Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to look at whether F-18 Fluciclovine (i.e. Axumin) is better or as good as F-18 Sodium Fluoride (F-18 NaF) when looking at bone disease from prostate cancer. Axumin is a radioactive agent used on a positron/computed tomography (PET/CT) camera to look for prostate cancer in general.

Detailed description

The study will assess the diagnostic performance of \[F-18\] fluciclovine PET/CT compared to \[F-18\] NaF PET/CT as the reference standard. Each bone lesion identified on \[F-18\] NaF PET/CT will be compared with the level of \[F-18\] fluciclovine uptake The primary objective is to assess \[F-18\] fluciclovine efficacy in the evaluation of osseous metastatic disease in prostate cancer on a lesion-by-lesion comparison with \[F-18\] NaF as a the reference standard.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of lesions seen by [F-18] NaF PET/CT which are also seen by [F-18] fluciclovine PET/CTAt time of scan, up to 60 minutes per scanAgreement of imaging methods as measured by number of lesions seen by \[F-18\] NaF PET/CT which are also seen by \[F-18\] fluciclovine PET/CT broken down by diagnostic score on a lesion-by-lesion basis (1 to 5) 1. Definitely benign 2. Probably benign 3. Equivocal 4. Probably malignant 5. Definitely malignant
SensitivityAt time of scan, up to 60 minutes per scanAccuracy of \[F-18\] fluciclovine PET/CT compared to \[F-18\] NaF PET/CT evaluated via sensitivity Sensitivity is the number of true positives (TP) divided by the sum of TP and false negatives (FN): Sensitivity = TP / (TP+FN)
SpecificityAt time of scan, up to 60 minutes per scanAccuracy of \[F-18\] fluciclovine PET/CT compared to \[F-18\] NaF PET/CT evaluated via specificity Specificity is the number of true Negatives (TN) divided by the sum of TN and false positives (FP): Sensitivity = TN / (TN+FP)
Positive Predictive Value (PPV)At time of scan, up to 60 minutes per scanAccuracy of \[F-18\] fluciclovine PET/CT compared to \[F-18\] NaF PET/CT evaluated via PPV PPV is the number of true TP divided by the sum of TP and FP: Sensitivity = TP / (TP+FP)
Negative Predictive Value (NPV)At time of scan, up to 60 minutes per scanAccuracy of \[F-18\] fluciclovine PET/CT compared to \[F-18\] NaF PET/CT evaluated via NPV NPV is the number of true TN divided by the sum of TN and FN: Sensitivity = TN / (TN+FN)
Area under the curve (AUC)At time of scan, up to 60 minutes per scanAccuracy of \[F-18\] fluciclovine PET/CT compared to \[F-18\] NaF PET/CT evaluated via AUC using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves
