Study type
InterventionalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.
- Medical records research — uses historical information collected from medical records of large groups of people to study how diseases progress and which treatments and surgeries work best.

About this study
The primary objective of this study is to provide access to [Ga-68] PSMA-11 imaging (PET/CT or PET/MR) for patients diagnosed with untreated high-risk prostate cancer or biochemically recurrent prostate cancer.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients with high risk prostate cancer may be evaluated with whole body [Ga-68] PSMA-11 PET/CT or PET/MRI in order to determine the presence of local and distant metastases, and to differentiate between oligometastatic disease versus wide-spread metastases, ultimately guiding selection of initial anti-cancer treatment strategy.
- Patients with prostate cancer, who have not received anticancer therapy and who meet at least one of the following criteria for high-risk prostate cancer are eligible for inclusion in this expanded access IND study:
- Serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) concentration of 20 ng/mL or more.
- Pathologic criteria of International Society of Uropathology (ISUP) grade group 3–5:
- ISUP grades 3-5 are equivalent to pathologic Gleason scores of 4+3, 8, 9 or 10.
- Local staging of T3 or worse, indicating that cancer has invaded into tissues outside of the prostate gland, as seen at either CT or MRI.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Those patients with untreated high-risk prostate cancer who may or may not be excluded from access to [Ga-68] PSMA-11 PET include:
- Patients who have clear evidence for distant metastases on imaging and/or biopsy;
- Patients who have suspected metastases on imaging;
- Patients who have not undergone a bone scan plus either CT or MRI;
- Patients who have not undergone a prostate MRI;
- Patients who have Gleason 4+3 pathology;
- Patients who have Gleason 4+3 or 8 pathology;
- Patients who are known to have PSMA negative tumors by histology;
- Patients who have a PSA doubling time > 12 months;
- Patients who have at least one other type of active cancer (not including non-melanoma skin cancer);
- Patients with dementia;
- Patients which a life expectancy less than 6 months.
