Phase III randomised controlled trial on PSMA PET/CT guided hypofractionated salvage prostate bed radiotherapy of biochemical failure after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer (PERYTON-trial): study protocol

F. H. E. Staal et al.

Summary: The PERYTON trial aims to investigate whether increasing the biological effective radiation dose using hypofractionation can improve the treatment outcome of salvage external beam radiotherapy (sEBRT) for patients with biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy. The use of PSMA PET/CT allows the exclusion of patients with oligometastases, avoiding ineffective treatment and unnecessary toxicity.

Event-free survival after 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in recurrent hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) patients eligible for salvage therapy

Francesco Ceci et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of clinically relevant events during follow-up in BCR prostate cancer patients who underwent PSMA-PET. The results showed that high PSA level and short PSAdt were predictors of higher event rates. PSMA-PET can predict the occurrence of clinically relevant events, and patients with negative PSMA-PET have a lower event rate.

Metastasis-Free Survival and Patterns of Distant Metastatic Disease After Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Positron Emission Tomography (PSMA-PET)-Guided Salvage Radiation Therapy in Recurrent or Persistent Prostate Cancer After Prostatectomy

Constantinos Zamboglou et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the metastasis-free survival (MFS) and metastatic patterns after salvage radiation therapy (sRT) guided by prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography (PSMA-PET). The results showed that PSMA-PET detected distant metastases (DM) after sRT, with two distinct patterns: abdominal-lymphatic and distant. PSMA-PET-detected pelvic lymph node (PLN-PET) may serve as a new predictive parameter for MFS.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the impact of intravenous hydration and furosemide diuresis at different dosages on tracer accumulation and halo artefact in urinary system. Results showed that 20mg furosemide and 500ml sodium chloride significantly reduced bladder halo artefacts and tracer accumulation intensity in [Ga-68]Ga-PSMA-11-PET/CT scans.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of [Ga-68]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in recurrent prostate cancer after prostatectomy in a large multicentre cohort. Results showed a clear association between higher PSA levels and Gleason Score with tumor detection on PET/CT, while age, amount of injected tracer, PSA doubling-time (PDA(DT)) or PSA velocity (PSA(Vel)) were not associated with pathological scans.
