Tb-PSMA radionuclide treatment before radical prostatectomy for locally advanced prostate cancer

Official title: Tb-PSMA-I&T Radionuclide Neo-Adjuvant Treatment in Patients With Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer Before Radical Prostatectomy: TbeforePROST Trial.

Run by Rabin Medical Center · NCT07208240 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This will try giving a Tb-PSMA radionuclide treatment to men with high-risk, locally advanced prostate cancer before prostate removal to see if it is safe and reduces tumor burden.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are men aged 18 or older with high-risk localized prostate cancer (cT3/4 and/or Gleason score ≥8 and/or PSA ≥20 ng/mL), confirmed high PSMA expression, ECOG 0–1, life expectancy >10 years, and acceptable blood counts and kidney function.

Probably not a fit

Patients with distant metastatic disease, low PSMA expression, poor blood counts, low albumin, reduced kidney function, or current use of nephrotoxic drugs are excluded and unlikely to benefit from this approach.

What this trial studies

This Phase 1/2, multidisciplinary trial gives Tb-PSMA-I&T radionuclide therapy to men with high-risk, locally advanced prostate cancer prior to planned radical prostatectomy. Participants must have high PSMA expression on imaging and meet predefined blood, kidney, and performance-status criteria, while patients with distant metastases or significant organ dysfunction are excluded. The trial aims to characterize safety, tolerability, and feasibility of preoperative Tb-PSMA and to look for early signals of tumor response at surgery and on imaging. Tb-PSMA has shown promising initial results in metastatic disease but has not been tested as a neoadjuvant approach before prostate removal.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could reduce tumor burden before surgery and lower the risk of residual disease or recurrence.

How similar studies have gone: Tb-PSMA radionuclide treatments have shown promising early results in metastatic prostate cancer, but using Tb-PSMA before prostate removal for locally advanced disease is novel and untested.
