is not increased in a significant number of cases, probably explaining why this imaging method has been reported to be weakly sensitive and specific fro the detection of prostate cancer lesions, especially at low prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. By contrast, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is overexpressed in most prostate cancer, suggesting that 68Ga-labelled PSMA ligands could be superior to choline tracers. A meta-analysis published in 2016 (Perera M. and al.), which included 18 studies, of which five reported histolopathologic correlation data for 68Ga-PSMA PET-positive lesions, indicated favourable sensitivity and specificity profiles of 68Ga-labelled PSMA ligands compared to choline-based PET imaging techniques.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of lesions characteristic for prostate cancer detected by each TEP imaging method, by 68Ga-PSMA-11 and 18F-Fluorocholine

    An experts committee will conduct a confirmatory assessment of all lesions three months after the last PET scan for each patient..

    three months after the last PET exam for each patient

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Count and characterize prostate cancer lesions for each method

    three months after the last PET exam for each patient

  • Number of patients whose diagnosis and/or treatment are impacted by the results of the imaging procedures

    three months after the last PET exam for each patient

  • Sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of each tomography method

    three months after the last PET exam for each patient

  • Number of adverse events and serious adverse events, whether or not related to research

    three months after the last PET exam for each patient

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexmale(Gender-based eligibility)
Gender Eligibility DetailsProstate cancer is an only men disease
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult men ranging in age from 18 to 80
  • Patient who have developed prostate cancer, and underwent radical treatment by prostatectomy or radiotherapy.
  • Rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) after curative treatment of prostate cancer (radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy). Following definitions will apply:
  • Biochemical recurrence =
  • After surgery: two sequential PSA values \>0.2 ng/ml
  • After radiation therapy: PSA increased by 2 ng/ml above nadir value
  • Residual disease =
  • After surgery: positive PSA immediately after surgery or positive surgical margin
  • After radiation therapy: two sequential PSA \>0.2 ng/ml (to avoid false positive)
  • Progressive disease =
  • PSA doubling time ≤ 6 months irrespective of initial PSA value
  • Patients with a positron emission tomography with 18F-Fluorocholine (PET 18F-Fcholine) requested, as part of routine care.
  • Estimated life-expectancy \> 6 months
  • Patients able to come for PET exams
  • Patients affiliated to or beneficiary of a social security plan
  • +4 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Known hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any excipient of the IMP
  • Patients with known allergy to furosemide or sulfonamides. Other contraindications to furosemide do not apply to patients for whom the product will be used as a single dose
  • Patients with a history of malignant pathology (except for basal-cell cutaneous carcinoma)
  • Drug or alcohol dependence, serious current illness, mental disorder or any circumstance which, in the opinion of the investigator, could interfere with the conduct or interpretation of the study
  • Person referred in articles L.1121-7 and L.1121-8 of the Public Health Code:
  • Minor person (non-emancipated)
  • Adult person under legal protection (any form of public guardianship)
  • Adult person incapable of giving consent
  • Person deprived of liberty for judicial or administrative decision, Person under psychiatric care according to articles L. 3212-1 and L. 3213-1.
