Outcomes of [ <sup>177</sup> Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 ( <sup>177</sup> Lu-PSMA-617) after sipuleucel-T in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): A real-world prostate cancer disease observation (PRECISION) data platform analysis.
Abstract
88 Background: The VISION (NCT03511664) and PSMAfore (NCT04689828) clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 in patients with mCRPC who have previously received androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) with or without taxane-based chemotherapy. Sipuleucel-T is used for treatment of mCRPC in routine clinical practice, particularly among community urologists; however, to date, there are no data available to understand the effectiveness of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 in patients previously treated with sipuleucel-T. Methods: This was a retrospective, observational study of adult patients with a diagnosis of mCRPC who received 177 Lu-PSMA-617 between March 23, 2022, and June 27, 2025, and had a history of treatment with sipuleucel-T. Data were obtained from the PRECISION data platform, a harmonized dataset of patients with advanced prostate cancer in the US that integrates electronic health records and claims data from community, academic, urology, and medical oncology settings. The index date was the date of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 initiation. Patient characteristics and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response rates were evaluated descriptively. Progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time from 177 Lu-PSMA-617 initiation to disease progression or death, was analyzed using Kaplan–Meier curves. Results: A total of 290 patients met the inclusion criteria, of whom 72% were White and 12% were Black. At index, 32% of patients were treated in urology and 68% in oncology settings. The median age was 74 years, the median baseline PSA was 35.3 ng/mL (interquartile range [IQR] 10.0–99.2 ng/mL), and 57% of patients had a Gleason score of ≥8. In addition to sipuleucel-T, prior to 177 Lu-PSMA-617, 97% of patients had received ≥1 ARPI and 79% had received ≥1 taxane. The median follow-up for this cohort was 9.4 months (IQR 5.3–17.5 months). Among 144 patients with available PSA values both before and during 177 Lu-PSMA-617 treatment (representing 50% of the cohort), PSA response rates were as follows: a ≥50% reduction in PSA from baseline (PSA50) was observed in 60%, PSA80 in 42%, and PSA90 in 33% of patients. Overall, the median PFS was 15.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 11.6–19.4 months). Conclusions: In this real-world analysis of patients who received 177 Lu-PSMA-617 after sipuleucel-T treatment, the median PFS was similar to that observed in clinical trials, suggesting that 177 Lu-PSMA-617 can be sequenced after sipuleucel-T treatment in appropriate patients.
