Clinical trials are an important way to improve treatment for people with cancer. While most are continuing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the period of time that clinical trials are available and recruiting may change quickly. If you would like to get involved in a clinical trial, speak to your treatment team or the health service where the clinical trial is being undertaken, to confirm it is open and appropriate for you. For cancer information and support, call Cancer Council's experienced cancer nurses on 13 11 20 Monday to Friday from 9am-5pm.

Summary

To be eligible for this trial, patients must have metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) that has progressed with a novel AR targeted agent (abiraterone and/or enzalutamide and/or apalutamide) and has not previously been exposed to platinums, PARP inhibitors or 177Lu-PSMA. Patients can have had prior exposure to docetaxel in the chemotherapy naïve setting or castrate setting. Eligible patients will be enrolled in the trial in two stages: a dose escalation and expansion stage. Depending on the stage of enrolment, patients will receive either escalating or fixed 7.4 GBq of 177Lu-PSMA every 6 weeks together with olaparib on days 2-15 of each cycle. A cycle is 42 days long. Patients will receive up to 4 cycles of treatment.
