68Ga-RM2 PET/MRI in the Evaluation of Patients With Biochemical Recurrence of Prostate Cancer and Non-contributory CT Scans

This phase II/III trial studies how well gallium (Ga) 68-labeled gastrin-releasing peptide
receptor (GRPR) antagonist BAY86-7548 (68Ga-RM2) positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) works in detecting prostate cancer in patients with negative
computed tomography (CT) scan and elevated prostate-specific antigen levels after treatment
with surgery or radiation. PET/MRI scans take both PET and MRI images at the same time and
combine them into a single picture and is used to describe information regarding the
function, as well as location and size of a tumor. 68Ga-RM2, a compound made of a
radioactive agent linked to a pharmacological substance that is strongly attracted by a
substance made by tumor cells, to detect prostate cancer. 68Ga-RM2 PET/MRI may be able to
see smaller tumors than the standard of care contrast-enhanced CT or MRI scan

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate 68Ga-RM2 (formerly known as DOTA bombesin or BAY 86-7548) PET/MRI for
detection of recurrent prostate cancer after initial therapy in patients with elevated
prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and non-contributory computed tomography (CT).

OUTLINE:

Patients receive 68Ga-RM2 intravenously (IV) and beginning 45 minutes later undergoing
PET/MRI scan. The 68Ga-RM2 PET/MRI may be repeated at the completion of treatment to
evaluate response to therapy, if requested by the treating physician.

After completion of study, patients are followed up at 24-48 hours and then at 1 year.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Biopsy proven prostate adenocarcinoma

- Rising PSA after definitive therapy with prostatectomy or radiation therapy (external
beam or brachytherapy

- Post radical prostatectomy (RP) - American Urological Association (AUA)
recommendation

- PSA greater than 0.2 ng/mL measured 6-13 weeks after RP

- Confirmatory persistent PSA greater than 0.2 ng/mL

- Post-radiation therapy - American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
(ASTRO)-Phoenix consensus definition

- Nadir plus (+) greater than or equal to 2 ng/mL rise in PSA

- No evidence of metastatic disease on conventional imaging, including a negative bone
scan for skeletal metastasis and negative contrast-enhanced CT

- Able to provide written consent

- Karnofsky performance status of >= 50 (or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group
[ECOG]/World Health Organization [WHO] equivalent)

Exclusion Criteria:

- Unable to provide informed consent

- Inability to lie still for the entire imaging time

- Inability to complete the needed investigational and standard-of-care imaging
examinations due to other reasons (severe claustrophobia, radiation phobia, etc.)

- Any additional medical condition, serious intercurrent illness, or other extenuating
circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator, may significantly interfere
with study compliance

- Metallic implants
