New radioactive drug targets Hard-to-Treat prostate cancer

NCT ID NCT05603559

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-phase trial is testing two new radioactive drugs, 177Lu-P17-087 and 177Lu-P17-088, in 30 people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that has stopped responding to other treatments. The study first checks how the drug spreads in the body and its safety, then tests higher doses to find the best amount. The goal is to see if this approach can safely deliver radiation directly to cancer cells.
