Phase 2 Trial for 61Cu-NU101 vs 18F-Piflufolastat in Metastatic Prostate Cancer

61Cu-NU101 is a new PSMA-targeted PET/SPECT tracer for prostate cancer that showed promise in phase 1, detecting more lesions than 18F-piflufolastat (Pylarify) in half of the 8 patients studied, with lower background uptake and no side effects. The key advantage is its 3.3-hour half-life, compared to 68 minutes for 68Ga-PSMA-11 and 109 minutes for 18F-piflufolastat. […]

Phase 2 Trial of GV20-0251 With Anti-PD-1 Therapy in mCRPC

GV20-0251 is an experimental antibody that blocks a new immune brake called IGSF8, and this phase 2 study tests it together with anti-PD-1 drugs in people with advanced solid tumors that no longer respond to standard treatment. The goal is to restore early innate immune signaling so checkpoint therapy works better in resistant cancers. From […]

Zanzalintinib After Pluvicto in Chemo‑Naïve mCRPC

Zanzalintinib is being tested after Pluvicto (177Lu-PSMA-617) in metastatic castration‑resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) because it targets several escape routes tumors use once they have survived PSMA‑directed radioligand therapy and prolonged AR pathway blockade. Pluvicto delivers beta radiation to PSMA‑expressing cells, inducing DNA damage and tumor cell death, but progression still occurs and is often driven […]

Zanzalintinib for Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Zanzalintinib is a new investigational drug showing activity in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), particularly in patients with soft tissue or visceral metastases who have progressed on prior treatment. A single-arm Phase II trial is evaluating whether zanzalintinib is effective for this difficult-to-treat population. Participants can stay in the study for up to 24 months […]

The MOMENT Trial: Mevrometostat Plus Enzalutamide in Post‑ARPI, Pre‑Abiraterone mCRPC

Mevrometostat is an oral EZH2 inhibitor being developed to overcome resistance to androgen‑receptor–targeted therapy in prostate cancer. In tumors, EZH2 helps switch off tumor‑suppressor genes and supports androgen‑independent growth and lineage plasticity, changes that are strongly linked to progression on drugs like enzalutamide. Adding an EZH2 inhibitor to continued AR blockade is meant to “re‑discipline” […]

B7-H3 ADC YL201 Delivers Encouraging Results in Advanced mCRPC

YL201, a B7-H3–targeting antibody–drug conjugate, is showing notable activity in advanced metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), including patients who have progressed after androgen receptor–targeted therapy and chemotherapy. In a phase 2 study of 82 heavily pretreated patients, the drug delivered a confirmed PSA50 response rate of 38.5%, an objective response rate of 29.5%, and a […]

Phase 1/2 Trial: Epigenetic KAT6 Inhibitor Plus Darolutamide in mCRPC

A Phase 1b/2 trial is planned to test the investigational KAT6 inhibitor OP-3136 combined with darolutamide in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). About 36 patients will be enrolled, with the study expected to start in the second half of 2026. The focus is on safety, tolerability, and early signs of anti-tumor activity. OP-3136 blocks KAT6A/B, […]

A-DREAM Trial Suggests Some Men with Metastatic Prostate Cancer May Stop Therapy Safely for a Time

A new phase 2 study, A-DREAM / Alliance A032101, suggests that a carefully selected group of men with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer may be able to interrupt androgen deprivation therapy and an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor after achieving an excellent response, while still maintaining a treatment-free interval. The study met its primary endpoint, with 41% […]

Phase 2 TALENT Trial: Talazoparib as Monotherapy or With Enzalutamide in HRR-deficient mCRPC

The TALENT trial is a randomized, open‑label, phase 2 trial evaluating whether adding enzalutamide to talazoparib improves outcomes compared with talazoparib alone in men with metastatic castration‑resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene alterations and have progressed after abiraterone‑based therapy. The trial builds on the phase 3 TALAPRO‑2 results, which showed […]

CONVERGE-01: CONV01-α Shows Activity After Lu-PSMA in mCRPC

Actinium-225 rosopatamab tetraxetan (CONV01-α) is a PSMA-targeted alpha radioligand therapy being tested in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have already received androgen receptor pathway inhibitors, up to one taxane regimen, and 1–6 cycles of lutetium-177 PSMA therapy (Pluvicto), with all patients having PSMA PET–positive disease by VISION criteria. The drug links an alpha […]
