Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates for this study are men with histologically confirmed metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have shown disease progression after prior treatments.

Probably not a fit

Patients who are not experiencing progression of their prostate cancer or those currently receiving active anti-tumor therapies may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and tolerability of a new radiopharmaceutical, 225Ac-PSMA I&T, for treating metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The study involves a single-center, single-arm, phase I dose escalation design, where up to 30 patients will receive therapy with varying doses of the radionuclide. Patients will undergo PET-MRI scans to assess the effects of the treatment on cancer metastases and to determine the appropriate dosage for future studies.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this therapy could provide a new treatment option for patients with advanced prostate cancer that is resistant to standard therapies.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies using radiopharmaceuticals for prostate cancer have shown promising results, indicating potential for success with this novel approach.

Inclusion Criteria:

* Histopathological proven metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer. Castrationresistant disease is defined as a serum testosterone level of 50 nanogram per deciliter or lower (≤1.7 nanomol per liter) after bilateral orchiectomy or during maintenance treatment consisting of androgen-ablation therapy with a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist.
* Evidence of progressive disease, defined as 1 or more Prostate Cancer Work Grouping 3 (PCWG3) criteria: - PSA level ≥ 1 ng/mL that has increased on at least 2 successive occasions at least 1 week apart
* Progression as defined by RECIST 1.1 with PCGW3 modifications
* Progression after at least one line of chemotherapy and/or one line of nonsteroidal antiandrogen (NSAA).
* No active anti-tumor therapy, except for androgen deprivation therapy in combination with at least one androgen receptor-targeted agent
* Willing and able to undergo 2 cycles of 225Ac-PSMA I\&T therapy and 3 PET-MRI scans in 16 weeks and comply with protocol
* Signed and dated written informed consent by the patient (or legal representative) prior to any study-specific procedures.
* Age ≥ 18 years.
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance-status score 0-2.
* Use of highly effective methods of contraception (female partners of male participants)
* During the trial and 6 months after completion of the study or willing to practice sexual abstinence.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Concurrent severe illness or clinically relevant trauma within 2 weeks before the administration of the investigational product that might preclude study completion or interfere with study results

* Concurrent bladder outflow obstruction or unmanageable urinary incontinence
* Known or expected hypersensitivity to Gallium-68, Actinium-225, PSMA I\&T, or any excipient present in 225Ac/68Ga-PSMA I\&T
* Prior administration of a radiopharmaceutical within a period corresponding to 8 halflives of the radionuclide used on such radiopharmaceutical
* Prior treatment with any radionuclide therapy
* History of somatic or psychiatric disease/condition that may interfere with the objectives and assessments of the study
* Central nervous system (CNS) metastases, leptomeningeal disease, or spinal cord compression
* Radiation therapy within 4 weeks of first dose (or local or focal radiotherapy within 2 weeks of first dose)
* Male subjects unwilling to abstain from donating sperm during treatment and for an additional 6 months after the last dose
