A phase 2, single-arm trial evaluating 131 I-PSMA-1095 targeted radioligand therapy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Background: Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) remains uniformly lethal. Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a transmembrane glycoprotein overexpressed in prostate cancer. 131 I-PSMA-1095 (also known as 131 I-MIP-1095) is a PSMA-targeted radioligand which selectively delivers therapeutic radiation to cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment.

Outcomes and Factors Associated with Completion of Radium-223 Therapy.

Purpose: Radium-223 has been demonstrated in clinical trials to improve survival in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients with bone metastases. However, its performance in routine use remains to be fully characterized. This study aims to describe patient outcomes in the real world as well as identify factors associated with completion of the 6-dose regimen and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) response.

Biopsy-Proven Diffuse Mediastinal Prostate Cancer Metastases Negative on 18F-Fluorocholine, Diagnosed on 68Ga-PSMA and 18F-PSMA PET/CT.

A 72-year-old man with prostate cancer (stage T3b, Gleason score 7) treated by radical prostatectomy was found to have biochemical failure (prostate-specific antigen 8.5 ng/mL) and a suspicious growing nodularity at the left prostate bed on MRI. F-fluorocholine PET/CT failed to demonstrate any site of uptake suggestive of malignancy.
