Phase I dose escalation study with combination of 177Lu-J591 and 177Lu-PSMA-617 using a dose-fractionated regimen will be performed in patients with documented progressive metastatic CRPC. The cumulative 177Lu-J591 dose for each subject will be 2.7 GBq/m2 (73 mCi/m2) of 177Lu with 20 mg J591 and the cumulative 177Lu-PSMA-617 dose for each subject will vary (depending on the Cohort) from 3.7 GBq (100 mCi) to 18.5 GBq (500 mCi). The 177Lu-PSMA-617 dose will be escalated in up to 6 different dose levels (3+3 dose-escalation study / de-escalation design). For the phase II portion, a minimum number of 14 patients will be enrolled at MTD (including those enrolled at MTD in Phase I) and a maximum of 24.

This is an open-label, single-center Phase I dose-escalation study designed to determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of combination of 177Lu-J591 and 177Lu-PSMA-617 in a two-week dose-fractionation regimen. 177Lu-J591 will be given at a moderate dose previously demonstrated to be safe x2 infusions two weeks apart. For 177Lu-PSMA-617 the dose escalation will start at 3.7 GBq (100 mCi) and escalate in increments of 1.85 GBq (50 mCi) for each dose to a planned maximum of 9.25 GBq (250 mCi) x2 doses, 2 weeks apart. Should there be unacceptable toxicity at the initial dose level, we will de-escalate to dose level -1 (1.85 GBq / 50 mCi per dose). After the phase I study has established a MTD, the Phase II, single-arm trial will start.

Patients must have documented progressive metastatic CRPC disease based on Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3) criteria in order to be eligible for enrollment. Upon meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria and signing the informed consent and HIPPA form, subjects will undergo the screening. As part of the screening, subjects will get a single dose of 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC and will have a PET/CT. Nuclear Medicine physician(s) will review the PET/CT scans to document PSMA expression at tumor site(s).

Subjects will have Lutetium-177 Planar/SPECT Imaging on Day 8 (±1 day) after the first dose of 177Lu-J591 + 177Lu-PSMA-617. Optimal images will be performed on selected consenting subjects between the initial treatment visit #1 on Day 1 and Day 4 and prior to treatment visit #2 on D15 ±1. Subjects will be closely monitored for AEs (weekly x2 weeks, then every 2 weeks for one month, at 8 and 12 weeks, and then every 4 weeks for next 3 months).

Upon completion of investigational treatment with dose-fractionation regimen of the combination of 177Lu-J591 + 177Lu-PSMA-617, subjects will undergo 68Ga-PSMA-HBED-CC injection and same day PET/CT at the end of study visit to document treatment response. Subsequently survival data and additional treatment(s) information will be captured from their routine Standard of care (SOC) visits.

3. ECOG performance status of 0-2

4. Have serum testosterone < 50 ng/dL. Subjects must continue primary androgen deprivation with an LHRH/GnRH analogue (agonist/antagonist) if they have not undergone bilateral orchiectomy.

5. Have previously been treated with at least one of the following:

   • Androgen receptor signaling inhibitor (such as enzalutamide)
   • CYP 17 inhibitor (such as abiraterone acetate)

6. Have previously received taxane chemotherapy, been determined to be ineligible for taxane chemotherapy by their physician, or refused taxane chemotherapy.

9. Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Implantation of investigational medical device ≤4 weeks of Treatment visit #1 (Day 1) or current enrollment in oncologic investigational drug or device study
2. Use of investigational drugs ≤4 weeks or <5 half-lives of Treatment visit # 1(Day 1) or current enrollment in investigational oncology drug or device study
3. Prior systemic beta-emitting bone-seeking radioisotopes
4. Known active brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease
5. History of deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolus within 1 month of Treatment visit #1
6. Other serious illness(es) involving the cardiac, respiratory, CNS, renal, hepatic or hematological organ systems which might preclude completion of this study or interfere with determination of causality of any adverse effects experienced in this study
7. Radiation therapy for treatment of PC ≤4 weeks of Treatment visit #1
8. Patients on stable dose of bisphosphonates or denosumab, which have been started no less than 4 weeks prior to treatment start, may continue on this medication, however patients are not allowed to initiate bisphosphonate/Denosumab therapy during the DLT-assessment period of the study.

Subjects who have documented progressive metastatic CRPC disease, who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be eligible for participation in this study.

Adverse events were assessed and documented at each scheduled study visit and follow-up visit. Serious adverse events include death, life threatening adverse experiences, hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, disability or incapacitation, overdose, congenital anomalies and any other serious events that may jeopardize the subject or require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition.

The study was terminated early due to sponsor withdrawal (PSMA-617 no longer available for purchase).
