Study Summary

This trial will assess the safety of a drug (177Lu rhPSMA-10.1) to treat high-risk prostate cancer before surgery, with and without hormone therapy.

Who is the study for?
Men over 18 with high-risk, localized prostate cancer who haven't had previous treatments and are candidates for surgery. They must have a certain tumor size on MRI, no metastatic disease or positive lymph nodes (unless allowed by the doctor), good liver and kidney function, adequate bone marrow function, and agree to use condoms during sexual activity.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Nautilus Trial is testing the safety of a drug called 177Lu rhPSMA-10.1 alone (Arm A) and combined with hormone therapy Degarelix (Arm B) in men before they undergo surgery for high-risk prostate cancer. The trial will proceed to Phase 2 if Phase 1 shows that the dose is safe.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to radiation exposure such as fatigue, nausea, changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, potential kidney issues due to PSMA expression in renal tubules, and hormonal side effects from Degarelix.
