- The treatment of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) has mostly involved androgen receptor-targeted therapies (ARTTs) and cytotoxic chemotherapy for over a decade. Lutetium-177 [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 is a radiolabelled small molecule that delivers β radiation to cells expressing prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), with activity and safety in patients with metas...

- 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...
