NCT ID NCT06516510

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-phase study compared two radioactive drugs, lutetium rhPSMA-10.1 and Pluvicto, in 17 men with metastatic prostate cancer that cannot be cured. The goal was to see which drug delivers more radiation to tumors and less to healthy organs like the kidneys. The study was terminated early, so findings are limited.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

lutetium (177Lu) rhPSMA-10.1 and lutetium (177Lu) vipivotide tetraxetan (Pluvicto)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could help identify which drug is better at targeting tumors while sparing healthy organs, potentially improving future treatment choices.

What could go wrong

This was a very early, small study (17 people) that was terminated, so results are limited and may not apply to all patients. No treatment benefit was directly tested.
