This phase I trial studies the side effects of 68GA-PSMA-11 PET imaging in patients with prostate cancer that has come back (recurrent). Gallium (68Ga) is a radiotracer that binds to a molecule, PSMA, that is found in abundance on most prostate cancer cells. PSMA is short for ‘prostate specific membrane antigen’. Diagnostic procedures, such as 68GA-PSMA-11 PET imaging, may help measure a patient's response to earlier treatment, and may help plan the best treatment for prostate cancer.
Study sponsor and potential other locations can be found on ClinicalTrials.gov for NCT04216134.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To provide clinical access to and assess the safety of the investigational agent Gallium Ga 68-labeled prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-11 (68Ga-PSMA-11) positron emission tomography (PET) at City of Hope National Medical Center for patients co-enrolled on a treatment trial.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive gallium Ga 68-labeled PSMA-11 intravenously (IV) over less than 1 minute, and then undergo PET over 60 minutes.
After completion of study, patients are followed up at 1-3 days, and then at 3 weeks.
