Brief summary
This study is investigating a new agent to be used in PET imaging for prostate cancer, called 68Ga-NTA-476. It aims to find out where 68Ga-NTA-476 goes in the body once it is injected into a person and whether there are any side effects or issues with tolerating the compound. This will be compared to an existing imaging compound which is currently used in Australia called 68Ga-PSMA-11. 68Ga-NTA-476 has been developed and tested in the laboratory; however, this is the first time that it will be tested in humans. Who is it for? You may be eligible for this study if you are an adult older than 18 years of age, you have been diagnosed with prostate cancer and do not have any significant other health issues. Study details All participants who choose to participate will complete a Screening Visit to make sure that they meet the eligibility requirements for the study. Procedures completed during this visit will include demographic details, medical history, physical examination, vital signs, ECG, blood samples to check overall health status and a 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET scan. Following confirmation of eligibility, participants will complete an Imaging Day Visit. During this visit, single dose of 68Ga-NTA-476 will be injected via a vein into the body. Following this, PET scans will be completed at about 1 hour and 2-3 hours. Participants will be observed in the clinical for a total of 4 hours to check vital signs and record any side effects. Between 7-9 days after this, a final study visit will be completed. Blood samples will be collected to check overall health status and the research team will check to see if any side effects were experienced. A total of 10 participants will be enrolled in this study at GenesisCare Murdoch in Australia.
Interventions
The novel Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) targeting molecule, NTA-476, is comprised of a small peptide targeting moiety that is attached to a linker and dodecane tetraacetic acid (DOTA) cage which enables chelation of the radionuclide 68Ga for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging.
A single dose of 68Ga-NTA-476 will be administered on Day 1 of the study as an intravenous bolus injection under the supervision of the study Investigator or appropriately qualified delegate. The plan

A single dose of 68Ga-NTA-476 will be administered on Day 1 of the study as an intravenous bolus injection under the supervision of the study Investigator or appropriately qualified delegate. The planned injected activity (IA) of 68Ga-NTA-476 is 1-1.5 MBq/kg. Following administration of 68Ga-NTA-476 participants will complete PET imaging at 60 minutes and 2-3 hours. Each PET scan will take approximately 30-40 minutes. As there is only a single intravenous injection of 68Ga-NTA-476 administered in this study, there are no strategies required to monitor adherence.

Inclusion criteria
1. Willing and able to provide informed consent prior to start of any study procedures and assessments and must be willing to comply with all study procedures. 2. Adult participants at least 18 years of age. 3. Participants with a documented history of histologically confirmed diagnosis of prostate cancer. o Participants must have PSA more than 0.1ng/mL. o Participants on chemotherapy may be approved on a case-by-case basis at the principal investigator's discretion if the last dose of chemotherapy is administered at least 3 weeks prior to receipt of 68Ga-NTA-476, and subsequent dose of chemotherapy are to resume following completion of End of Treatment Visit (EOTV), if it is determined not to put the patient at an increased risk of adverse drug effects and/or interfere with the integrity of study outcome. o Participants on other anti-cancer therapy, such as novel anti-androgen therapy, may be allowed on a case-by-case basis at the principal investigator's discretion, with an agreement of a washout period prior to 68Ga-NTA-476 dosing, if it is determined not to put the patient at an increased risk of adverse drug effects and/or interfere with the integrity of study outcome. 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status equal to or less than 2 5. Participants must have a life expectancy of more than 3 months in the opinion of the Investigator. 6. Male participants who are able to father a child must agree to avoid impregnating a partner and to adhere to a highly effective method of contraception during the study and for 14 days after the last injection of 68Ga-NTA-476. Participants must agree to not donate sperm during the study and for 14 days after the injection of 68Ga-NTA-476.
Exclusion criteria
7. Have any medical condition that would, in the Investigator’s judgment, prevent the participant’s full participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns or compliance with clinical study procedures, including but not limited to participants with severe claustrophobia. 8. Residual toxicity greater than Grade 1 from prior anti-cancer therapy (except alopecia). Participants with greater than Grade 1 toxicity from prior anti-cancer therapy may be approved on a case-by-case basis at the principal investigator's discretion, if it is determined not to put the patient at an increased risk of adverse drug effects and/or interfere with the integrity of study outcome. 9. History of uncontrolled allergic reactions and/or known or expected hypersensitivity to peptide therapeutics, including 68Ga-NTA-476 or any of its excipients. 10. Inadequate organ functions as reflected in laboratory parameters: o Creatinine clearance (calculated using Cockcroft-Gault formula, or measured) less than 60 mL/min or serum creatinine greater than 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) o Platelet count of less than 75 x 10^9/L o Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) less than 1.0 x 10^9/L o Haemoglobin less than 9 g/dL o Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) more than 3 x ULN, or more than 5 x ULN for patients with known liver metastases o Total bilirubin more than 1.5 x ULN, except for patients with documented Gilbert’s syndrome who are eligible if total bilirubin equal to or less than 3 x ULN 11. For participants not taking warfarin or other anticoagulants: international normalised ratio (INR) equal to or more than 1.5 or prothrombin time (PT) equal to or more than 1.5 x ULN; and either partial thromboplastin time or activated partial thromboplastin time (PTT or aPTT) equal to or more than 1.5 x ULN. Participants taking warfarin must be on a stable dose that results in a stable INR less than 3.5. Among participants receiving other anticoagulant therapy, PT or aPTT must be within the intended therapeutic range of the anticoagulant. 12. Major surgery within 28 days prior to the dose of 68Ga-NTA-476. Exceptions may be approved on a case-by-case basis at the principal investigator's discretion, if it is determined not to put the participant at an increased risk of adverse drug effects and/or interfere with the integrity of study outcome. 13. Any uncontrolled intercurrent illness or clinically significant uncontrolled condition(s), including but not limited to active bacterial, fungal, or viral infections requiring systemic therapy.
