Imaging and photodynamic therapy of prostate cancer using a theranostic PSMA-targeting ligand

Yvonne H. W. Derks et al.

Summary: A new approach called PSMA-tPDT combining fluorescence-guided surgery and tumor-targeted photodynamic therapy (tPDT) has been developed to achieve complete resection of prostate cancer. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that PSMA-tPDT significantly reduced cell viability, delayed tumor growth, and improved survival rate. Experiments on fresh human PCa tissue also demonstrated the effectiveness of PSMA-tPDT.

Eligibility for 177Lu-PSMA Therapy Depends on the Choice of Companion Diagnostic Tracer: A Comparison of 68Ga-PSMA-11 and 99mTc-MIP-1404 in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Gary J. R. Cook et al.

Summary: 177Lu-PSMA-617 is an effective therapy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The study reveals differences in biodistribution and liver activity between 99mTc-MIP-1404 and 68Ga-PSMA-11 tracers, suggesting the need for adjusted lesion-to-liver ratio if 99mTc-MIP-1404 is used for 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy.

A Single-Arm, Low-Dose, Prospective Study of 177 Lu-EB-PSMA Radioligand Therapy in Patients with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Guochang Wang et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the safety and therapeutic efficacy of 177Lu-EB-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) radioli-gand therapy (RLT) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The results suggest that 177Lu-EB-PSMA RLT may achieve comparable PSA response and hematologic toxicity to 177Lu-PSMA-617, but further studies are needed to evaluate its potential benefits.

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Summary: The study evaluated the prognostic utility of radiographic PSMA expression in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), showing that high PSMA expression was associated with shorter overall survival and emerged as an independent prognostic factor. This suggests that therapeutic targeting of PSMA-avid disease may improve outcomes in mCRPC patients.

Towards Targeted Alpha Therapy with Actinium-225: Chelators for Mild Condition Radiolabeling and Targeting PSMA-A Proof of Concept Study

Falco Reissig et al.

Summary: This study focused on finding a universal chelator for the radiolabeling of Ac-225 and developed an aza-macrocycle-derived mcp chelator with functional groups for universal connection of biomolecules using click chemistry. The resulting Ac-225-radioconjugates showed high receptor affinity on tumor cells and high tumor accumulation in tumor-bearing mice. The synthesized chelators have the potential to improve the treatment of addressable tumor targets by overcoming stability obstacles and better labeling needs for Ac-225 complexation.

177Lu-PSMA-RLT of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer: limitations and improvements

Jianpeng Cao et al.

Summary: The prevalence of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer is increasing, with a poor prognosis. PSMA as a highly expressed target in mCRPC is attractive for diagnosis and treatment. While Lu-177-PSMA-RLT has shown effectiveness in most studies, about 1/3 of mCRPC patients do not benefit from it, possibly due to factors such as tumor lesions, PSMA heterogeneity, DNA repair defects, and accelerated repopulation.
