Study Summary

This phase II trial tests whether 68-Gallium prostate specific membrane antigen (68Ga-PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging can improve the diagnosis and management of liver cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (advanced). PSMA is a protein that appears in large amounts on the surface of liver cancer cells. The radioactive chemical compound (68Ga-PSMA) has been designed to circulate through the body and attach itself to the PSMA protein on liver cancer cells. A PET scan is then used to detect the location of the tumor cells. 68Ga-PSMA PET may improve upon the diagnosis and management of liver cancer.

Primary Outcome

Defined as the time from study registration to complete response/partial response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 and per PSMA positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT).
