EQ-5D-5L is a standardized participant completed questionnaire that measures health-related quality of life and translates that score into an index value or utility score. EQ-5D-5L consists of two components: a health state profile and an optional visual analogue scale (VAS). EQ-5D health state profile is comprised of 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1= no problems, 2= slight problems, 3= moderate problems, 4= severe problems, and 5= extreme problems. Higher scores indicated greater levels of problems across each of the five dimensions.

Pain severity score is a mean value for BPI-SF questions 3, 4, 5 and 6 (questions inquiring about the extent of pain, where the extent is ranked from 0 [no pain] to 10 [pain as bad as you can imagine]). Pain severity progression is defined as an increase in score of 30% or greater from baseline without decrease in analgesic use.
Part 2 and Part 3 (main part): Change from Baseline in Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form (BPISF) Questionnaire: Pain Interference Score
The BPI-SF is a publicly available instrument to assess the pain and includes severity and interference scores. BPI-SF is an 11-item self report questionnaire that is designed to assess the severity and impact of pain on daily functions of a participant.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetic (PK) and dosimetry of 177Lu-PSMA-617, in participants with progressive prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in Japan. Furthermore, the safety, PK and dosimetry of 68Ga-PSMA-11 (PSMA imaging agent) are assessed in the same study.
Detailed Description
This study is an open label, multicenter, single arm, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability, safety, PK and dosimetry of 177Lu-PSMA-617 in participants with progressive PSMA-positive mCRPC in Japan. Furthermore, the safety, PK, and dosimetry of 68Ga-PSMA-11 (PSMA imaging agent) are also evaluated in this study. This study consists of two populations: Post-taxane population: The post-taxane population will include men with PSMA-positive mCRPC who received at least one ARDT (for example enzalutamide, abiraterone etc.) and were previously treated with at least one, but no more than two taxane regimens. Participants treated with only 1 prior taxane regimen are eligible if the participant's physician deems the participants unsuitable to receive a second taxane regimen. Pre-taxane population; The pre-taxane population will include men with PSMA-positive mCRPC who were previously treated with one ARDT as last treatment and have not been exposed to a taxane-containing regimen in the CRPC or HSPC settings and for whom it is considered appropriate to delay taxane-based chemotherapy. This is a 3-part study: Part 1 (a safety run-in part), Part 2 (post-taxane part) and Part 3 (pre-taxane part). Part 1 (safety run-in part) will confirm the tolerability and safety of recommended regimen, once every 6-weeks, 7.4 GBq of the 177Lu-PSMA-617. Minimum of 3 participants as 177Lu-PSMA-617 tolerability evaluable participants will be enrolled. Dosimetry and PK assessments of 177Lu-PSMA-617 are mandatory for participants enrolled in this part. Part 2 (post-taxane part) will evaluate the efficacy, safety, PK and dosimetry of 177Lu-PSMA-617 plus BSC/BSoC, as well as safety, PK, and dosimetry of 68Ga-PSMA-11 in post-taxane participants with PSMA-positive mCRPC. Part 3 (pre-taxane part) will evaluate the efficacy, safety, PK and dosimetry of 177Lu-PSMA-617, as well as safety, PK, and dosimetry of 68Ga-PSMA-11 in taxane naïve participants with PSMA-positive mCRPC Approximately total 35 participants are planned for screening, and total 28 participants will be enrolled in the treatment part (Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3). This study will consist of 3 periods: screening period, treatment period, and long term follow up.

Part 2 and Part 3 (main part): Change from Baseline in European Quality of Life (EuroQol) - 5 Domain 5 Level scale (EQ-5D- 5L)
Description
EQ-5D-5L is a standardized participant completed questionnaire that measures health-related quality of life and translates that score into an index value or utility score. EQ-5D-5L consists of two components: a health state profile and an optional visual analogue scale (VAS). EQ-5D health state profile is comprised of 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1= no problems, 2= slight problems, 3= moderate problems, 4= severe problems, and 5= extreme problems. Higher scores indicated greater levels of problems across each of the five dimensions.
Time Frame
From Baseline up till end of treatment visit, an average of 13 months
Title
Part 2 and Part 3 (main part): Change from Baseline in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Prostate (FACT-P) Questionnaire
Description
FACT-P assesses symptoms/problems related to prostate carcinoma and its treatment. It is a combination of the FACT- General + the Prostate Cancer Subscale (PCS). The FACTGeneral (FACT-G) is a 27 item Quality of Life (QoL) measure that provides a total score as well as subscale scores: Physical (0-28), Functional (0-28), Social (0-28), and Emotional Well-being (0-24). The total score range is between 1-108, higher scores indicates better for total score and subscale scores. PCS is a 12-item prostate cancer subscale that asks about symptoms and problems specific to prostate cancer (Range 0-48, higher scores better). The FACT-P total score is the sum of all 5 subscale scores of the FACT-P questionnaire and ranges from 0-156. Higher scores indicate higher degree of functioning and better quality of life.
Time Frame
From Baseline up till end of treatment visit, an average of 13 months
Title
Part 2 and Part 3 (main part): Change from Baseline in Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form (BPISF) Questionnaire: Pain Severity Score
Description

Progression of bone disease: two new lesions; only positivity on the bone scan defines metastatic disease to bone (PCWG3 criteria, Scher et al 2016). Participants must have at least one measurable lesion per PCWG3-modified RECIST v1.1 on CT or MRI. Key Exclusion Criteria: Previous treatment with any of the following within 6 months of the enrollment: Strontium-89, Samarium-153, Rhenium-186, Rhenium-188, Radium-223, hemi-body irradiation. Previous PSMA-targeted therapy is not allowed. Post-taxane population: Any systemic anti-cancer therapy (e.g. chemotherapy, immunotherapy or biological therapy [including monoclonal antibodies], ARDT is not included) within 28 days prior to day of the enrollment. Pre-taxane population: Prior treatment with PARP inhibitor, cytotoxic chemotherapy for castration resistant or castrate sensitive prostate cancer (e.g., taxanes, platinum, estramustine, vincristine, methotrexate, etc.), immunotherapy or biological therapy [including monoclonal antibodies]) [Note: Taxane exposure (maximum 6 cycles) in the adjuvant or neoadjuvant setting is allowed if 12 months have elapsed since completion of this adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy] Known hypersensitivity to the components of 177Lu-PSMA-617, 68Ga-PSMA-11 or excipients or to drugs of similar classes. Concurrent cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radioligand therapy, PARP inhibitors, biological, AKT inhibitors or investigational therapy. Participants with a history of CNS metastases must have received therapy (surgery, radiotherapy, gamma knife) and be neurologically stable, asymptomatic, and not receiving corticosteroids for the purposes of maintaining neurologic integrity. Symptomatic cord compression, or clinical or radiologic findings indicative of impending cord compression.
