New hope for tough prostate cancer: drug combo trial launches

NCT ID NCT07047118

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This Phase II trial tests a new drug, JSB462 (luxdegalutamide), combined with a radioactive therapy (Pluvicto) in 138 men with PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that has progressed after prior treatments. The study aims to see if the combination works better than Pluvicto alone and to find the best dose for future studies.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

JSB462 (luxdegalutamide) and lutetium (177Lu) vipivotide tetraxetan (Pluvicto)

What this could lead to

If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard therapies.

What could go wrong

This is a Phase II trial with only 138 participants, so results are preliminary. The combination may not improve outcomes over Pluvicto alone and could cause additional side effects.
