Authorised Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III) Prostate cancer

PSMA PET For intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer prior to RadioTherapY: A prospective interventional randomized clinical trial (P4RTY)

EU CTIS ID: 2023-506032-33-00

What this study is testing

To assess difference in efficacy between curative-intent RT based on PSMA PET vs based on standard-of care imaging, in patients with primary prostate cancer (intermediate- or high-risk) for whom curative-intent RT is appropriate given the imaging results.

  • Pathological finding consistent with small cell, or neuroendocrine carcinoma of the prostate
  • Any of the following within 6 months prior to the trial intervention: severe or unstable angina, myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, stroke, clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias or NYHA Class II to VI heart disease; uncomplicated deep vein thrombosis is not considered exclusionary
