AbstractThe aim of the present study was to explore the potential impact of upfront metastases-directed therapy (MDT) in terms of prolongation of castration-sensitive phase in a series of oligorecurrent castration-sensitive prostate cancer (PC) patients. The present article is a multicenter retrospective study. The population of interest was castrate-sensitive oligorecurrent PC, defined as the presence of 1–3 uptakes in non-visceral sites such as bones or nodes detected by means of 18F-Choline PET/CT or 68-Gallium PSMA PET/CT. Primary endpoint was the time to castration resistance. Secondary endpoints were ADT-free survival, local progression-free survival, and overall survival. Eighty-two patients and 118 lesions were analyzed. The median time to castration resistance for the entire population of the study was 49 months (95% CI 43.6–54.4 months). The 1- and 2-year TTCR-free survival rates were 94% and 82%, respectively. At the time of analysis, 52 patients were still in the castration-sensitive phase of the disease. In this cohort of patients, the median ADT-free survival was 20 months (range 3–69 months). On the other hand, during follow-up 30 patients switched to the castration-resistant phase of disease. In this last group of patients, the median ADT-free survival was 20 months (range 4–50 months). After the ADT administration, the median castration-sensitive phase was 29 months (range 5–71 months). Castration resistance generally occurs at a median follow-up of 24–36 months following ADT. In the current study, upfront MDT does not decrease the time from initiation of ADT to castration resistance.

Abstract Background Definitive radiation therapy (dRT) is an effective initial treatment of intermediate-risk (IR) and high-risk (HR) prostate cancer (PCa). PSMA PET/CT is superior to standard of care imaging (CT, MRI, bone scan) for detecting regional and distant metastatic PCa. PSMA PET/CT thus has the potential to guide patient selection and the planning for dRT and improve patient outcomes. Methods This is a multicenter randomized phase 3 trial (NCT04457245). We will randomize 312 patients to proceed with standard dRT (control Arm, n = 150), or undergo a PSMA PET/CT scan at the study site (both 18F-DCFPyL and 68Ga-PSMA-11 can be used) prior to dRT planning (intervention arm, n = 162). dRT will be performed at the treating radiation oncologist facility. In the control arm, dRT will be performed as routinely planned. In the intervention arm, the treating radiation oncologist can incorporate PSMA PET/CT findings into the RT planning. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is administered per discretion of the treating radiation oncologist and may be modified as a result of the PSMA PET/CT results. We assume that approximately 8% of subjects randomized to the PSMA PET arm will be found to have M1 disease and thus will be more appropriate candidates for long-term systemic or multimodal therapy, rather than curative intent dRT. PET M1 patients will thus not be included in the primary endpoint analysis. The primary endpoint is the success rate of patients with unfavorable IR and HR PCa after standard dRT versus PSMA PET-based dRT. Secondary Endpoints (whole cohort) include progression free survival (PFS), metastasis-free survival after initiation of RT, overall survival (OS), % of change in initial treatment intent and Safety. Discussion This is the first randomized phase 3 prospective trial designed to determine whether PSMA PET/CT molecular imaging can improve outcomes in patients with PCa who receive dRT. In this trial the incorporation of PSMA PET/CT may improve the success rate of curative intent radiotherapy in two ways: to optimize patient selection as a biomarker and to personalizes the radiotherapy plan.

277 Background: 18F-Sodium Fluoride (NaF) PET/CT has been shown to be superior to 99mTc-MDP SPECT in detection of bone metastases and shows great promise to reliably measure functional changes in bone. This study assesses the relationship of Progression Free Survival (PFS) with NaF PET/CT measures in patients with metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC). Methods: 55 CRPC patients had NaF PET/CT scans performed at baseline, which was repeated at week 9 if receiving taxane-based therapy (N = 16) or week 12 if receiving androgen-signaling pathway (AR) inhibitors (N = 39). Bone lesions were identified using a novel technique allowing for extraction and tracking of PET metrics from individual lesions at every timepoint. Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were conducted to evaluate associations between imaging metrics and PFS. Results: Median PFS was 8.3 months (range 1.0-30.3+). The strongest predictor of PFS in univariate analysis was total functional burden (SUVtotal) (P < 0.0001) during treatment for all patients. Predictors of PFS differed between both treatment cohorts of patients (Table 1), including number of lesions, fraction of skeletal involvement, and average lesion activity (SUVmean). Maximum PSA benefit (percent decrease) during the first 12 weeks of therapy was highly predictive of PFS in the AR-directed cohort of patients (HR = 1.012 , P = 0.0005), as was change in the number of lesions (HR = 1.01, P = 0.03). Conclusions: There is indication thattotal functional burden of disease during treatment with taxane or AR-directed therapy is a strong predictor of PFS. In addition, change in number of lesions was predictive of treatment efficacy. This supports ongoing development of NaF PET/CT based imaging biomarkers in mCRPC.

TPS332 Background: Lutetium-177 [177Lu]-PSMA-617 is a novel radiolabelled small molecule that binds with high affinity to prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), which is commonly overexpressed in prostate cancer. This treatment has demonstrated promising activity and tolerability in men progressing after multiple lines of chemotherapy and endocrine therapy. This trial will determine the activity and safety of 177Lu-PSMA-617 compared to cabazitaxel chemotherapy in men with progressive metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. Methods: TheraP is an open-label, randomised, two-arm, multi-centre, phase 2 trial comparing the activity and safety of experimental treatment with [177Lu]-PSMA-617 versus standard 2nd line chemotherapy with cabazitaxel. Key eligibility criteria include prior chemotherapy with docetaxel; rising serum PSA; sufficient PSMA avidity according to central reviewed of imaging with PSMA PET/CT and FDG PET/CT; no discordance between FDG PET and PSMA PET. The trial will include 200 participants randomised in a 1:1 ratio to either [177Lu]-PSMA-617 intravenously every 6 weeks, 8.5 GBq for cycle 1, decreasing by 0.5 GBq with each subsequent cycle, up to maximum 6 cycles (experimental group); or, chemotherapy with cabazitaxel (20 mg/m2) intravenously every 3 weeks, for 10 cycles (standard group). In the event of an exceptional response to [177Lu]-PSMA-617, according to centrally-reviewed, post-therapy SPECT imaging, treatment is suspended but can recommence subsequently on progression. The primary endpoint is a 50% or greater reduction from baseline in serum PSA. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, progression-free survival (PFS), PSA-PFS, pain-PFS, radiographic-PFS, health-related quality of life, pain response, and adverse events. The outcomes of patients excluded because of discordant disease on FDG PET and PSMA PET will be reported as a tertiary objective. The study has accrued 79 of 200 planned participants from 29 January 2018 to 23 October 2018. Clinical trial information: NCT03392428.

AbstractTo assess the predictive and prognostic aim of interim and end-treatment 18F-fluorocholine PET/CT (FCH-PET/CT) and 99mTc-methilen diphosphonate bone scintigraphy (BS) in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer and bone metastases (CRPC-BM) treated with Radium 223 dichloride (223Ra). Prospective and multicentre ChoPET-Rad study including 82 patients with CRPC-BM. Baseline, after 3 (interim) and 6 doses (end-treatment) BS and FCH PET/CT were performed in patients who meet the study criteria. Clinical variables, imaging and clinical progression were obtained and their association with progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) was studied. Agreement between BS and FCH PET/CT response was assessed using Kappa (K) analysis. Median of PFS and OS was 3 and 16 months, respectively. Agreement between interim BS and FCH PET/CT was weak (K: 0.28; p = 0.004). No agreement was observed between end-treatment diagnostic studies. Interim and end-treatment FCH PET/CT were related to PFS (p = 0.011 and p < 0.001, respectively). Therapeutic failure and interim BS and FCH PET/CT showed association with OS (p < 0.001, p = 0.037 and p = 0.008, respectively). Interim and end-treatment FCH PET/CT were good predictors of biochemical progression in patients treated with 223Ra. Therapeutic failure and progression in interim BS or FCH PET/CT were adverse factors for OS.
