Phase I/II Study of [225Ac]Ac-PSMA-R2 in PSMA-positive Prostate Cancer, With/Without Prior 177Lu-PSMA RLT

PHASE1ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING

The purpose of this study is to learn if the study drug, \[225Ac\]Ac-PSMA-R2, is safe and tolerable, and has anti-tumor activity in treated patients.

Study details:

First in human (FIH) phase I/II study of 225Ac-PSMA-R2 in PSMA-positive metastatic prostate cancer across three groups: post-177Lu mCRPC, pre-177Lu mCRPC, and 177Lu-naïve mHSPC, evaluating Q6W/Q4W dosing. Dose escalation will enroll \~18-22 participants per group/schedule to define MTD/RDE, guided by safety, tolerability, PK/dosimetry, and preliminary anti-tumor activity, with possible expansion based on benefit-risk. Enrollment and dosing for all participants in Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3 have been completed.

Further enrollment has been halted, and no additional dose escalation cohorts or Phase 2 dose expansion cohorts will be opened; enrollment in this study is now considered complete. The decision to halt enrolment was not driven by any safety concerns identified in the study to date, but rather by a lowered expectation of benefit. Accordingly, the study will not proceed to Phase 2, and a recommended Phase 2 dose was not established.

How is the study designed?

Participant Group/ArmIntervention/Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Group-1 (mCRPC/ post-177Lu)
  • 1. Dose Escalation: All eligible participants with Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) who have received anti-cancer treatment (post-Androgen Receptor Pathway Inhibitors (ARPI), post-taxane based chemotherapy and heavily pre-treated and having already received prior 177Lu-labelled Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA)-targeting Radioligand Therapy (RLT) will receive the starting dose of 7 Megabecquerel (MBq) of 225Ac-PSMA-R2 to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose/Recommended Dose for Expansion (MTD/RDE) of Group 1.
  • 2. Dose Expansion: Once RDE is determined for Group 1, participants who have previously received 177Lu-PSMA-RLT will be enrolled in Group 1 dose expansion.
Drug: 225Ac-PSMA-R2, Radiation: 68Ga-PSMA-R2, Radiation: 68Ga-PSMA-11
    EXPERIMENTAL: Group-2 (mCRPC/ pre-177Lu)
    • 1. Dose Escalation: All eligible participants with mCRPC who have received anti-cancer treatment (post-Androgen Receptor Pathway Inhibitors (ARPI), prior taxane-based chemotherapy is not required, but have never been treated with 177Lu-labelled PSMA-targeted RLT (177Lu-labelled PSMA-targeted RLT treatment naïve) will receive the starting dose of 7 Megabecquerel (MBq) of 225Ac-PSMA-R2 to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose/Recommended Dose for Expansion (MTD/RDE) of Group 2.
    • 2. Dose Expansion: Once RDE is determined for Group 2, participants naïve to 177Lu-labelled PSMA-targeted Radioligand Therapy (RLT) will be enrolled in Group 2 dose expansion.
