New combo therapy aims to stall prostate cancer spread
NCT ID NCT05893381
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This phase II trial tests whether adding a radioactive drug called Lu-PSMA to precise radiation therapy can better control prostate cancer that has spread to just 1-3 spots. About 70 men with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer will be randomly assigned to get radiation alone or radiation plus Lu-PSMA. The main goal is to see if the combination delays a rise in PSA levels, a marker of cancer activity.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Lu-PSMA (a radioactive drug) and stereotactic radiotherapy
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this combination could delay cancer progression and the need for hormone therapy in men with a few prostate cancer metastases.
- What could go wrong
- This is a phase II trial with only 70 participants, so results are not definitive. The added radioactive drug may cause side effects like dry mouth or blood cell changes.
