Brief summary

This clinical trial examines RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System (RMRS) imaging to the standard of care (SOC) \[18F\]-DCFPyL positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) imaging in patients with prostate cancer. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of a tracer, \[18F\]-DCFPyL, that binds to prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) on tumor cells. These PSMA tumor cells can then be identified on PET imaging. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in patient's body. The RMRS is a imaging-therapy combination system that can plan for and deliver radiation therapy as well perform \[18F\]-DCFPyL PET-CT imaging. Comparing the imaging from the standard of care \[18F\]-DCFPyL-PET-CT with the \[18F\]-DCFPyL imaging from RMRS may help improve the quality of the imaging captured and determine if imaging can be done on the RMRS at the same time as planning for radiation therapy, which would reduce the number of scans needed to plan for radiation for prostate cancer.

Detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To assess imaging performance of the fluorine F 18 piflufolastat (\[18F\]-DCFPyL) PET-CT subsystem on the X1 RMRS to detect lesions (primary and metastatic) in patients with prostate cancer. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE: I. To determine the feasibility of generating a biology-guided radiotherapy (BgRT) plan using X1 RMRS-acquired \[18F\]-DCFPyL PET data derived from the imaging-only session at the studied dose level. OUTLINE: Patients receive \[18F\]-DCFPyL intravenously (IV) and undergo \[18F\]-DCFPyL PET-CT over 30 minutes per standard of care (SOC). Patients with PET avid lesions then undergo a X1 RMRS PET-CT imaging-only session within 120 minutes of injection over 20-35 minutes. After completion of study, patients are followed up within 72 hours.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percent of Cases Where X1 RMRS [18F]-DCFPyL PET Data Can be Used to Generate an Acceptable Biology-guided Radiotherapy (BgRT) PlanUp to 72 hoursThe true positive lesions identified on the X1 PET images will be identified and used for BgRT planning. Simulated planning using the RefleXion treatment planning software will be performed, and the radiation dose to organs at risk calculated. Principal investigator will determine whether this plan is acceptable or not. The percent of cases in which RefleXion \[18F\]-DCFPyL PET data led to an acceptable plan will be recorded (descriptive statistics). Descriptive statistics will be utilized to quantify results. Mean, standard deviation, IQR, and range will be reported for each continuous variable. Frequency and percentage will be reported for categorical variables. Statistical significance will be assessed at the 0.05 level, one-sided.
