What's to come in PSMA therapies and diagnostics: A summary of clinical trials involving PSMA radioligand-based therapeutic and/or diagnostic approaches with active recruitment.

Trials examining intensification strategies through targeted radiotherapy, combination systemic therapies, and RLTs have the potential to demonstrate improved clinical outcomes using PSMA-PET CT for guidance. We expect that PSMA-PET will become fundamental in the work-up of patients before targeted radiotherapy or surgery. The results of ongoing trials will likely clarify the benefits of PSMA-RLT in metastatic PC including in oligometastatic and hormone-sensitive disease, however, there is a sparsity of trials evaluating PSMA-RLT outside of metastatic prostate cancer. Clinical trials with PSMA PET/CT as an endpoint for disease control are emerging and standardized reporting and metrics for PSMA staging and response will facilitate the inclusion of PSMA PET endpoints into therapeutic trials.
