Clinical Trial of Targeted Alpha Therapy for Prostate Cancer

Overview

PSW-1025 is administered intravenously to patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer to evaluate its tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, absorbed dose, and efficacy, as well as to determine the recommended dose for Phase II.

Description

PSW-1025 is administered intravenously to patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer to evaluate its tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, absorbed dose, and efficacy, as well as to determine the recommended dose for Phase II. PSW-1025 (At-211 PSMA-5) is an alpha-ray-emitting drug labeled with Astatine (At-211) that targets PSMA (Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen).

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

Patients with progressive castration-resistant prostate cancer who meet the following conditions (1) and (2) (1) Patients with progressive increase of serum Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) (>=2ng/mL, three consecutive increases at least one week apart, and two increases of more than 50% from the lowest value), or with the tumor growth or appearance of new lesions detected by imaging studies (2) Patients with the serum testosterone at castration level (< 50ng/dL)
2. Patients who meet the following conditions (1) and (2), resistant to standard treatment or not indicated for the generally approved standard treatments (1) Patients who have received at least one of the following treatments
