New Therapies Show Promise for Advanced Prostate Cancer
Recent Findings on Advanced Prostate Cancer Treatments
Emerging treatments for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) are demonstrating notable advancements. Research presented at the SNMMI 2025 meeting highlights the potential of new approaches, giving hope to patients.
Studies presented at the SNMMI meeting have shown promising results for advanced prostate cancer treatments. One study explored the utility of post-therapy SPECT/CT imaging following the first cycle of 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy in detecting interim disease progression, comparing it to pre-therapy PSMA PET/CT scans. Another highlighted the potential of retreatment with Lu-177 PSMA-617 in mCRPC patients.

Approximately 30% of men diagnosed with prostate cancer will experience a recurrence after initial treatment, underscoring the need for effective therapies (American Cancer Society).
Therapy Approaches and Outcomes
Another area of focus is the use of PSMA-targeted radioligand therapies, which have shown efficacy and safety benefits for mCRPC. The research also investigated patient-reported outcomes and skeletal events with Lu-PSMA therapy. The findings underscore the importance of multimodal monitoring to improve outcomes.
These advancements offer new avenues for managing mCRPC, enhancing patient care, and hopefully improving long-term outcomes.
