Brief summary in lay language

The aim of this study is to validate a new method for magnetic labeling and targeted removal of sentinel lymph nodes in prostate cancer. Prostate cancer spreads mainly via the lymphatic system. The reliable detection of lymph node metastases is of great importance . The surgical lymph node removal is currently the most reliable method for the detection of lymph node metastases in prostate cancer. The so-called sentinel lymph nodes are the first tumor draining lymph nodes. The sentinel technique was etablished in prostate cancer similar to other types of cancer (e.g. breast cancer and melanoma). So far, the sentinel lymph nodes were labeled with a radioactive material (technetium-99m nannokolloid) . Now is the opportunity to make the mark with a magnetic material , which has already been carried out successfully in breast cancer. The feasebility of this new magnetic aproach has also been shown in prostate cancer patients (SentiMagPro study, n=20, Winter et al. Ann Surg Oncol, 2014). In this study the detection rate and the sensitivity of magnetic marking and detection of sentinel lymph nodes is further investigated in a larger collective (n=50). For the magnetic labeling of the sentinel lymph nodes a magnetic tracer (Sienna +) is injected into the prostate one day before surgery. In the operation a magnometer guided sentinel lymphadenectomy and a conventional lymphadenectomy are performed. Participation is open to patients for whom a lymph node dissection is recommended as part of a radical prostatectomy according to the German guidelines (intermediate or high risk prostate cancer: PSA greater than 10 ng / mL and/or Gleason score greater than or equal to 7). Sienna+ is injected into the prostate one day before surgery. In the surgery all lymph nodes detected by the SentiMag probe are removed. In addition, a conventional lymphadenectomy is performed.

Brief summary in scientific language

The SentiMag / Sienna + system for marking and detection of sentinel lymph nodes has already been successfully established in breast cancer into clinical routine. The feasebility of this new magnetic approach has also been shown in prostate cancer patients (SentiMagPro study, n=20, Winter et al. Ann Surg Oncol, 2014). In this study the detection rate and the sensitivity of magnetic marking and detection of sentinel lymph nodes is further investigated in a larger collective (n=50). Sienna+ is injected transrectally into the prostate under ultrasound guidance one day before surgery. In the surgery all lymph nodes detected by the SentiMag probe are removed. In addition, a conventional extended lymphadenectomy is performed. Patients with an intermediate or high-risk prostate cancer (PSA greater than 10 ng / ml and / or Gleason score greater than or equal to 7) will be enrolled.

Health condition or problem studied

ICD10:
C61 - Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Healthy volunteers:
No Entry

Interventions, Observational Groups

Arm 1:
transrectally injection of superparamagnetic iron oxid nanoparticles (Sienna+, 2 ml) into the prostate using ultrasound guidence 1 day before surgery; magnetometer guided sentinel lymph node dissection and extended lymphadenectomy in combination with a radical retropubic prostatectomy

Endpoints

Primary outcome:
Intraoperative detection rate of sentinel lymph nodes: number of patients with at least one intraoperative sentinel lymph node detected by magnetometer (SentiMag) guidence / number of operated patients in total
Secondary outcome:
Sensitivity of the SentiMag method in detection of lymph node metastases: - based on patients: number of patients with positive sentinel lymph nodes / total number of patients with positive lymph nodes - based on lymph nodes: number of positive sentinel lymph nodes / total number of positive lymph nodes
