Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To assess a potential survival benefit (2-year survival rate) of patients treated with Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan (177Lu-PSMA-617) therapy on a flexible dosing schedule including up to 12 cycles and potential “treatment holiday” periods in comparison to patients treated with the standard fixed dosing schedule of maximum 6 treatment cycles every 6 weeks.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the safety of the flexible/extended schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy.
II. To compare the overall survival (OS) of the flexible/extended schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy to the standard-of-care schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy.
III. To compare the progression-free survival (PFS) of the flexible/extended schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy to the standard-of-care schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy.
IV. To compare the disease control rate (DCR) of the flexible/extended schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy to the standard-of-care schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy.
V. To compare the impact on bone pain level of the flexible/extended schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy to the standard-of-care schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy.
VI. To compare the impact on health-related quality of life of the flexible/extended schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy to the standard-of-care schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
I. To determine the dosimetry in organs and tumor lesions of the flexible/extended schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to one of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive 177Lu-PSMA-617 intravenously (IV) once every 6 weeks on study. Treatment repeats every 6 weeks for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo post-therapeutic SPECT/CT at every cycle. The flexible dosing schedule in the investigational arm will be based on prostate specific antigen (PSA) and SPECT/CT response assessments obtained 24h after injection of LuPSMA therapy cycle. Based on their response to therapy, patients may be eligible for “treatment holiday” periods. The monitoring during treatment holiday period will be based on PSMA PET/CT every 12 weeks. If disease progresses patients will re-enter the dosing schedule for up to 12 cycles total, every 6 weeks. Patients also receive gallium Ga-68 gozetotide (68Ga-PSMA-11) IV and undergo prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/CT (PSMA PET/CT) on the trial.
ARM II: Patients receive 177Lu-PSMA-617 IV once every 6 weeks on study. Treatment repeats every 6 weeks for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo post therapeutic SPECT/CT throughout the trial. Patients also receive 68Ga-PSMA-11 IV and undergo PSMA PET/CT on the trial.
Upon completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 24 months from after first cycle of study treatment.
