Prostate Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
In France, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men over 50 years of age (nearly 50,000 new cases per year) and is the second most common cause of cancer death in men (approximately 9,000 deaths per year). Although mortality has been declining since the end of the 1990s (about 7%/year), about 30 to 35% of them will have a biological recurrence. Accurate assessment of local, regional and distant spread of the disease is therefore needed to design optimal personalised care for each patient, either curative or palliative. Currently, in France, recommended disease assessment includes bone scintigraphy and Abdomino-Pelvic Magnetic Resonance Imaging. However, conventional imaging has limited performance with regard to lymph node extension. Node dissection is the best way to assess node status. Currently, no imaging exam allows this level of accuracy. Recently, molecular imaging has emerged as a promising tool to improve the initial extensional assessment of prostate cancer. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a transmembrane glycoprotein, specific to the prostate, which is over-expressed on the surface of prostate cancer cells. Recent studies of PSMA PET/CT as part of the initial extension assessment of prostate cancer report superior diagnostic performance in terms of sensitivity and specificity compared to conventional tests, as well as an impact of PSMA PET/CT on patient management.
Interventions
DIAGNOSTIC_TESTPSMA PET/CT
The PSMA PET/CT will be performed on an outpatient in the nuclear medicine department of the Brest University Hospital (CHRU). For this exam, the administration of 2-4 MBq/kg of 68Ga-HBED-CC-PSMA or 1,8-2,2 MBq/kg of 68Ga-PSMA-11 will be performed to patient by a single intravenous injection.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic performance of PSMA PET/CT | Month 12 | The main objective of the trial is to determine the diagnostic performance of Positron Emission Tomography of Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen Ligands (PET-PSMA) for the detection of lymph node metastases in intermediate- and high-risk prostate neoplasia, whose radical treatment by prostatectomy is selected by the multidisciplinary consultation meeting. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Impact of PSMA-PET in the surgical strategy of lymph node dissection. | Month 12 | To assess the impact of PSMA PET/CT in the surgical strategy of lymph node dissection, assessing the number of patients in whom lymph node dissection will be extended to a resectable PSMA-PET/CT suspicious area at the prostatic level. |
| Comparison of prostate tumor index lesion location on PSMA PET/CT and MRI with prostate histopathology after prostatectomy. | Month 12 | To compare MRI and PSMA PET/CT with histopathology at the prostate level (Pathological focal uptake detected on the 3 examinations (PSMA PET/CT and MRI vs. pathology = gold standard) for each of the 6 following prostate locations: base, middle, apex (right and left)). |
| Diagnostic performance of PSMA PET/CT for distant metastasis | Month 12 | To determine the positive predictive value of PSMA PET/CT to detect distant metastases in patients whose radical treatment by prostatectomy is selected by the multidisciplinary consultation meeting. |
| 68Ga-HBED-CC-PSMA and et du 68Ga- PSMA-11 tolerance | Month 12 | The 68Ga-HBED-CC-PSMA tolerance and the et du 68Ga- PSMA-11 tolerance will be evaluated recording serious adverse events and adverse events during follow-up. |
