Article Abstract

177 Lu-PSMA-617 radioligand therapy has been US Food and Drug Administration-approved safe and effective treatment modality for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, usually administered in 4 to 6 cycles at 6 to 8 weeks apart. Many patients achieve partial response or stable disease with biochemical response after treatment. However, these effects are usually short-lived, and patients ultimately show disease progression after a median period of 6 to 9 months. Rechallenge therapy appears to be safe and effective treatment modality in such patients. We show the clinical efficacy and safety of re-rechallenge 177 Lu-PSMA radioligand therapy in a 64-year-old man with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with disease progression on multiple lines of hormonal and chemotherapy treatment.

PSMA-targeted radioligand therapies with 177Lu-PSMA-617 have shown promising response rates with favorable toxicity in patients with metastasized castration-resistant prostate cancer. We report a case of a 72-year-old man with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer having comorbidities of DM, HTN, and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on regular hemodialysis. The patient received 2 doses of 7.

Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is an attractive biomarker for tumor-targeting radioligands. While [Ga]Ga-FAPI-46 is a promising FAP-targeting radioligand for cancer diagnosis, clinical application of [Lu]Lu-FAPI-46 for targeted radionuclide therapy is limited due to its insufficient tumor retention. Albumin binder (ALB) including 4-(-iodophenyl)butyric acid is widely utilized to improve tumor accumulation of radioligands.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is increasingly recognized as a multifactorial disorder with vascular contributions, including a pro-coagulant state marked by fibrin deposition in the brain. Fibrin accumulation may exacerbate cerebral hypoperfusion and neuroinflammation, leading to neurodegeneration. Identifying patients with this pathology could enable targeted anticoagulant therapy.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common tumor for men in the genital system. Despite several new therapies approved in the past decades, 34,700 patients die on a regular basis in 2023 in America. Recently radioisotopic therapies have shown the delightful results in the PCa treatment, which made FDA approved lutetium-177 for adult patients with prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

The use of theragnostics in nuclear medicine has significantly advanced, particularly peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) in neuroendocrine tumors. Meningiomas often overexpress somatostatin receptors (SSTR), making them potential candidates for PRRT. However, the lack of large-scale standardized trials limits its clinical application.
