Clinical Trial Design:
OSPREY COHORT A2

OSPREY was a robust, prospective, multicenter, phase 2/3 clinical trial of 385 patients with either high-risk prostate cancer (COHORT A; n=268) or radiologic evidence of recurrence (COHORT B; n=117)

OSPREY assessed the sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV in pelvic lymph nodes for PSMA-targeted PET scan with PYLARIFY

Patient Population
268 patients with high-risk PCa (clinical stage ≥T3a, PSA >20 ng/mL, or Gleason score ≥8 with planned RP-PLND) 
PSMA-targeted PET scan with PYLARIFY
A single dose of PYLARIFY 9 mCi (333 MBq) IV, followed by PET/CT after 1-2 hours
Evaluation

252 patients underwent surgery and had PLND evaluated locally by pathologists blinded to the imaging results. 16 patients did not undergo RP-PLND

Co-primary endpoints:
  • Specificity
  • Sensitivity
Secondary endpoints:
  • PPV
  • Detection of M1 disease
  • NPV
  • Detection of primary tumor within the prostate

In COHORT A, OSPREY included patients across a broad range of PSA levels, disease stages, age ranges, and Gleason scores

Clinical Trial Design:
CONDOR3

CONDOR was a robust, multicenter, phase 3 trial of 208 patients with suspected recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer with negative or equivocal results using standard imaging

CONDOR assessed correct localization rate (CLR)—an improved metric for evaluating diagnostic performance compared to PPV—in patients with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer

Patient Population
208 patients with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer previously treated with radical prostatectomy and/or radiation therapy. All patients had negative/equivocal findings for prostate cancer on standard imaging 60 days before receiving PYLARIFY
PSMA-targeted PET scan with PYLARIFY
A single dose of PYLARIFY 9 mCi (333 MBq) IV 1-2 hours before PET/CT
Evaluation
Primary endpoint:
CLR of PYLARIFY
Secondary endpoint:
Percentage of patients with a change in intended treatment plan

For patients treated with RP, BCR was defined as a rising PSA to ≥0.2 ng/mL

For patients treated with RT, BCR was defined as a PSA value ≥2 ng/mL above patient’s post-radiation nadir value

Reference standards of truth in CONDOR

Because most patients were not expected to have an amenable lesion for histological verification, a composite standard of truth was discussed with the FDA based on these reference standards (in order of priority):

  1. Evaluable histopathology results from prostatectomy, salvage pelvic lymph node dissection, or targeted biopsy
  2. Correlative follow-up imaging findings using 18F-fluciclovine or 11C-choline PET, or focused MRI or CT
  3. If neither of the above was available or informative, confirmed PSA response§ up to 9 months post-radiation initiation (without concomitant ADT) of all PET-positive foci

§PSA response was defined as PSA decline by ≥50% from baseline that was confirmed on repeat measurement within 4 weeks, based on central laboratory results.

CONDOR included patients with a broad range of PSA levels and Gleason scores

Clinical Trial Design:
OSPREY COHORT B2

OSPREY was a robust, prospective, multicenter, phase 2/3 clinical trial of 385 patients with either high-risk prostate cancer (COHORT A; n=268) or radiologic evidence of recurrence (COHORT B; n=117)

In COHORT B, OSPREY assessed sensitivity and PPV in patients with radiologic evidence of recurrence

Patient Population
117 patients with radiologic evidence of recurrence 
Baseline Conventional Imaging
CT, MRI, or bone scan 4-6 weeks before PYLARIFY® PET/CT
PSMA-targeted PET scan with PYLARIFY
A single dose of PYLARIFY 9 mCi (333 MBq) IV, followed by PET/CT after 1-2 hours
Evaluation

Lesions (biopsy) detected by conventional imaging, evaluated for presence or absence of PCa, other neoplasm, or deemed unevaluable

Secondary endpoints:
  • Specificity
  • Sensitivity
*With subanalyses by region and PSA level
CT=computed tomography; MRI=magnetic resonance imaging; PCa=prostate cancer; PET=positron emission tomography; PPV=positive predictive value.
