Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Verify whether the additional use of PET/CT with 18F-fluorocholine in the initial staging of prostate cancer improves the sensitivity in defining the loco-regional disease with respect to CT and bone scan.;Secondary Objective: To show whether the use of PET / CT with 18F-fluorocholine modifies the therapeutic approach regarding the use of surgical treatment and / or systemic therapy, evaluate the toxicity of 18F-fluorocholine and the cost-effectiveness of the additional use of PET / CT with 18F-fluorocholine.;Primary end point(s): sensitivity of PET/TC 18F-fluorocholine in defining the loco-regional disease ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Up to 180 days since randomization | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1) number of patients undergoing surgery or systemic therapy in each study arm 2) toxicity measured with the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4 System 3) costs of diagnostic methods and absolute risk reduction for a futile surgery obtained using PET/TC 18F-fluorocholine;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Up to 180 days since randomization | — |
