Awards & highlights

Summary

This trial tests a new drug to see if it's effective against prostate cancer when used with ketoconazole and hydrocortisone.

Who is the study for?

Men over 18 with advanced prostate cancer that's worsened after surgery or radiotherapy can join. They must have a rising PSA level, no signs of the cancer spreading significantly, and low testosterone. Participants should not be at high risk of other serious illnesses and agree to use contraception if they can father children.

What is being tested?

The trial is testing an experimental drug called 177Lu-J591 combined with ketoconazole and hydrocortisone on prostate cancer patients. It aims to see how effective this combination is in controlling the progression of the disease.

What are the potential side effects?

Possible side effects may include blood disorders like low platelet counts, issues with liver function tests, kidney problems indicated by creatinine levels, fatigue from anemia (low hemoglobin), infection risks due to neutrophil count changes, and potential heart complications.
