- Daniel George hosts Michael Morris to discuss pivotal studies influencing the use of Pluvicto (lutetium PSMA-617) in treating prostate cancer. The conversation begins with the VISION study, which led to Pluvicto's approval by demonstrating significant improvements in radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS) for patients with PSMA-positive disease. Dr. Morris outlines...

- The pivotal phase 3 VISION study used [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 (also known as 68Ga-PSMA-11) imaging to identify patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer eligible for [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 radioligand therapy, based on predefined read criteria. In this substudy of VISION, the inter-reader variability and intra-reader reproducibility of visual assessments of 68Ga-PSMA-11 positron emission...

- Rashid Sayyid and Zach Klaassen analyze an ad hoc analysis from the VISION study, published in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine. The study investigates the agreement between readers in the interpretation of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scans to determine patient eligibility for 177Lu-PSMA-617 Radioligand Therapy in the treatment of prostate cancer. They elaborate on the study's methodology, including the re...

- Rashid Sayyid and Zach Klaassen, dissect a publication from the VISION study regarding health-related quality of life and pain outcomes with Lu-PSMA-617+ Standard of Care versus Standard of Care alone in patients with mCRPC. This study, conducted across 84 global centers, reveals that the addition of Lu-PSMA-617 to standard care significantly improved overall survival rates from 11.3 to 15.3 month...

- In a discussion between Alicia Morgans and Karim Fizazi, they explore the quality of life outcomes from the VISION trial, published in Lancet Oncology. This Phase III trial examines the effects of Lutetium-PSMA-617 (also known as Pluvicto) on heavily pretreated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients. The study demonstrates a significant 38% reduction in the risk of death. Despite...

- In this discussion, Michael Morris and Alicia Morgans discuss a post hoc analysis of the VISION Trial aimed at assessing earlier maturing time-to-event endpoints. Earlier time-to-event endpoints than overall survival (OS) will allow more timely regulatory approval and overall accelerated drug development. Morris and colleagues aimed to estimate correlations between time-to-event endpoints such as...

- Oliver Sartor joins Alicia Morgans in a discussion on the implementation of PSMA theranostics and treating patients with lutetium in clinical practices. Drs Morgans and Sartor talk through the logistics of this integration, patient selection, and treatment choice for prolonging survival and improving quality of life. Dr. Sartor also highlights potential novel expanded indications that we may see i...
