- Alicia Morgans, MD, MPH, is joined by Michael Morris, MD, to discuss the phase III VISION trial results and the practice-changing implications when lutetium-177-PSMA-617 is FDA approved. The VISION trial evaluated men who had post androgen receptor pathway inhibitor therapy and post docetaxel or docetaxel and cabazitaxel chemotherapy, who were randomized to a protocol-defined standard of care with...

- In this conversation, Scott Tagawa and Oliver Sartor join Charles Ryan in a discussion on the PSMAddition clinical trial that integrates lutetium-177 with standard-of-care therapy in metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). The trial aims to determine the efficacy and safety of lutetium-177 administered earlier in the disease course. They believe that using lutetium-177 upfront wil...

- Men who received 177Lu-PSMA-617 plus best standard of care had a 38% reduction in risk of death (median OS benefit of 4 months) and a 60% reduction in the risk of radiographic disease progression or death (median rPFS benefit of 5 months) compared to best standard of care alone. Mary-Ellen Taplin, Professor of Medicine and a GU Medical Oncologist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, joins Alicia Morga...

- Bennett Chin discusses Lutetium-177 PSMA, an investigational class of targeted, radionuclide agents. The focus of this treatment is on Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA), a molecule overexpressed on higher-grade prostate cancer cells. Lutetium-177 is a radioactive beta emitter that binds to PSMA, delivering highly targeted radiation therapy to prostate cancer cells. This emitter also has mi...
