Prostate cancer (PC) is the second most common cancer worldwide in men, with persistently high numbers dying from this disease. Recent studies have demonstrated the possibility of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy as a viable treatment option in mCRPC. To increase tumor accumulation and retention for radioligand therapy, and reduce dosage of 177Lu, the investigators conjugated a truncated Evans blue (EB) molecule and DOTA chelator onto PSMA-617 (EB-PSMA-617) and label it with 177Lu.
The study is open-label and patients will be divided into three groups and monitored throughout the 6 to 10-month treatment period for survival, disease progression, and adverse events to evaluate the safety and therapy response to the 177Lu-EB-PSMA-617.
