Evaluation of the Concordance Between Pre-therapy Dosimetry Performed From 68Ga-PSMA-11 Dynamic PET and Post-treatment Dosimetry of 177Lu-PSMA-617 Vectorized Internal Radiotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Prostate Cancer Resistant to Hormonal Castration.
35 participantsStarted 2024-01-31
Plain-language summary
Patients undergo three diagnostic PET scans: 18F-FDG PET scan / 18F-Choline PET scan and 68Ga-PSMA PET scan. Following the diagnostic PET scans, and if patients' eligibility for 177Lu-PSMA-617 IVR treatment is confirmed, SPECT acquisitions will be performed during the first treatment course at 5h, 24h, 4 days and 8 days for dosimetric control.
The patient will then return to the nuclear medicine department to undergo SPECT/CT (3 FOV) acquisitions using the same methods as those presented above and recommended in the standard management at : D+24h post-injection, D+4d post-injection and D+8d post-injection No further research-specific acts or procedures will be performed at the end of the first treatment course.
Continuity of treatment will be carried out in accordance with standard management and treatment requirements and modalities, as will clinical, biological and radiological follow-up.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients over 18 with histologically proven metastatic prostate cancer treated with taxane chemotherapy plus at least one second-generation hormone therapy and resistant to hormonal castration (eligibility criterion for 177Lu-PSMA IVR treatment).
* Patient referred to CGFL for standard disease management with indication for 18F-FDG PET, 18F-Choline PET and 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET to validate patient's eligibility for 177Lu-PSMA-617 IVR treatment.
* ECOG ≤ 2
* Life expectancy ≥ 6 months
* No unacceptable medical or radiological risk for isolation in a nuclear medicine therapy unit.
* Patient informed about the study, able to understand the study constraints and sign the consent form.
* Patient affiliated to the social security system or equivalent
Exclusion Criteria:
* Inability of the patient to maintain a lying position, without moving, for more than 1 hour (1 hour 20 minutes of acquisition for the dynamic PET acquisition specific to the GaLuPro study).
* Allergy to 68Ga-PSMA-11 or 177Lu-PSMA-617
* Contraindications to receiving 177Lu-PSMA IVR treatment and/or performing the imaging tests required by the protocol (patient with pacemaker or defibrillator).
* Urinary tract obstruction or hydronephrosis. Patients with a diagnosis or high risk of urinary retention and/or fitted with a urinary catheter and/or with incontinence making urine collection impossible or PET examinations impossible.
* Patient refusal to participate in study
* Impossibility for the pati…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
