Can targeted radiation tame advanced prostate cancer? a registry aims to find out
NCT ID NCT05995236
First seen Aug 04, 2026 · Last updated Aug 05, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study collects real-world data from people with PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who receive PSMA radionuclide therapy. The goal is to track patient characteristics, treatment responses, and survival outcomes. By gathering this information, researchers hope to better understand how this targeted therapy performs in everyday clinical practice.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- PSMA radionuclide therapy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help clarify how well PSMA radionuclide therapy works in real-world patients, potentially guiding better treatment decisions for advanced prostate cancer.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational registry, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove the therapy's effectiveness. Results may vary due to differences in patient care and follow-up.

Who is studied
The plan for Methodist Dallas Medical Center will be to collect data from 10-20 patients with PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer per year for anticipated 50-100 total patients over the next five years. We estimated this number based on the number of patient with prostate cancer treated within Methodist Heath System.
