Lesion Dosimetry for [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 Radiopharmaceutical Therapy Combined with Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in Patients with Oligometastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer.

A single-institution prospective pilot clinical trial was performed to demonstrate the feasibility of combining [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for the treatment of oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer. Six patients with 9 prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive oligometastases received 2 cycles of [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 RPT followed by SBRT. After the first intravenous infusion of [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 (7.46 ± 0.15 GBq), patients underwent SPECT/CT at 3.2 ± 0.5, 23.9 ± 0.4, and 87.4 ± 12.0 h. Voxel-based dosimetry was performed with calibration factors (11.7 counts per second/MBq) and recovery coefficients derived from in-house phantom experiments. Lesions were segmented on baseline PSMA PET/CT (50% SUV). After a second cycle of [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 (44 ± 3 d; 7.50 ± 0.10 GBq) and an interim PSMA PET/CT scan, SBRT (27 Gy in 3 fractions) was delivered to all PSMA-avid oligometastatic sites, followed by post-PSMA PET/CT. RPT and SBRT voxelwise dose maps were scaled (α/β = 3 Gy; repair half-time, 1.5 h) to calculate the biologically effective dose (BED). All patients completed the combination therapy without complications. No grade 3+ toxicities were noted. The median of the lesion SUV as measured on PSMA PET was 16.8 (interquartile range [IQR], 11.6) (baseline), 6.2 (IQR, 2.7) (interim), and 2.9 (IQR, 1.4) (post). PET-derived lesion volumes were 0.4-1.7 cm The median lesion-absorbed dose (AD) from the first cycle of [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 RPT (AD) was 27.7 Gy (range, 8.3-58.2 Gy; corresponding to 3.7 Gy/GBq, range, 1.1-7.7 Gy/GBq), whereas the median lesion AD from SBRT was 28.1 Gy (range, 26.7-28.8 Gy). Spearman rank correlation, ρ, was 0.90 between the baseline lesion PET SUV and SPECT SUV ( = 0.005), 0.74 ( = 0.046) between the baseline PET SUV and the lesion AD, and -0.81 ( = 0.022) between the lesion AD and the percent change in PET SUV (baseline to interim). The median for the lesion BED from RPT and SBRT was 159 Gy (range, 124-219 Gy). ρ between the BED from RPT and SBRT and the percent change in PET SUV (baseline to post) was -0.88 ( = 0.007). Two cycles of [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 RPT contributed approximately 40% to the maximum BED from RPT and SBRT. Lesional dosimetry in patients with oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer undergoing [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 RPT followed by SBRT is feasible. Combined RPT and SBRT may provide an efficient method to maximize the delivery of meaningful doses to oligometastatic disease while addressing potential microscopic disease reservoirs and limiting the dose exposure to normal tissues.
