Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Overall 177Lu-PSMA-617 Cohort
All patients treated with 177Lu-PSMA-617.
Prior Treatment Use Cohort: ≥1 Androgen Receptor Pathway Inhibitor (ARPI) and ≥1 Taxane
Patients treated with 177Lu-PSMA-617 after at least 1 ARPI and at least 1 taxane treatment. ARPIs include abiraterone, enzalutamide, darolutamide, and apalutamide. Taxanes include cabazitaxel and docetaxel.
Prior Treatment Use Cohort: 1 ARPI and 1 Taxane
Patients treated with 177Lu-PSMA-617 after 1 ARPI and 1 taxane treatment. ARPIs include abiraterone, enzalutamide, darolutamide, and apalutamide. Taxanes include cabazitaxel and docetaxel.
Prior Treatment Use Cohort: Delayed
Patients with evidence of 1 ARPI and 1 taxane treatment plus at least 1 additional ARPI or taxane before 177Lu-PSMA-617 initiation. ARPIs include abiraterone, enzalutamide, darolutamide, and apalutamide. Taxanes include cabazitaxel and docetaxel.
Subsequent Treatment Use Cohort: Any Guideline-Recommended Treatment
Patients treated with any guideline-recommended treatment for mCRPC after 177Lu-PSMA-617 discontinuation. Guideline-recommended treatments include abiraterone, enzalutamide, darolutamide, apalutamide, cabazitaxel, docetaxel, pembrolizumab, sipuleucel-T, niraparib, olaparib, talazoparib, rucaparib, radium-223; carboplatin, cisplatin, etoposide, and mitoxantrone.
Subsequent Treatment Use Cohort: ARPI/Taxane
Patients treated with any ARPI or taxane after 177Lu-PSMA-617 discontinuation (i.e., abiraterone, enzalutamide, darolutamide, apalutamide, cabazitaxel, docetaxel).
Subsequent Treatment Use Cohort: ARPI
Patients treated with any ARPI after 177Lu-PSMA-617 discontinuation (i.e., abiraterone, enzalutamide, darolutamide, apalutamide).
Subsequent Treatment Use Cohort: Taxane
Patients treated with any taxane after 177Lu-PSMA-617 discontinuation (i.e., cabazitaxel, docetaxel).
