TheraP: 177Lu-PSMA617 Theranostic vs Cabazitaxel in Progressive Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) - Michael Hofman & Ian Davis

Details
Ian Davis, MBBS, PhD, FRACP, and Michael Hofman, MBBS, FRACP, discuss the TheraP trial with Alicia Morgans, MD, MPH, which was presented at the ASCO 2020 virtual meeting. This study showed that in men with docetaxel-treated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), LuPSMA was more active than cabazitaxel. Drs. Hofman and Davis provide insights into how Lutetium-PSMA works mechanisti...

The aim of the study which he was presenting during this Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging presentation was to determine the influence of timing of lutetium PSMA radioligand therapy in metastatic pr...

Outcomes of Patients From PSMA Targeted Radionuclide Trials - Panagiotis Vlachostergios

Details
Panagiotis Vlachostergios, MD, Ph.D., describes a study that he conducted reviewing the outcomes of patients who participated in PSMA targeted radionuclide trials over the past 18 years. Dr. Vlachostergios generated a visual score of PSMA expression to determine an association with response to PSMA-radio-nucleotide targeted therapies. Higher PSMA expressers showed an association with PSA response....

High Activity Pain Reduction and Low Toxicity with Lu177 PSMA617 Theranostics - Michael Hofman

Details
Professor Michael Hofman presents details of a phase II prospective study on lutetium-PSMA-617. This study used the diagnostic companion of gallium-PSMA-11 to select patients with a high PSMA expression that were suitable for lutetium-PSMA-607 therapy. This was a prospective study. It was a 30 patient study and the results of that initial cohort were published in Lancet Oncology. This was followed...
