Phase 2 Randomized Trial of Flexible Dosing Schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 for the Treatment of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (FLEX-MRT)

In advanced metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) progressing after chemotherapy and androgen receptor (AR)-targeted therapy 177Lu-PSMA-617 is an effective treatment. 177Lu-PSMA-617 RLT is administered with a fixed schedule: 6 treatment cycles, administered every 6 weeks. However, the optimum number of cycles of 177Lu-PSMA in patients who show good response remains unknown. Some patients may benefit from more than 6 cycles of therapy. Additionally, some patients experience a complete or almost complete response before the last cycle. It is unclear whether these patients benefit from the subsequent remaining treatment cycle(s). A treatment holiday period would spare these patients some exposure to the therapy agent and avoid potentially unnecessary toxicity when treatment efficacy is already maximal and additional treatment effect cannot be expected. This randomized phase 2 study compares a group of patients treated with LuPSMA on a flexible and extended dosing schedule including "treatment holiday" periods (investigational arm, up to 12 cycles, as described below) to a control group treated with a fixed dosing schedule of 6 treatments cycles maximum administered every 6 weeks. The flexible dosing schedule in the investigational arm will be based on single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT) response assessments obtained 24h after injection of LuPSMA therapy cycle. The response assessment during treatment holiday period will b…
