New radiation cocktail aims to stop prostate cancer before it spreads
NCT ID NCT06881823
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study was designed to test two experimental drugs, AAA602 and AAA802, which deliver radiation directly to prostate cancer cells. Men with high-risk localized prostate cancer would have received these drugs before surgery to remove the prostate and nearby lymph nodes. The goal was to see if this approach could lower the chance of cancer returning. However, the trial was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- AAA602 (Lutetium-177) and AAA802 (Actinium-225) - targeted radiation drugs that seek out prostate cancer cells
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could reduce the risk of prostate cancer returning after surgery by destroying cancer cells before the operation.
- What could go wrong
- This trial was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available. The drugs may cause side effects from radiation, and it is unknown if they will improve outcomes compared to standard treatment.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Adults ≥ 18 years of age. * Participants must have PSMA-positive disease as assessed by PSMA PET/CT scan using a PSMA imaging agent as protocol instructed, with eligibility being determined by the sponsor's central reading rules. * Histologically confirmed high-risk adenocarcinoma of an intact prostate, and (a) 1 of the following at diagnosis: Gleason score ≥ 8 and/or PSA ≥ 20 nanogram per milliliters (ng/mL), and/or ≥ cT3a or (b) Gleason score 4+3 and PSA ≥ 20 nanogram per milliliters (ng/mL). * Adequate organ function: * Bone marrow reserve: * White blood cell (WBC) count ≥ 3.0 x 109/L and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L. * Platelets ≥ 75 x 109/L. * Hemoglobin ≥ 8 g/dL * Hepatic function: * Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN). For participants with known Gilbert's Syndrome ≤ 3 x ULN is permitted. * Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3.0 x ULN * Albumin \> 3.0 g/dL * Renal function: * Creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min. Note that participants with findings indicating blockage of urinary outflow are not eligible. No evidence of congenital renal abnormalities with known effect on renal function or voiding abnormalities that may interfere, in the opinion of the principal investigator, with the safe administration of the study treatment. * An Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) of 0 or 1. * Indicated to receive radical prostatectomy (RP) and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). * Sexually active participants with female partners of childbearing potential are eligible to participate if they agree to follow one of the following methods of contraception consistently, starting from screening, during the study and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study treatment: * Are abstinent from penile-vaginal intercourse as their usual and preferred lifestyle (abstinent on a long-term and persistent basis) and agree to remain abstinent. * Are sterilized (with the appropriate post-vasectomy documentation of the absence of sperm in the ejaculate); * Agree to use a male condom and have their partner use a highly effective method of contraception (failure rate \< 1% per year) as described in Section 8.4.6 when having penile-vaginal intercourse with a woman of childbearing potential who is not currently pregnant, and who agrees to the use of a condom by her partner. * In addition, participants must refrain from donating sperm starting from Screening, during the study and for at least 6 months after the last dose of the study medication. * Sexually active participants with a pregnant or breastfeeding partner must agree to remain abstinent from penile-vaginal intercourse; or use a male condom during each episode of penile penetration during the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Subjects taking prohibited therapies as described in the protocol * Any approved or investigational systemic anti-cancer therapy (e.g. chemotherapy, investigational therapy, immunotherapy or biological therapy including monoclonal antibodies) administered for the treatment of HRLPC within 28 days (or 5 times the half-life of that therapy whichever is longer) of the anticipated day C1D1. * Previous treatment with any approved or investigational radioligand therapy, approved or investigational radioisotopes. * Prior or concurrent radiation therapy of the prostate, other prostate antineoplastic ablative procedures, or hormonal ablation for prostate cancer. * Diagnosed with other active malignancies that are expected to alter life expectancy or may interfere with disease assessment. Participants with a prior history of malignancy that has been adequately treated and who have been disease free and treatment free for more than 3 years prior to randomization are eligible, as are participants with adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer and superficial bladder cancer. Other protocol-defined Inclusion/exclusion may apply.
