De Novo high-volume metastatic prostate cancer with primary resistance to standard systemic therapy and exceptional response to PSMA-Lu177: A case report
摘要
Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) Lutetium-177 (Lu-177) therapy is a relatively new theranostic treatment using a targeted radioligand therapy in the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer. PSMA-Lu177 has been approved by the FDA for treatment of prostate cancer in the metastatic castrate resistant setting. Here, we present the case of a 90-year-old man with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and primary resistance to androgen deprivation, second-generation androgen receptor inhibitors, and docetaxel chemotherapy. Despite the lack of response to prior lines of therapy, the patient demonstrated a rapid response to PSMA-Lu177 therapy with a substantial drop in PSA level, starting from the first cycle.
