study of diagnostic performance of [18f]ctt1057 for psma-positive tumors detection

Conditions: Prostatic Neoplasms; Prostate Cancer

Summary: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of \[18f\]ctt1057 as a pet imaging agent for detection and localization of psma positive tumors using histopathology as standard of truth (sot). tissue specimens from both the primary tumor and pelvic lymph nodes dissected during surgery from patients with newly-diagnosed high-risk prostate cancer (pca) were used for the histopathology assessments.

this was a multi-center, single-arm, open-label prospective study to evaluate the diagnostic performance of vidoflufolastat (18f) as a positron emission tomography (pet) imaging agent for detection and localization of prostate specific membrane antigen (psma) positive tumors, using histopathology as standard of truth (sot). in newly diagnosed high-risk prostate cancer (pca) patients. a total of 195 participants were enrolled to ensure that at least 156 participants were evaluable for the co-primary endpoints. surgery was performed after vidoflufolastat (18f) positron emission tomography/computerized tomography (pet/ct) scan. the co-primary endpoints of patient-level sensitivity and region-level specificity were assessed by comparing the central reading results of the vidoflufolastat (18f) pet/ct scan to the local histopathology results in the dissected tissue specimens, i.e. both the primary tumor and the dissected pelvic lymph nodes (plns).

Eligibility criteria:
