Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: i)Evaluate the lesion-specific expression of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and fibroblast activation-protein (FAP) in metastatic prostate cancer;Secondary Objective: ii)Evaluate the potential of fluorine-18 labeled FAP inhibitor (FAPI)-74 positron-emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to detect prostate cancer metastases. iii)Evaluate the diagnostic accuracy between fluorine-18 labeled DCFPyL PSMA and FAPI-74 using PET/CT imaging iv)Evaluate the whole tracer-based metastatic load by calculating DCFPyL PSMA and FAPI-74 activated tumor volumes (TV) v)Evaluate the expression of PSMA and FAPI at the tissue level from the original tumor and metastases using immunohistochemistry. vi)Evaluate the effect of clinical characteristics (prostate-specific antigen (PSA) doubling time, type of metastases [bone/node/soft tissue], previous therapy) on the uptake of DCFPyL and FAPI-74 to the individual metastases. vii)Observe vital signs and adverse events (AE) during imaging ;Primary end point(s): i)The proportion of subject with PSMA- and/or FAPI-positive metastases and number of metastases.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT and 18F- DCFPyL PET/CT imaging.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): i) The proportion of detected metastasis with 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT compared to the 18F- DCFPyL PET/CT. ii) The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) values of 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT and 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT in detecting metastatic subjects ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT and 18F- DCFPyL PET/CT imaging.
