- Renu Eapen, a recipient of the PCF Young Investigator Award, details her groundbreaking project on early use of Lutetium PSMA for high-risk localized prostate cancer. The two-cohort clinical trial involves administering Lutetium PSMA upfront, followed by radical prostatectomy. An integral part of the study is the translational work, analyzing changes in the tumor microenvironment in response to Lu...

- Phillip Kuo joins Alicia Morgans to discuss recent findings in a VISION sub-study. Dr. Kuo explains how this post-hoc exploratory analysis of the PSMA PET scans that were done for the VISION trial resulted in a better understanding of which patients are likely to respond better to treatment with lutetium-PSMA-617. Biographies: Phillip H. Kuo, MD, Ph.D., Professor of Medical Imaging, Medicine and B...

- Alicia Morgans has a conversation with Oliver Sartor regarding updates to the NCCN guidelines concerning patient selection for Lutetium treatment using PSMA PET scans. According to Dr. Sartor, the VISION trial based its approval of PSMA-617 Lutetium-177 on PSMA 11 gallium 68 in patient selection, but other PET scans are equally effective. The choice between PSMA-11 gallium-68 and DCFPYL F18 scans...
