Inactive

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06066437

This study is testing a new treatment using a drug called 177Lu rhPSMA-10.1 to see if it is safe for patients with high-risk, localized prostate cancer. The trial will also explore how this drug, alone or with hormone therapy, affects the cancer before surgery.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The purpose of this study is to determine if the drug 177Lu rhPSMA-10.1 is safe for patients with high-risk, localized prostate cancer. The study will also look at how this drug, with or without hormone therapy, affects the cancer before surgery to remove it.

Description

The main goal of this study is to check the safety of the drug 177Lu rhPSMA-10.1 and see how it affects the radiation dose to the tumor in patients with high-risk prostate cancer before surgery. The study will also look at how the drug, with or without hormone therapy, affects the cancer's appearance under a microscope and its activity on scans. Researchers will evaluate how well the treatment works in shrinking the cancer before surgery and explore potential markers that might predict the treatment's effectiveness.
