Dual 177 Lu-Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen and 177 Lu-DOTATATE Therapy in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer With Neuroendocrine Differentiation

Clin Nucl Med. 2024 May 1;49(5):447-448. doi: 10.1097/RLU.0000000000005131. Epub 2024 Feb 26.

Abstract

We present an 87-year-old man diagnosed with prostate cancer and neuroendocrine differentiation, posttherapy results to consecutive 177 Lu-prostate-specific membrane antigen and 177 Lu-DOTATATE. Despite hormonal therapy and chemoradiotherapy, the patient progressed rapidly, and multiple liver and bone metastases showed regression after 177 Lu-prostate-specific membrane antigen and 177 Lu-DOTATATE treatment. Prostate cancer with neuroendocrine differentiation is resistant to treatments; however, treatment with the combination of 177 Lu-DOTATATE therapy may be promising.
