Comparison of 177Lu-PSMA-617 and 225Ac-PSMA-617 for the Treatment of Prostate Adenocarcinoma, LUTACT Trial
This phase I trial compares 225Ac-PSMA-617 to 177Lu-PSMA-617 for the treatment of prostate adenocarcinoma. 225Ac-PSMA-617 and 177Lu-PSMA-617 are types of radioligand therapy. Radioactive drugs, such as 225Ac-PSMA-617 and 177Lu-PSMA-617, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. This study compares the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of 225Ac-PSMA-617 and 177Lu-PSMA-617 in treating patients with prostate adenocarcinoma.

- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 2 x the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN). For participants with known Gilbert’s Syndrome ≤ 3 x ULN is permitted
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
- Participants must provide consent to comply to recommended radioprotection precautions during study
- Participants must use adequate contraception and not donate sperm while on study drug and for at least 14 weeks after the last study treatment
Exclusion Criteria
- Has received prior prostate cancer therapy * Prior 5-alpha reductase inhibitors (e.g. finasteride, dutasteride) allowed if discontinued at least 3 weeks prior to treatment start
- Has participated in a study of an investigational therapeutic product and received study treatment or used an investigational device within four weeks of the first dose of treatment
- Dry mouth that impacts the eating of food (ie requiring mouthwash prior to eating)
- Concurrent serious (as determined by the principal investigator) medical conditions including, but not limited to New York Heart Association class III or IV congestive heart failure, history of congenital prolonged QT syndrome, uncontrolled infection, known active hepatitis B or C or other significant co-morbid conditions that in the opinion of the investigator would impair study participation or cooperation
- Diagnosed with other malignancies that are expected to alter life expectancy or may interfere with disease assessment. However, participants with a prior history of malignancy that has been adequately treated and who have been disease free, treatment free for more than 3 years prior to randomization, or participants with adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer are eligible
- Individuals with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen
- Additional exclusion criteria applicable only to participants undergoing intraarterial administration of PSMA RLT: * Severe allergy to iodinated contrast * Severe atherosclerosis from prior CT imaging study, or greater than 10 pack-year smoking history if no prior imaging available

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Compare the tumor absorbed dose between infusion of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan (177Lu-PSMA-617) and actinium Ac 225 vipivotide tetraxetan (225Ac-PSMA-617).
II. Compare the immunologic priming of 177Lu-PSMA-617 and 225Ac-PSMA-617 with controls in prostatectomy specimens.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the safety and tolerability of neoadjuvant 177Lu-PSMA-617 and 225Ac-PSMA-617 in participants with high or very high risk prostate cancer planning to undergo radical prostatectomy.
II. Estimate prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response for 177Lu-PSMA-617 and 225Ac-PSMA-617 treatment.
III. Estimate the rate of pathologic response in participants treated with 177Lu-PSMA-617 and 225Ac-PSMA-617.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the relationship between percent cell necrosis and tumor absorbed dose for both 177Lu-PSMA-617 and 225Ac-PSMA-617.
II. Compare the heterogeneity of cell necrosis for 177Lu-PSMA-617 and 225Ac-PSMA-617.
III. Compare messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression profiles of tumor treated with 177Lu-PSMA-617, 225Ac-PSMA-617, and controls.
IV. Compare mRNA expression profiles of tumors in participants who achieve a greater than 50% decrease in PSA (PSA50) response and those that do not.
V. Compare mRNA expression profiles of tumors from archival tissue and at time of prostatectomy.
VI. Compare the percent cell necrosis between participants receiving a single cycle of prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) radioligand therapy (RLT) versus participants receiving two cycles of PSMA RLT.
VII. Compare the change in uptake on PSMA positron emission tomography (PET) to PSA response and percent cell necrosis.
VIII. Descriptively evaluate cell necrosis at the tumor margins.
OUTLINE: Patients receiving RLT are randomized to 1 of 2 cohorts, patients not receiving RLT are assigned to the control cohort.
COHORT 1: Patients receive 177Lu-PSMA-617 intravenously (IV) or intraarterially (IA) on cycle (C) 1 day (D) 1. Patients who received IV administration may also receive 177Lu-PSMA-617 IV six weeks following C1D1 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Four weeks after the completion of RLT, patients undergo standard of care (SOC) prostatectomy. Additionally, patients undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) during screening, blood sample collection and PSMA PET throughout the trial, and tissue sample collection and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT) on study. Patients who receive IA administration also undergo catheter angiography on study.
COHORT 2: Patients receive 225Ac-PSMA-617 IV or IA on C1D1. Patients who received IV administration may also receive 225Ac-PSMA-617 IV six weeks following C1D1 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Four weeks after the completion of RLT, patients undergo SOC prostatectomy. Additionally, patients undergo MRI during screening, blood sample collection and PSMA PET throughout the trial, and tissue sample collection and SPECT/CT on study. Patients who receive IA administration also undergo catheter angiography on study.
CONTROL COHORT: Patients undergo SOC prostatectomy four weeks from screening. Additionally, patients undergo MRI and PSMA PET during screening, blood sample collection throughout the trial, and tissue sample collection on study.
After completion of study treatment, patients in cohorts 1 and 2 are followed up at 42 days and 3, 6, 12, and 60 months after surgery. Patients in the control cohort are followed up at 42 days and 12 and 24 months after surgery.
