| Evaluating Clinical Outcomes with Systemic Therapy Given After Progression on PSMA Radioligand Therapy in Patients with mCRPC
|
| Soumaya Labidi, MD |
| Soumaya Labidi presents findings on systemic therapy outcomes post-progression on PSMA radioligand therapy in mCRPC. A retrospective study revealed rare responses to subsequent therapy, with PSA levels impacting survival. Notably, taxane response rates were lower post-PSMA therapy, suggesting the need for prospective trials to optimize treatment sequencing.

Prognostic Value of End-of-Treatment PSMA PET/CT in Patients Treated with 177Lu-PSMA Radioligand Therapy: A Retrospective, Single-Center Analysis - Beyond the Abstract
|
| Vishnu Murthy, BA |
| Vishnu Murthy discusses the prognostic value of end-of-treatment PSMA PET/CT (ePET) in mCRPC patients treated with 177Lu-PSMA-617. Findings from a retrospective analysis suggest that patients with new lesions on ePET or a greater than 20% increase in whole-body tumor volume had shorter overall survival. These insights underscore the potential of ePET as a prognostic tool and call for larger prospective trials to validate its role in clinical practice. |
