About

225Ac-PSMA I&T is a radiopharmaceutical for therapy of prostate cancer. PSMA is overexpressed on prostate cancer cells. Actium-225 is an alpha emitting radionuclide. When PSMA I&T is labelled with Actium-225, it can be applied as therapy for prostate cancer.

Full description

Rationale:

Objective:

To evaluate the tolerability and safety of 225Ac-PSMA I&T in patients with metastatic prostate cancer and recommend a dose for further phase 2 studies.

Study design:

A clinical prospective, single-center, single-arm, phase I dose escalation therapy study.

Study population:

Up to 30 patients with advanced metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Intervention:

Patients with advanced mCRPC will receive therapy with 225Ac-PSMA I&T. The first dose-level will not exceed 8 megabecquerel (MBq), as this is reported in the literature as a save activity for treatment. A Positron Emission Tomography - Magnetic Resonance Imaging (PET-MRI) with Gallium-68-PSMA I&T (68Ga) will be performed to calculate the precise dose-level needed and as a verification the precise dose-level will be compared with the dose-level of 8 MBq. In the first week after therapy, the PET-MRI will be repeated to observe any effects of the alpha radiation on the metastases and observe the potential changes in 68Ga-PSMA I&T uptake. Eight weeks after the first cycle, patients will receive the second cycle of 225Ac-PSMA I&T. If no Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) occurs, the dose can be increased for the next DL. If a DLT occurs, the cohort will be expanded to 6 patients. After establishing the recommended dose, an expansion cohort will be opened with a total of 12 patients.

Main study endpoints:

To investigate the safety, tolerability and biochemical effects of 225Ac-PSMA I&T injected in patients with metastatic prostate cancer.

Primary objective:

To assess the safety and tolerability of 225Ac-PSMA I&T administered intravenously

Secondary objectives:

To predict and calculate the absorbed-dose in critical organs (e.g. salivary glands, kidneys, bone marrow) by 68Ga-PSMA I&T PET-MRI
To evaluate the effects of the radionuclide therapy on metastases in the days after therapy using 68Ga-PSMA I&T PET-MRI
To evaluate the biochemical effects of 225Ac-PSMA I&T therapy in patients with metastatic prostate cancer

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.
