[Interdisciplinary expert consensus on innovations in imaging diagnostics and radionuclide-based therapies for advanced prostate cancer].

ABSTRACT:

Background

Numerous diagnostic and therapeutic innovations in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer, both in the hormone-sensitive and in the castration-resistant situation, recently led to a new orientation in the management of this tumor. However, there are potential indications beyond the ones covered by the S3 guideline on early detection, diagnosis and therapy of prostate cancer in clinical care that might be helpful for patients.

Objectives

Since July 2018, an interdisciplinary group of experts from nuclear medicine, radiologists, radio-oncologists and urologists developed a consensus paper on state-of-the-art innovations in imaging diagnostics and radionuclide-based therapies for advanced prostate cancer.

Conclusions

Provided by the working group are suggestions and strategies to improve the implementation of new imaging techniques such as multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI), PSMA-PET/CT (prostate-specific membrane antigen-positron emission tomography/computed tomography) and innovative therapeutic options (radium-223 dichloride, lutetium-177-PSMA) in the complex treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Project description:BackgroundProstate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) has demonstrated efficacy and tolerability with a dose-response effect in phase I/II trials in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The need for positive PSMA imaging before PSMA-TRT to select patients is largely practiced, but its utility is not proven. Given target heterogeneity, developing a biomarker to identify the optimal patient population remains an unmet need. The aim of this study was to assess PSMA uptake by imaging and response to PSMA-TRT.MethodsWe performed an analysis of men with mCRPC enrolled in sequential prospective phase I/II trials of PSMA-TRT. Each patient had baseline PSMA imaging by planar 111 In and/or 177 Lu SPECT (N = 171) or 68 Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT (N = 44), but the results were not used to include/exclude treatment. Semiquantitative imaging scores (IS) on a 0-4 scale were assigned based on PSMA uptake in tumors compared to liver uptake. We compared the ≥50% PSA decline response proportions between low (0-1) and high (2-4) PSMA IS using the χ2 -test. We used multivariable logistic regression analysis to understand the relationship between independent and dependent variables, including IS, radionuclide activity (dose) administered, CALGB (Halabi) prognostic risk score, prior taxane use.Results215 men with progressive mCRPC received PSMA-TRT as follows: 177 Lu-J591 (n = 137), 177 Lu-PSMA-617 (n = 44), 90 Y-J591 (n = 28), 177 Lu-J591 + 177 Lu-PSMA-617 (n = 6). High PSMA expression (IS 2-4) was found in 160 (74.4%) patients and was significantly associated with more frequent ≥ 50% PSA reduction (26.2 vs. 7.3%, p = .006). On multivariate logistic regression analysis, higher IS was associated with a ≥50% decrease in PSA, even after accounting for CALGB (Halabi) prognostic score, the dose administered, and previous taxane use (OR, 4.72; 95% CI, 1.71-16.85; p = .006). Patients with low PSMA expression (N = 55, 24.7%) were less likely to respond. Thirteen of 26 (50%) with no PSMA uptake (IS = 0) had post-PSMA-TRT PSA decline with 2 (7.7%) having ≥ 50% PSA declines.ConclusionCollectively, the data provide evidence in favor of the hypothesis that patients with high PSMA uptake and high administered radionuclide dose correlate with a higher chance of response.

Project description:IntroductionWith the availability of an increasing number of therapeutic options for advanced prostate cancer (APC), optimal sequencing and combination of therapies have emerged to be the areas of challenges. In the Indian context, there is a dearth of consensus recommendations to guide clinicians regarding optimal sequencing of therapy in APC management. A Delphi-based consensus regarding optimal therapy sequencing in APC management was developed by an expert panel of medical oncologists from across India.MethodsAn expert scientific committee of 11 medical oncologists and an expert panel of 53 medical oncologists from India constituted the panel for the Delphi consensus. In the first phase, a questionnaire with 41 clinical statements was developed in several critical controversial areas in APC treatment. In the second phase, 29 clinical statements were reworked and sent to eight experts to obtain their opinions on best practices. The consensus ratings were based on a 9-point Likert scale. Based on the overall response, statements with a mean score of ≥ 7 with 1 outlier were considered as "consensus."ResultsDegarelix was the preferred androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). While ADT plus docetaxel was the preferred option for metastatic castrate-sensitive/naïve prostate cancer patients with high-volume disease, ADT with abiraterone was the preferred choice for low-volume disease. Docetaxel was the preferred first-line treatment option in men who received ADT alone in the castrate-sensitive/naïve setting. For patients progressing on or after docetaxel for metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (without prior abiraterone or enzalutamide), the experts reached a consensus on the use of enzalutamide as the preferred second-line treatment option. No consensus was reached for the third-line treatment options.ConclusionThis article is intended to serve as a guide to help clinicians discuss with their patients as part of the shared and multidisciplinary decision-making for improved APC management in India.
