Prostate Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the sensitivity of PSMA PET/MRI and standard MRI in detecting focal therapy failure in the prostate one year after High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. Specifically, the study aims to evaluate whether PSMA PET/MRI offers a higher sensitivity than MRI alone for identifying recurrence or failure in patients undergoing focal therapy.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Male patients 40-95 years of age with biopsy-confirmed localized prostate cancer. * Grade Group ≥2 (Gleason score 3+4 or higher). * Unifocal disease visible on mpMRI. * Patients undergoing HIFU as part of their standard of care * PSA \<20 ng/mL. * No metastatic disease on PSMA PET/CT * Willingness to comply with follow-up protocols (PSA testing, imaging, biopsies).
Exclusion criteria
* Evidence of metastatic disease on PSMA PET/CT. * Allergy to POSLUMA or gadolinium. * Inability to tolerate MRI due to claustrophobia or posture/back-hip issues.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Sensitivity of PSMA PET/MRI | Month 12 | Sensitivity of PSMA PET/MRI for detecting clinically significant prostate cancer at 12 months post HIFU, defined as the portion of patients with clinically significant cancer on the 12-month biopsy (reference standard) who had a positive PSMA PET/MRI. |
| Oncologic Control | Month 12 | Oncologic control at 12 months, defined as the absence of cancer, determined by the scheduled biopsy at 12 months. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Portion of patients achieving a PSA reduction greater than 50% | Month 3, Month 6, Month 12 | The portion of patients achieving a PSA reduction greater than 50% from pre-HIFU baseline measured at 3 months, 6 months, and every 6 months post-HIFU. |
| Change in IPSS (International Prostate Symptom Score) | Baseline, Month 12 | The IPSS (International Prostate Symptom Score) assesses lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). A total IPSS score of 1-7 is considered mild, 8-19 moderate, and 20-35 severe. |
| Change in SHIM (Sexual Health Inventory for Men) Score | Baseline, Month 12 | The SHIM (Sexual Health Inventory for Men) score measures erectile dysfunction (ED). A SHIM score of 22-25 indicates no ED, 17-21 is mild, 12-16 mild to moderate, 8-11 moderate, and 1-7 severe ED. |
