Correlation between genomic index lesions and mpMRI and 68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT imaging features in primary prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)- positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT)-imaging of prostate cancer (PCa) are emerging techniques to assess the presence of significant disease and tumor progression. It is not known, however, whether and to what extent lesions detected by these imaging techniques correlate with genomic features of PCa. The aim of this study was therefore to define a genomic index lesion based on chromosomal copy number alterations (CNAs) as marker for tumor aggressiveness in prostate biopsies in direct correlation to multiparametric (mp) MRI and 68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT imaging features. CNA profiles of 46 biopsies from five consecutive patients with clinically high-risk PCa were obtained from radiologically suspicious and unsuspicious areas. All patients underwent mpMRI, MRI/TRUS-fusion biopsy, 68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT and a radical prostatectomy. CNAs were directly correlated to imaging features and radiogenomic analyses were performed. Highly significant CNAs (?10 Mbp) were found in 22 of 46 biopsies. Chromosome 8p, 13q and 5q losses were the most common findings. There was an strong correspondence between the radiologic and the genomic index lesions. The radiogenomic analyses suggest the feasibility of developing radiologic signatures that can distinguish between genomically more or less aggressive lesions. In conclusion, imaging features of mpMRI and 68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT can guide to the genomically most aggressive lesion of a PCa. Radiogenomics may help to better differentiate between indolent and aggressive PCa in the future.

Project description:BackgroundAndrogen deprivation therapy (ADT) remains the standard therapy for patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer (OMPC). Prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PSMA-PET/CT)-based stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is emerging as an alternative option to postpone starting ADT and its associated side effects including the development of drug resistance. The aim of this study was to determine progression free-survival (PFS) and treatment failure free-survival (TFFS) after PSMA-PET/CT-based SBRT in OMPC patients. The efficacy and safety of single fraction radiosurgery (SFRS) and ADT delay were investigated.MethodsPatients with ≤5 metastases from OMPC, with/without ADT treated with PSMA-PET/CT-based SBRT were retrospectively analyzed. PFS and TFFS were primary endpoints. Secondary endpoints were local control (LC), overall survival (OS) and ADT-free survival (ADTFS).ResultsFifty patients with a total of 75 metastases detected by PSMA-PET/CT were analyzed. At the time of SBRT, 70% of patients were castration-sensitive. Overall, 80% of metastases were treated with SFRS (median dose 20 Gy, range: 16-25). After median follow-up of 34 months (range: 5-70) median PFS and TFFS were 12 months (range: 2-63) and 14 months (range: 2-70), respectively. Thirty-two (64%) patients had repeat oligometastatic disease. Twenty-four (48%) patients with progression underwent second SBRT course. Two-year LC after SFRS was 96%. Grade 1 and 2 toxicity occurred in 3 (6%) and 1 (2%) patients, respectively. ADTFS and OS rates at 2-years were 60.5% and 100%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, TFFS significantly improved in patients with time to first metastasis (TTM) >36 months (p = 0.01) and PSA before SBRT ≤1 ng/ml (p = 0.03).ConclusionFor patients with OMPC, SBRT might be used as an alternative to ADT. This way, the start/escalation of palliative ADT and its side effects can be deferred. Metastases treated with PSMA-PET/CT-based SFRS reached excellent LC with minimal toxicity. Low PSA levels and longer TTM predict elongated TFFS.

Project description:Objective:To synthesize 68Ga-Glu-urea-Lys(Ahx)-HBED-CC (68Ga-PSMA-11) with a synthesis module and investigate PET-CT imaging to monitor PSMA expression during prostate cancer (PCa) progression and tumor growth in mice bearing subcutaneous PCa xenografts. Method:The radiochemical purity and stability of??68Ga-PSMA-11 were determined via radio-HPLC. The PCa cell lines of different PSMA expression levels (PC3, VCAP±, CWR22RV1+, and LNCaP++) were selected to mimic the PCa progression. 68Ga-PSMA-11 biodistribution was studied by dissection method and in vivo imaging with micro PET-CT. The expression levels of PSMA in tumor cells and tissues were analyzed by immunofluorescence, flow cytometry, and western blot. The correlation between PSMA expression and radio-uptake was also evaluated. 2-PMPA preadministration served as a block group. Results:The radiochemical purity of??68Ga-PSMA-11 was 99.6 ± 0.1% and stable in vitro for 2?h. The equilibrium binding constant (Kd) of??68Ga-PSMA-11 to LNCaP, CWR22Rv1, PC-3, and VCAP cells was 4.3 ± 0.8?nM, 16.4 ± 1.3?nM, 225.3 ± 20.8?nM, and 125.6 ± 13.1?nM, respectively. Results of tumor uptake (% ID and % ID/g or % ID/cm3) of??68Ga-PSMA-11 in biodistribution and micro PET imaging were LNCaP > CWR22RV1 > PC-3 and VCAP due to different PSMA expression levels. It was confirmed by flow cytometry, western blot, and immunofluorescence. Tumor uptake (% ID/cm3) of??68Ga-PSMA-11 increased with the tumor anatomical volume in quadratic polynomial fashion and reached the peak (when tumor volume was 0.5?cm3) earlier than tumor uptake (% ID). Tumor uptake (% ID/cm3) of??68Ga-PSMA-11 based on functional volume correlated well with the PSMA expression in a linear manner (y = 9.35x + 2.59, R2 = 0.8924, and p < 0.0001); however, low dose 2-PMPA causes rapid renal clearance of increased tumor/kidney uptake of??68Ga-PSMA-11. Conclusions:The 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET-CT imaging could invasively evaluate PSMA expression during PCa progression and tumor growth with % ID/cm3 (based on functional volume) as an important index. Low dose 2-PMPA preadministration might be a choice to decrease kidney uptake of??68Ga-PSMA-11.

Project description:In active surveillance there is significant interest in whether imaging modalities such as multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) or 68Gallium prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computerized tomography (68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT) can improve the detection of progression to clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) and thus reduce the frequency of prostate biopsies and associated morbidity. Recent studies have demonstrated the value of mpMRI in active surveillance; however, mpMRI does miss a proportion of disease progression and thus alone cannot replace biopsy. To date, prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography (PSMA-PET) has shown additive value to mpMRI in its ability to detect prostate cancer (PCa) in the primary diagnostic setting. Our objective is to evaluate the diagnostic utility of PSMA-PET to detect progression to csPCa in active surveillance patients. We will perform a prospective, cross-sectional, partially blinded, multicentre clinical trial evaluating the additive value of PSMA-PET with mpMRI against saturation transperineal template prostate biopsy. Two hundred and twenty-five men will be recruited who have newly diagnosed PCa which is suitable for active surveillance. Following enrolment, patients will undergo a PSMA-PET and mpMRI within 3 months of a repeat 12-month confirmatory biopsy. Patients who remain on active surveillance after confirmatory biopsy will then be planned to have a further mpMRI and PSMA-PET prior to a repeat biopsy in 3-4 years. The primary outcome is to assess the ability of PSMA-PET to detect or exclude significant malignancy on repeat biopsy. Secondary outcomes include (I) assess the comparative diagnostic accuracies of mpMRI and PSMA-PET alone [sensitivity/specificity/negative predictive value (NPV)/positive predictive value (PPV)] to detect progression on biopsy based on predefined histologic criteria for progression; (II) comparison of index lesion identification by template biopsies vs. MRI targeted lesions vs. PSMA targeted lesions; (III) evaluation of concordance of lesions identified on final histopathology and each imaging modality (PSMA-PET and/or mpMRI) in the subset of patients proceeding to RP. The results of this trial will define the role of PSMA-PET in active surveillance and potentially reduce the number of biopsies needed to detect progression to csPCa. The current trial was registered with the ANZCTR on the 3/2/2022 with the trial ID ACTRN12622000188730, it is accessible at https://www.anzctr.org.au/.
