Background summary
A novel radiation-based treatment for PCa is radionuclide therapy targeting
Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA), a protein which is overexpressed in
PCa cells.[2] PSMA ligands can be labeled with radioisotopes such as the
beta-emitter Lutetium-177 (Lu-177). Treatment of patients with this compound
results in high radiation doses specifically on PSMA expressing tumors. This
therapy is called PSMA-specific radionuclide therapy (Lu-177-PSMA) and offers
several advantages above Radium-223 as it targets all tumor lesions in the
body, not only bone metastases. Moreover, PSMA-targeted radionuclide therapy is
PSMA-specific, which selectively limits radiation damage to PSMA-expressing
tissues and reduces damage to healthy tissues. Lu-177-PSMA therefore combines
high tumoricidal effects with low toxicity.
Study objective
The primary aim of this first line 177Lu-PSMA RLT study is to evaluate the
clinical efficacy in castration resistant metastatic prostate cancer. Secondary
aims are to assess the progression free survival (radiographic, clinical or PSA
progression free survival), the response to 177Lu-177 PSMA RLT (RECIST 1.1,
metabolic, biomarkers), the safety and tolerability, the health-related quality
of life assessment and pain assessment, and the overall survival.
Study design
This is a multicentric, single arm and open label phase II study.
Intervention
Treatment of mCRPC with a maximum of 6 cycles of 177Lu-PSMA-617 radioligand
therapy.
Study burden and risks
As standard of care, patients will undergo a 68Ga/18F-PSMA PET/CT scan prior to
inclusion. For this study, PSMA-PET/CT imaging will be performed after every
two cycles and about 6 and 12 months after completion of therapy.
A potential risk is the therapeutic injection with 177Lu-PSMA-617 itself, as it
is not yet completely clear what the short and longterm toxicity profile of
this new therapeutic approach is. However, it is important to note that
treatment with 177Lu-PSMA-617 shows potential in stabilization of previously
progressive disease.
