Overview

Lutetium Lu-177 vipivotide tetraxetan is a radioligand therapeutic agent. It consists of a radionuclide, lutetium Lu-177, linked to a moiety that binds to PSMA, a transmembrane protein that is expressed in prostate cancer. Lutetium Lu-177 vipivotide tetraxetan was first approved by the FDA on March 23, 2022 as a treatment for prostate-specific membrane antigen–positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. In October 2022, the EMA's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) recommended lutetium Lu-177 vipivotide tetraxetan be granted marketing authorization for the treatment of prostate cancer. In December 2022, lutetium Lu-177 vipivotide tetraxetan was approved by the EMA.
