Leonard S. Marks, MD, explained how the Journal of Urology review on prostate-specific antigen membrane imaging for prostate cancer will affect urologists and patients alike. Watch now.
Over 90% of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who received the PSMA-targeted therapy 225Ac-PSMA-617 had a 50% or greater reduction in their PSA level, according to study findings published online in The Journal of Nuclear Medicine. Read more.
The FDA authorized the launch of the phase 1/2 COBRA trial exploring the novel PSMA-PET imaging agent 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer following definitive therapy. Read more.
“We now have convincing evidence that these tests help identify more sites of prostate cancer," said Michael Leapman, MD. Read more.
The FDA approved the targeted radioligand therapy 177Lu-PSMA-617 (lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan; Pluvicto)for the treatment of patients with PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer in the post androgen receptor pathway inhibition, post taxane-based chemotherapy setting.
