New treatment option for Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
Official title Treatment of Patients With Progressive mCRPC With 177Lu-PSMA-617
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06972628
What this study is testing
What is Administering Lutetium-177-PSMA-617 (PLUVICTO)?
Administering Lutetium-177-PSMA-617 (PLUVICTO) is an investigational medicine, given as a monthly infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Lutetium-177-PSMA-617 (PLUVICTO) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and extensive bone metastases, which appear as a "super scan" pattern on a bone scan. Pluvicto is FDA-approved, but patients with super scan bone scans were previously excluded from the VISION clinical trial, leaving a knowledge gap.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Time commitment: about 24 months
