Biopsies reveal secrets of therapy resistance in advanced prostate cancer
NCT ID NCT05398302
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at why some prostate cancers become resistant to a targeted radiation treatment called 177Lu-PSMA. Researchers will take small tissue samples (biopsies) from tumors in 30 patients before and after therapy. The goal is to find genetic changes that cause resistance, which could help doctors plan better treatments in the future.
