Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The aim of the study is to determine if PET-CT imaging (using contrast recommended in clinical guidelines) is superior to combined bone scan and MRI/CT of the abdomen \& pelvis in detecting the increased incidence of metastasis (nodal/distant outside the pelvis) in men with prostatic carcinoma with mutations in any of the following germline DNA repair genes BRCA1, BRCA2, MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, PMS2, CHEK2, PALB2, ATM.

Arms and outcomes
Arms (1)
- label
- DNA repair gene mutation carriers
- description
- * Newly diagnosed with prostate cancer (any Gleason score, any stage, any PSA) * Biochemically progressing patients who were treated radically with surgery or radiotherapy (more than 6 months ago) and are currently not receiving hormonal treatment or chemotherapy * Patients on active surveillance, with a PSA doubling time of 6 months or less
- interventionNames
- Other: MRI pelvis or CT imaging under clinical management for Pr Ca
- Other: Whole body bone scan imaging
- Other: PET-CT imaging
Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- 1. Sensitivity of FCH-PET-CT scan
- timeFrame
- Within 12 months of the last FCH-PET-CT scan
- description
- To determine if the sensitivity of FCH-PET-CT is superior to combined conventional imaging (MRI (T2 and T1 weighted)/CT and bone scan) in detecting nodal and distant (outside the pelvis) metastases in BRCA1/2 germline mutation carriers with prostate cancer.
