About this trial

The purpose of this research study is to test the efficacy of ADT on prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), a marker of prostate cancer, before and after scheduled ADT. Follow up will be 48 months your prostate removal to do a blood test and log if any new or worsening symptoms have occurred as a part of your standard-of-care (SOC).

Evidence of metastatic disease involving bone, viscera, or lymph nodes superior to the bifurcation of the common iliac arteries on PSMA PET/CT

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Leuprolide

    Drug

    22.5 mg IM every 3 months × 2 doses

  • Degarelix

    Drug

    240 mg SC loading dose, then 80 mg SC q28 days × 6 months

  • Relugolix

    Drug

    360 mg PO Day 1, then 120 mg PO daily × 6 months

  • Triptorelin

    Drug

    11.25 mg IM every 3 months × 2 doses

  • Bicalutamide

    Drug

    Given only with leuprolide or triptorelin; 50 mg PO daily for 30 days

  • 18-F Flotufolastat PSMA PET

    Diagnostic test

    296 MBq (8mCi) administered as an intravenous bolus injection prior to PSMA PET scan. May be administered diluted in normal saline (NS) or undiluted. The maximum volume of undiluted 18F-flotufolastat is 5mL. After administration, a flush with 0.9% NS will be given to ensure full delivery of the dose.

  • Radical prostatectomy

    Procedure/Surgery

    Surgery to occur 14 to 90 days after the pre-surgery visit. All RPs will be performed per institutional standard of care by fellowship-trained urologic oncologists, with an extended pelvic lymph-node dissection when clinically indicated.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Objective response rate (ORR) based on PSMA PET

ORR is based on changes in maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) on PSMA PET/CT imaging pre- and post-ADT. Complete response (CR) is defined as resolution of all PSMA-avid lesions. Partial response (PR) is defined as \>30% decrease in SUVmax. Progressive disease (PD) is defined as \>30% increase in SUVmax or presence of new PSMA-avid lesions. Stable disease (SD) is defined as not meeting criteria for CR, PR, or PD. ORR is defined as the proportion of participants having CR or PR after ADT based on SUVmax.

Time frame
6 Months
2

ORR based on Response Evaluation Criteria in PSMA Imaging (RECIP 1.0)

ORR in this endpoint is based on RECIP 1.0 criteria. Complete response (CR) is defined as disappearance of all PSMA-avid disease. Partial response (PR) is defined as ≥30% increase in total tumor volume. Progressive disease (PD) is defined as ≥20% increase in total tumor volume or presence of new PSMA-avid lesions. Stable disease (SD) is defined as not meeting criteria for CR, PR, or PD. ORR is defined as the proportion of participants having CR or PR after ADT based on RECIP 1.0.

Time frame
6 Months

Secondary outcomes

1

Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) response rate

Defined as the proportion of participants with a PSA reduction of at least 50% (PSA50) immediately prior to RP compared with baseline PSA after treatment with ADT.

Time frame
36 Months
2

Biochemical recurrence-free survival (BCR) with testosterone recovery

BCR with testosterone recovery is defined as the time from ADT initiation to PSA ≥0.2 ng/mL after RP once testosterone has normalized. Median times will be calculated for responders (CR and PR) and non-responders (SD and PD).

Time frame
36 months
