This is a diagnostic accuracy prospective, single-centre, open-label, single group assignment interventional study.
Its aim is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in detection of primary tumour and extra prostatic disease (lymph node, soft tissues spread or bone metastases) in men newly diagnosed with Prostate Cancer at Intermediate and High Risk, according to 2019 Prostate Cancer EAU Guidelines Risk Group Stratification (see Study Population paragraph).
The investigators are interested in the possible future role of [68Ga]Ga-labelled PSMA PET/CT as integration to conventional imaging mpMRI (with or without CT of the lower abdomen and Bone scan) in the detection of primary tumor and extra-prostatic disease (lymph node and soft tissues spread or bone metastases).
This is a diagnostic accuracy prospective, single-centre, open-label, single group assignment interventional study.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in detection of primary tumor and extraprostatic disease (lymph node, soft tissues spread or bone metastases) in men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer at intermediate or high-risk.
The secondary objective of this study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT to the diagnostic accuracy of conventional imaging mpMRI (with or without CT of the lower abdomen and Bone scan) in the prostatic bed and extra prostatic disease in men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer at intermediate or high-risk.
To evaluate association between [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT uptake value (SUVmax and SUVmean) and aggressiveness of prostate tumor (e.g. PSA serum level and Gleason Score).

I. Patients with histo-pathological confirmation of PCa with intermediate or high-risk disease according to 2019 Prostate Cancer EAU Guidelines Risk Group Stratification (see Study Population paragraph)

IV. Ability to provide written
Exclusion Criteria:
I. for PET/CT scan: Patients not capable of getting PET study due to weight, claustrophobia, or inability to lay still for the duration of the exam
II. Impaired renal function
III. Impaired liver function: or ALT > 2.5 x
IV. Patients unable to understand the purpose of the study
V. Medical history of allergic reactions or to [68Ga] Ga-PSMA-11 as well as to any or component of the experimental medicinal product
VI. Having partecipated in clinical trial in which the experimental intervention was administered within 30 days (or 5 half-life) from administration the endovenous solution of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.
“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

1.8-2.2 MBq (0.049-0.060 mCi) per kilogram bodyweight will be injected intravenously prior to perform the PET/CT
Diagnostic Test: [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT
1.8-2.2 MBq (0.049-0.060 mCi) per kilogram bodyweight will be injected intravenously prior to perform the PET/CT
Diagnostic accuracy measures (sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values) of [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in detection of primary tumor and extraprostatic disease (lymph node, soft tissues spread or bone metastases).
For the primary objective, the following index test and reference test will be considered: Index test: \[68Ga\]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT performed before treatment. Reference test: clinical, radiological and histo-pathologic assessment, when available, at 12 months followup and up to 24 months after treatment. Two nuclear medicine physicians will review the PET images using PET/CT Software Syngo.via. A PET positive finding for pelvic or retroperitoneal lymph nodes or lymph nodes ≥ 8mm is defined with PSMA uptake equal to or above blood pool and lower than liver. A PET positive finding in lymph nodes of other regions is defined with PSMA uptake equal to or above liver and lower than parotid gland. Any uptake equal to or above parotid gland will be considered positive. The readers will be blinded to clinical and pathologic data, except for the knowledge of diagnosis of biopsy proven prostate cancer.
Time frame: Up to 24 months after treatment
Comparation diagnostic accuracy of the [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT versus the conventional imaging mpMRI (with or without CT of the lower abdomen and Bone scan) in the prostatic bed and extra prostatic disease.
For the secondary objective, the following index test and reference test will be considered: Index test: conventional imaging mpMRI performed before treatment. Reference test: clinical, radiological and histo-pathologic assessment at 12 months follow-up and up to 24 months after treatment. MRI imaging results will be evaluated by two radiologists specializing in body MRI imaging with the PI-RADS version 2 criteria. In addition, for the secondary objective, after testing the assumption of normality with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the metabolic PET parameters (SUV max and SUV mean) will be correlated with PSA serum level, by using the Pearson correlation, and with Gleason score and tumor volume, by using the Spearman correlation.
Time frame: Up to 24 months after treatment
