Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of androgen deprivation therapy, a treatment commonly prescribed in prostate cancer patients, on the effectiveness of medical imaging techniques. Who is it for? You may be eligible for this study if you are an adult who has been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. Study details: Participants are required to undergo 2 PSMA Scans, the 1st within 28days prior to starting treatment with the medication enzalutamide and the 2nd 14 days after starting enzalutamide. Participants will be required to undergo a physical exam with the Dr which will include a blood test to assess kidney function. The outcome of this study will have important implications for the diagnostic and therapeutic management of metastatic prostate cancer.
Interventions
68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT scan will be administered in a registered nuclear medicine department by a nuclear med physician. This scan is considered standard of care for patients and this trial requires 1 additional scan under the same conditions as a standard PSMA scan. All participants are will be undergoing enzalutamide as standard of care. PSMA scans takes approx. 2-3 hours to complete. The second scan will be 7 weeks from the baseline scan. The Enzalitamide dosing is based on clinician choice (medical oncologist) Enzalutimdie will commence at Week 5 (4 weeks post the 1st PSMA Scan) will continue throughout study as prescribed by treating Med Onc.
