Investigating Ga-68 PSMA-11 PET/CT for Glioma Recurrence

This study is looking at a special type of scan called gallium-68 (Ga-68) PSMA-11 PET/CT. It's for people with Grade 3 or 4 glioma whose cancer might be coming back or getting worse after initial treatment. Doctors often use imaging to check on glioma, but it can be hard to tell if changes on scans are due to the cancer returning or just side effects from past treatments. This study wants to see if the Ga-68 PSMA-11 PET/CT scan can help tell the difference. The main goal is to check the safety of the scan and how well people tolerate it. About 25 people will participate in this study.

Study design
This is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive a specific intervention (the PET/CT scan). It aims to enroll 25 participants with Grade 3 or 4 glioma.
What's involved
You would undergo a PET/CT scan, which involves receiving Ga-68 PSMA-11 contrast dye intravenously (into a vein). Your electronic health records will also be reviewed.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Safety and tolerability will be measured up to 24 hours after the injection and up to 60 days for the scan's tolerability.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Age ≥ 18 years.
History of World Health Organization (WHO) grade III or IV infiltrating glioma previously treated with first-line chemoradiotherapy.
MRI findings compatible with contrast-enhancing recurrent infiltrating glioma.
Planned biopsy or resection of suspected disease recurrence.
Willing to sign release of information for any radiation and/or follow-up records.
Ability to provide informed written consent.
Ability to provide tissue for mandatory correlative research component.

Exclusion

Unable to undergo a PSMA PET/CT scan (e.g. body habitus, claustrophobia).
Any of the following:
Pregnant women
Nursing women
Men or women of childbearing potential unwilling to employ adequate contraception
  • Adverse Events (safety and tolerability)Up to 24 hours after 68Ga-PSMA-11 injection

    Assessed as the percentage of patients who experience Grade 3 or higher adverse effects deemed to be at least possibly related to PSMA-11. Adverse effects will be assessed according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.

  • Tolerability of PSMA positron emission tomography scanUp to 60 days

    Will assess any issues in completion of the PSMA positron emission tomography scans in these patients and summarize those in a descriptive manner.
