Registration Number

Brief Summary

This is an open label, phase I/II, multi-center study in adult participants with metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) and with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have received prior anti-cancer treatment and have a positive 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET scan. The purpose of this study is to learn if the study drug, \[225Ac\]Ac-PSMA-R2, is safe and tolerable, and has anti-tumor activity in treated patients.

Detailed Description

The study contains three groups (Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3). Each group has a dose escalation part at a specific dosing schedule followed by a dose expansion part. The dose escalation parts in each group within each dosing schedule will establish the maximum tolerated dose or the recommended dose for expansion (MTDs/RDEs) of the 225Ac-PSMA-R2. Dose escalation decisions will be made by the Investigators and Novartis during dose escalation meetings (DEMs) based on safety and tolerability information. The dose expansion parts in each group group/dosing schedule will assess the anti-tumor activity in the mHSPC and mCRPC populations.
