BACKGROUND: We investigated the response rate and degree of toxicity of a second course of three cycles of [177Lu]Lu-PSMA radioligand therapy (PSMA-RLT) every 4 weeks in mCRPC patients. METHODS: Forty-three men (71.5 ± 6.6 years, median PSA 40.8 (0.87-1358 µg/L)) were studied. The response was based on the PSA level 4 weeks after the third cycle. The laboratory parameters before and one month after the last cycle were compared. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to estimate the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), and the Cox regression model was performed to find predictors of survival. RESULTS: Twenty-six patients (60.5%) exhibited a PSA reduction (median PSA declined from 40.8 to 20.2, range 0.6-1926 µg/L, p = 0.002); 18 (42%) and 8 (19%) patients showed a PSA decline of ≥50% and ≥80%, respectively. The median OS and PFS were 136 and 31 weeks, respectively. The patients with only lymph node metastases survived longer (p = 0.02), whereas the patients with bone metastases had a shorter survival (p = 0.03). In the multivariate analysis, only the levels of PSA prior to the therapy remained significant for OS (p < 0.05, hazard ratio 2.43, 95% CI 1.01-5.87). The levels of hemoglobin (11.5 ± 1.7 g/dL vs. 11 ± 1.6 g/dL, p = 0.006) and platelets (208 ± 63 g/L vs. 185 ± 63 g/L, p = 0.002) significantly decreased one month after cycle three, though only two grade 3 anemia and one grade 3 thrombocytopenia were recorded. CONCLUSION: A further intensive PSMA-RLT course is well tolerated in mCRPC patients and associated with promising response rates and OS.

UNLABELLED: Initial reports of a clinical response in patients treated with the radioligand [177Lu]-PSMA-617 for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) are promising, despite known inter- and intrapatient heterogeneity. In metastatic CRPC, we examined the association of baseline immunohistochemical (IHC) expression of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) in a single lesion and responsiveness to [177Lu]-PSMA-617 therapy, measured as the PSMA maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax). Between 2015 and 2020, 19 patients with multiple metastases underwent single-lesion biopsy, [68Ga]-PSMA positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, and treatment with [177Lu]-PSMA-617. A monoclonal anti-PSMA antibody was used to semiquantitatively assess PSMA IHC in the biopsy specimen. Imaging evaluation of the biopsied single lesion and overall response was performed according to Positron Emission Tomography Response Criteria in Solid Tumors. The PSMA IHC histoscore correlated positively with pretreatment same-site PSMA SUVmax (r s = 0.6). Nine patients had imaging after three cycles of [177Lu]-PSMA-617 and were included in the lesion-specific analysis. Of these, five patients (55.6%) had an SUVmax response at the biopsy site, but three experienced overall progression. The histoscore was unable to predict the lesion-specific change in SUVmax (95% confidence interval [CI] -44.2 to 69.2) or PSA (95% CI-125.2 to 17.2). There was no correlation between single-lesion SUVmax and overall progression (r s = 0.1) on [68Ga]-PSMA PET imaging. Additional studies need to interrogate the clinical consequence of PSMA expression heterogeneity in metastases and the association with response to [177Lu]-PSMA-671. PATIENT SUMMARY: Treatment with a radioactive binding molecule called [177Lu]-PSMA-617 for men with prostate cancer resistant to castration (CRPC) is showing promise. We investigated the association between the presence of PSMA protein in metastatic lesions at biopsy and response to [177Lu]-PSMA-617 among men with metastatic CRPC. We found that assessment of PSMA presence at biopsy is not a reliable predictor of response to [177Lu]-PSMA-617. Additional studies are needed to better determine which CRPC metastatic sites will respond to this therapy.

PURPOSE: [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 radio-ligand therapy (PSMA-RLT) is emerging in patients with an advanced metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Here, we aimed to estimate the results of PSMA-RLT in terms of response, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) in patients receiving a highly standardized treatment regimen due to mCRPC. The toxicity of PSMA-RLT has also been evaluated. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Fifty-four patients (mean age 72 ± 7 years, median PSA at time of initial therapy 66 [range 1.0-4890 μg/L]), receiving three PSMA-RLT cycles (mean 7315 ± 573 MBq) at four weekly intervals, were included in this retrospective analysis. Hematological and biochemical parameters were regularly determined in every patient. Kaplan-Meier estimates were used to assess PFS and OS and a Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze significant associations. Treatment response was based on PSA measurements 4 weeks after the 3rd treatment. RESULTS: The majority of patients were previously treated with abiraterone/enzalutamide (69%) and docetaxel/cabazitaxel (67%). In total, 79% of the patients showed a decrease in PSA (median PSA decrease from 66 to 19.8, range 0.7-4563 μg/L, P < 0.001) 1 month after the 3rd therapy cycle. Among them, 58% and 35% demonstrated a PSA-decline of > 50% and > 80%, respectively. Median OS was 119 weeks; median PFS was 25 weeks. Patients presenting with a PSA decline had significantly longer PFS (27 vs. 15 weeks, P < 0.0001) and OS (median survival not reached vs. 52 weeks, P < 0.001) than patients with no PSA reduction. Moreover, patients with reduction in PSA levels ≥ 50% (median survival not reached vs. 52 weeks, P < 0.0001) and ≥ 80% (median survival not reached vs. 87 weeks, P = 0.008) lived significantly longer. While hemoglobin did not change during treatment, levels of platelets (236 ± 71 g/L vs. 193 ± 67 g/L) and leucocytes (6.5, range 2.9-13.7 g/L vs. 4.8, range 1.5-12.3 g/L) decreased significantly, both P < 0.001. Two grade 3 leukocytopenia and one grade 3 anemia were observed. CONCLUSION: Intense PSMA-RLT regime with four weekly intervals between the cycles is well-tolerated and offers favorable response rates, PFS, and survival rates for patients with mCRPC.

BACKGROUND: [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 (177Lu-PSMA-617) prolongs radiographic progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer previously treated with androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) and taxane therapy. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of 177Lu-PSMA-617 in patients with taxane-naive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. METHODS: In this phase 3, randomised, controlled trial conducted at 74 sites across Europe and North America, taxane-naive patients with prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who had progressed once on a previous ARPI were randomly allocated (1:1) to open-label, intravenous 177Lu-PSMA-617 at a dosage of 7·4 GBq (200 mCi) ± 10% once every 6 weeks for six cycles, or a change of ARPI (to abiraterone or enzalutamide, administered orally on a continuous basis per product labelling). Crossover from ARPI change to 177Lu-PSMA-617 was allowed after centrally confirmed radiographic progression. The primary endpoint was radiographic progression-free survival, defined as the time from randomisation until radiographic progression or death, assessed in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was a secondary endpoint. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04689828) and is ongoing. In this primary report of the study, we present primary (first data cutoff) and updated (third data cutoff) analyses of radiographic progression-free survival; all other data are based on the third data cutoff. FINDINGS: Overall, of the 585 patients screened, 468 met all eligibility criteria and were randomly allocated between June 15, 2021 and Oct 7, 2022 to receive 177Lu-PSMA-617 (234 [50%] patients) or ARPI change (234 [50%]). Baseline characteristics were mostly similar between groups; median number of 177Lu-PSMA-617 cycles was 6·0 (IQR 4·0-6·0). Of patients assigned to ARPI change, 134 (57%) crossed over to receive 177Lu-PSMA-617. In the primary analysis (median time from randomisation to first data cutoff 7·26 months [IQR 3·38-10·55]), the median radiographic progression-free survival was 9·30 months (95% CI 6·77-not estimable) in the 177Lu-PSMA-617 group versus 5·55 months (4·04-5·95) in the ARPI change group (hazard ratio [HR] 0·41 [95% CI 0·29-0·56]; p<0·0001). In the updated analysis at time of the third data cutoff (median time from randomisation to third data cutoff 24·11 months [IQR 20·24-27·40]), median radiographic progression-free survival was 11·60 months (95% CI 9·30-14·19) in the 177Lu-PSMA-617 group versus 5·59 months (4·21-5·95) in the ARPI change group (HR 0·49 [95% CI 0·39-0·61]). The incidence of grade 3-5 adverse events was lower in the 177Lu-PSMA-617 group (at least one event in 81 [36%] of 227 patients; four [2%] grade 5 [none treatment related]) than the ARPI change group (112 [48%] of 232; five [2%] grade 5 [one treatment related]). INTERPRETATION: 177Lu-PSMA-617 prolonged radiographic progression-free survival relative to ARPI change, with a favourable safety profile. For patients with PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who are being considered for a change of ARPI after progression on a previous ARPI, 177Lu-PSMA-617 may be an effective treatment alternative.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 radioligand therapy (PSMA-RLT) is a new therapy for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, identification of reliable prognostic factors is hampered by heterogeneous treatment regimens applied in previous studies. Hence, we sought clinical factors able to predict response and survival to PSMA-RLT in a homogenous group of patients, all receiving 7400 MBq every 4 weeks. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data of 61 patients (mean age 71.6 ± 6.9 years, median basal PSA 70.7 [range 1.0-4890 μg/L]), pretreated with abiraterone/enzalutamide (75.4%) and docetaxel/cabazitaxel (68.9%), received three cycles of PSMA-RLT (mean 7321 ± 592 MBq) at four weekly intervals and were analyzed retrospectively. General medical conditions and laboratory parameters of every patients were regularly assessed. Response to therapy was based on PSA levels 1 month after the 3rd cycle. Binary logistic regression test and Kaplan-Meier estimates were used to evaluate predictors and overall survival (OS). RESULTS: Forty-nine (80.3%) patients demonstrated a therapy response in terms of any PSA decline, while 21 (19.7%) patients showed increase or no changes in their PSA levels. Baseline hemoglobin (Hb) significantly predicted PSA reductions of ≥ 50% 4 weeks after receiving the 3rd PSMA-RLT (P = 0.01, 95% CI: 1.09-2.09) with an AUC of 0.68 (95% CI: 0.54-0.81). The levels of basal Hb and basal PSA were able to predict survival of patients, both P < 0.05 (relative risk 1.51 and 0.79, 95% CI: 1.09-2.09 and 0.43-1.46), respectively. In comparison to patients with reduced basal Hb, patients with normal basal Hb levels lived significantly longer (median survival not reached vs. 89 weeks, P = 0.016). Also, patients with basal PSA levels ≤ 650 μg/L had a significantly longer survival than patients with basal PSA levels > 650 μg/L (median survival not reached vs. 97 weeks, P = 0.031). Neither pretreatments with abiraterone/enzalutamide or docetaxel/cabazitaxel nor distribution of metastasis affected survival and rate of response to PSMA-RLT. CONCLUSION: Basal Hb level is an independent predictor for therapy response and survival in patients receiving PSMA-RLT every 4 weeks. Both baseline PSA ≤ 650 μg/L and normal Hb levels were associated with longer survival.

BACKGROUND: The European Association of Urology guidelines include the lutetium-177 (177Lu) PSMA-617 prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligand as a therapy option for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). A major challenge in clinical practice is to pursue a personalized treatment approach based on robust predictive biomarkers. OBJECTIVE: To assess the performance of 177Lu PSMA in real-world practice and to elaborate clinical biomarkers for evaluating treatment responses. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: We conducted a retrospective observational study including 233 patients with mCRPC treated with 177Lu PSMA in eight high-volume European centers. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Baseline characteristics and clinical parameters during and after 177Lu PSMA treatment were documented. Correlations to treatment response were analyzed using χ2 and log-rank tests, with differences between groups with and without disease progression calculated using a Mann-Whitney U test. Univariate and multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were measured using Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: A prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decrease of ≥30% was observed in 41.7%, 63.5%, and 77.8% of patients after the first, second, and third treatment cycle, respectively. Restaging performed via PSMA positron emission tomography-computed tomography revealed that 33.7% of patients had an imaging-based response, including two patients with a complete response, while 13.4% had stable disease. The median time to progression was 5 mo and the median time until the start of a consecutive antineoplastic therapy was 8.5 mo. Of importance, a PSA decrease ≥30% after the first two cycles of 177Lu PSMA (1 cycle: p = 0.0003; 2 cycles: p = 0.004), absolute PSA after the first three cycles (1 cycle: p = 0.011; 2 cycles: p = 0.0005; 3 cycles: p = 0.002), and a PSA doubling time >6 mo (p = 0.009) were significantly correlated to treatment response. Furthermore, gamma-glutamyl transferase ≤31 U/L at the start of 177Lu PSMA therapy was correlated with 1.5 times higher risk of progression for patients without but not with visceral metastases (p = 0.046). CONCLUSIONS: 177Lu PSMA is an effective treatment option in mCRPC in the real-world setting. A PSA decrease ≥30% after the first two cycles is an early marker of response that can be easily implemented in clinical practice. PATIENT SUMMARY: 177Lu PSMA is a radioactive agent approved for treatment of advanced prostate cancer. We reviewed its use outside of clinical trials for patients treated at eight European centers. We found that 177Lu PSMA is an effective treatment option in real-world practice. A PSA (prostate-specific antigen) decrease of ≥30% after the first two therapy cycles is an early indicator of response to treatment and can be used in personalizing treatments for patients.

The efficacy of radioligand therapy (RLT) targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is currently being investigated for its application in patients with early-stage prostate cancer (PCa). However, little is known about PSMA expression in healthy organs in this cohort. Collectively, 202 [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 positron emission tomography (PET) scans from 152 patients were studied. Of these, 102 PET scans were from patients with primary PCa and hormone-sensitive biochemically recurrent PCa and 50 PET scans were from patients with metastatic castration-resistant PCa (mCRPC) before and after three cycles of [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-RLT. PSMA-standardized uptake values (SUV) were measured in multiple organs and PSMA-total tumor volume (PSMA-TTV) was determined in all cohorts. The measured PET parameters of the different cohorts were normalized to the bloodpool and compared using t- or Mann-Whitney U tests. Patients with early-stage PCa had lower PSMA-TTVs (10.39 mL vs. 462.42 mL, p < 0.001) and showed different SUVs in the thyroid, submandibular glands, heart, liver, kidneys, intestine, testes and bone marrow compared to patients with advanced CRPC, with all tests showing p < 0.05. Despite the differences in the PSMA-TTV of patients with mCRPC before and after [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-RLT (462.42 mL vs. 276.29 mL, p = 0.023), no significant organ differences in PET parameters were detected. These suggest different degrees of PSMA-ligand binding among patients with different stages of PCa that could influence radiotoxicity during earlier stages of disease in different organs when PSMA-RLT is administered.

BACKGROUND: [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 radioligand therapy (PSMA-RLT) could affect kidney and salivary gland functions in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed clinical, renal, and salivary scintigraphy data and salivary [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 ligand PET scan measures such as metabolic volume and SUVmax values of 27 mCRPC men (mean age 71 ± 7 years) before and 4 weeks after receiving three cycles of PSMA-RLT every 4 weeks. Twenty-two patients additionally obtained renal and salivary scintigraphy prior to each cycle. A one-way ANOVA, post-hoc Scheffé test and Cochran's Q test were applied to assess organ toxicity. RESULTS: In total, 54 PSMA PET scans, 98 kidney, and 98 salivary scintigraphy results were evaluated. There were no significant differences for the ejection fraction, peak time, and residual activity after 5 min for both parotid and submandibular glands prior to each cycle and 4 weeks after the last cycle. Similarly, no significant differences in serum creatinine and renal scintigraphy parameters were observed prior to each cycle and 4 weeks after the last treatment. Despite there being no changes in the metabolic volume of both submandibular glands, SUVmax values dropped significantly (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Results evidenced no alterations in renal function and only minimal impairment of salivary function of mCRPC patients who acquired an intense PSMA-RLT regimen every 4 weeks.

PURPOSE: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) radioligand therapy is a promising treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Several beta or alpha particle-emitting radionuclide-conjugated small molecules have shown efficacy in late-stage mCRPC and one, [[177Lu]Lu]Lu-PSMA-617, is FDA approved. In addition to tumor upregulation, PSMA is also expressed in kidneys and salivary glands where specific uptake can cause dose-limiting xerostomia and potential for nephrotoxicity. The PSMA inhibitor 2-(phosphonomethyl)pentanedioic acid (2-PMPA) can prevent kidney uptake in mice, but also blocks tumor uptake, precluding its clinical utility. Preferential delivery of 2-PMPA to non-malignant tissues could improve the therapeutic window of PSMA radioligand therapy. METHODS: A tris(isopropoxycarbonyloxymethyl) (TrisPOC) prodrug of 2-PMPA, JHU-2545, was synthesized to enhance 2-PMPA delivery to non-malignant tissues. Mouse pharmacokinetic experiments were conducted to compare JHU-2545-mediated delivery of 2-PMPA to plasma, kidney, salivary glands, and C4-2 prostate tumor xenograft. Imaging studies were conducted in rats and mice to measure uptake of PSMA PET tracers in kidney, salivary glands, and prostate tumor xenografts with and without JHU-2545 pre-treatment. RESULTS: JHU-2545 resulted in approximately 3- and 53-fold greater exposure of 2-PMPA in rodent salivary glands (18.0 ± 0.97 h*nmol/g) and kidneys (359 ± 4.16 h*nmol/g) versus prostate tumor xenograft (6.79 ± 0.19 h*nmol/g). JHU-2545 also blocked rodent kidneys and salivary glands uptake of the PSMA PET tracers [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 and [18 F]F-DCFPyL by up to 85% with little effect on tumor. CONCLUSIONS: JHU-2545 pre-treatment may enable greater cumulative administered doses of PSMA radioligand therapy, possibly improving safety and efficacy.

5D3 is a new high-affinity murine monoclonal antibody specific for prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). PSMA is a target for the imaging and therapy of prostate cancer. 111In-labeled antibodies have been used as surrogates for 177Lu/90Y-labeled therapeutics. We characterized 111In-DOTA-5D3 by SPECT/CT imaging, tissue biodistribution studies, and dosimetry. Methods: Radiolabeling, stability, cell uptake, and internalization of 111In-DOTA-5D3 were performed by established techniques. Biodistribution and SPECT imaging were done on male nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficient (NOD/SCID) mice bearing human PSMA(+) PC3 PIP and PSMA(-) PC3 flu prostate cancer xenografts on the upper right and left flanks, respectively, at 2, 24, 48, 72, and 192 h after injection. Biodistribution was also evaluated in tumor-free, healthy male CD-1 mice. Blocking studies were performed by coinjection of a 10-fold and 50-fold excess of 5D3 followed by biodistribution at 24 h to determine PSMA binding specificity. The absorbed radiation doses were calculated on the basis of murine biodistribution data, which were translated to a human adult man using organ weights as implemented in OLINDA/EXM. Results:111In-DOTA-5D3 was synthesized with specific activity of approximately 2.24 ± 0.74 MBq/μg (60.54 ± 20 μCi/μg). Distribution of 111In-DOTA-5D3 in PSMA(+) PC3 PIP tumor peaked at 24 h after injection and remained high until 72 h. Uptake in normal tissues, including the blood, spleen, liver, heart, and lungs, was highest at 2 h after injection. Coinjection of 111In-DOTA-5D3 with a 10- and 50-fold excess of nonradiolabeled antibody significantly reduced PSMA(+) PC3 PIP tumor and salivary gland uptake at 24 h but did not reduce uptake in kidneys and lacrimal glands. Significant clearance of 111In-DOTA-5D3 from all organs occurred at 192 h. The highest radiation dose was received by the liver (0.5 mGy/MBq), followed by the spleen and kidneys. Absorbed radiation doses to the salivary and lacrimal glands and bone marrow were low. Conclusion:111In-DOTA-5D3 is a new radiolabeled antibody for imaging and a surrogate for therapy of malignant tissues expressing PSMA.
