Background: Terbium-161 (Tb) emits beta-radiation similar to lutetium-177 (Lu), with additional radiation over ultra-short path lengths from Auger electrons. Tb has shown superior in-vitro and in-vivo efficacy compared with Lu. We aimed to evaluate the safety of [Tb]Tb-PSMA-I&T in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

[Lu]Lu-PSMA is an effective class of therapy for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC); however, progression is inevitable. The limited durability of response may be partially explained by the presence of micrometastatic deposits, which are energy-sheltered and receive low absorbed radiation with Lu due to the approximately 0.7-mm mean pathlength.

The objective of this retrospective study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of two beta-emitting prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) radioligands, [Lu]Lu and [161Tb]Tb, in heavily treated patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). A total of 148 cycles of beta-emitting PSMA radioligand therapy were given to 53 patients at a specialized cancer care center in Amman, Jordan. This treatment was offered following the exhaustion of all prior treatment modalities.

Evaluation of alternative radionuclides for use in prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radioligand therapy (RLT) is currently focusing on Tb, which may provide advantages by emitting additional Auger and conversion electrons. In this pilot study, we present preliminary dosimetry data for [Tb]Tb-PSMA-617 RLT in a direct comparison with [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617. Six patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) underwent treatment with [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 and subsequently - after inadequate response - with [Tb]Tb-PSMA-617.

Radiotheranostics with Lu-PSMA have changed the treatment paradigm in patients with prostate cancer, becoming the new standard in certain settings. Terbium-161 (Tb) has been recently investigated as a potential radionuclide for radiotheranostics in various types of cancer, including metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The nuclear medicine team at King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC) in Amman, Jordan, recently published the first-in-human SPECT/CT imaging results following a well-tolerated dose of Tb-PSMA radioligand therapy with no treatment-related adverse events, adding to the potential of radiotheranostics in prostate cancer.
