The purpose of this analysis was to report the safety evaluation of 177Lu-PSMA-617 derived from the cohort of 64 patients exposed to 177Lu-PSMA-617 in the RESIST-PC trial NCT03042312 Methods: RESIST-PC was a prospective multicenter phase 2 trial. Patients with progressive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer after ≥ 1 novel androgen-axis drug, either chemotherapy naïve or postchemotherapy, with sufficient bone marrow reserve, normal kidney function, sufficient PSMA expression by PSMA PET, and no PSMA-negative soft-tissue lesions were eligible. Patients were randomized (1:1) into 2 activity groups (6.0 or 7.4 GBq per cycle) and received up to 4 cycles every 8 wk. The primary safety endpoint was assessed by collecting and grading adverse events using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events. Patients were followed until disease progression, death, serious or intolerable adverse events, study termination by sponsor, patient withdrawal, lost to follow-up, or 24 mo after the first cycle. Results: The study was closed at enrollment of 71 of 200 planned patients because of sponsorship transfer. A total of 64 (90.1%) patients received at least 1 cycle of 177Lu-PSMA-617: 28 (36%) in arm 1 (6.0 GBq) and 41 (64%) in arm 2 (7.4 GBq). There were 10 (43.5%), 19 (46.5%), and 29 (45.3%) patients who completed 4 cycles of 177Lu-PSMA-617 in the 6.0-GBq arm, 7.4-GBq arm, and overall, respectively. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of any grade in the 6.0-GBq arm, the 7.4-GBq arm and overall, were dry mouth (47.8%; 63.4%; 57.8%, respectively), fatigue (56.5%; 51.2%; 53.1%, respectively), nausea (52.2%; 43.9%; 46.9%, respectively), and diarrhea (13.0%; 31.7%; 25.0%, respectively). Frequencies of all other TEAEs were comparable among the 2 groups (within 10% difference). Serious possibly drug-related TEAEs were reported for 5 (7.8%) patients overall (none were considered as probably or definitely related to treatment): 1 subdural hematoma grade 4, 1 anemia grade 3, 1 thrombocytopenia grade 4, 1 gastrointestinal hemorrhage grade 3, and 1 acute kidney injury grade 3. There were no clinically significant changes in vital signs in electrocardiograms in the 2 treatment groups. No trend to creatinine increase or increasing frequency of shifts from normal to abnormal over time for any hematologic parameter was noted. Conclusion: 177Lu-PSMA-617 was safe and well-tolerated at 6.0 and 7.4 GBq per cycle given at 8-wk intervals with side effects easily managed with standard medical support. With established safety, further clinical trials applying individualized dosimetry and testing different 177Lu-PSMA-617 administration schemes (activity levels, time intervals) are needed to optimize tumor dose delivery and treatment efficacy.      «
