Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (18 and older) with histologically confirmed prostate cancer who need PSMA PET imaging and are in good general condition (ECOG 0-1).
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with significant comorbidities or poor safety indications for PET imaging may not benefit and could be excluded.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This is an interventional early-phase study (Phase 1/2) evaluating a single intravenous injection of [68Ga]Ga-ELI421 for PET imaging in adults with histologically confirmed prostate cancer. The trial will assess safety and tolerability, how the tracer distributes in the body, the radiation dosimetry, and whether the imaging provides useful diagnostic information. Participants will undergo PET imaging after injection and will be closely monitored for adverse events and imaging quality. The study is conducted at Union Hospital in Wuhan, with Eli Radiopharma as a collaborator.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the approach could improve prostate cancer imaging and help guide treatment decisions.
How similar studies have gone: Previous studies have shown that Ga-68 labeled tracers can provide informative PET images, but this specific tracer and setup is being tested in this trial.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Has been fully informed about the study and voluntarily provided written informed consent prior to initiation of any study-related procedures; 2. Aged ≥ 18 years; 3. In generally good condition with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0-1; 4. Patients with histopathologically and/or cytologically confirmed prostate cancer; 5. Has an indication for PSMA PET imaging; 6. No clinically significant abnormal findings on physical examination, vital signs, laboratory tests, 12-lead ECG, or other examinations that may compromise subject safety or imaging results. 7. Subjects of reproductive potential agree to refrain from pregnancy, sperm donation, and voluntarily use highly effective contraceptive methods (including by their partner) for 6 months after study drug administration, such as condoms, oral or injectable contraceptives, intrauterine devices (IUDs), etc. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Presence of comorbidities that may compromise subject safety or interfere with imaging results; 2. Concomitant medications that may compromise subject safety or interfere with imaging results; 3. Insufficient washout period following prior anti-tumor therapies (including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, etc.), which may compromise subject safety or interfere with imaging results; 4. Known hypersensitivity to ionizing radiation or alcohol, or hypersensitivity to \[⁶⁸Ga\]Ga-ELI421 injection or its excipients, or other history of severe allergic reactions; 5. Inability to complete PET imaging as required; 6. Any other conditions deemed inappropriate by the investigator for participation in this study.
