Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This phase Ib trial studies the dose and schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 and pembrolizumab in treating persons with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. 177Lu-PSMA-617 carries a radioactive component which attached to the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) receptor found on tumor cells. Its radiation component destroys the tumor cell. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving 177Lu-PSMA-617 and pembrolizumab may work better at treating prostate cancer.

Treatment Details

Interventions

  • Lutetium Lu 177-PSMA-617
  • Pembrolizumab
Trial Overview The study tests a combination of 177Lu-PSMA-617 (a radioactive drug targeting prostate cancer cells) and pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy). It aims to find the best dose and schedule for treating advanced prostate cancer by enhancing the body's immune response against tumors.
Participant Groups
4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Part B: Recommended Phase 2 Dosing Schedule (RP2DS) (lutetium Lu 177-PSMA-617, pembrolizumab)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will receive the RP2DS determined in Part A. Treatment with pembrolizumab repeats every 21 days for up to 35 cycles (2 years) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants who achieve SD or better may receive 17 additional cycles (approximately 1 year) of pembrolizumab.
Group II: Part A: Dosing Schedule 3 (lutetium Lu 177-PSMA-617, pembrolizumab)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Starting day -21, participants receive pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes. Participants also receive lutetium Lu 177-PSMA-617 IV over 20-30 minutes on day 1. Treatment with pembrolizumab repeats every 21 days for up to 35 cycles (2 years) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants who achieve SD or better may receive 17 additional cycles (approximately 1 year) of pembrolizumab.
Group III: Part A: Dosing Schedule 2 (lutetium Lu 177-PSMA-617, pembrolizumab)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants receive lutetium Lu 177-PSMA-617 IV over 20-30 minutes and pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment with pembrolizumab repeats every 21 days for up to 35 cycles (2 years) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants who achieve SD or better may receive 17 additional cycles (approximately 1 year) of pembrolizumab.
Group IV: Part A: Dosing Schedule 1 (lutetium Lu 177-PSMA-617, pembrolizumab)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants receive lutetium Lu 177-PSMA-617 IV over 20-30 minutes on day 1. Beginning in cycle 2, participants receive pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment with pembrolizumab repeats every 21 days for up to 35 cycles (2 years) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Participants who achieve stable disease (SD) or better may receive 17 additional cycles (approximately 1 year) of pembrolizumab.
