The present report describes the history of a 58-year-old woman with a rapidly progressing neuroendocrine pancreatic tumor (initially G2) presenting with extensive liver, bone, and lymph node metastases. Previous treatments included chemotherapy, hemithyroidectomy for right lobe metastasis, Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) with [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE, Lanreotide, Everolimus, and liver embolization. Due to severe disease progression, after a liver biopsy revealing tumor grade G3, PRRT with the somatostatin receptor antagonist LM3 was initiated. [68Ga]GaDOTA-LM3 PET/CT showed intense tracer uptake in the liver, pancreatic tumor, lymph nodes, and bone metastases. Three TANDEM-PRRT cycles using [177Lu]LuDOTA-LM3 and [225Ac]AcDOTA-LM3, administered concurrently, resulted in significant improvement, notably in liver metastases, hepatomegaly reduction, the complete regression of bone and lymph node metastases, and primary tumor improvement. Partial remission was confirmed by positron emission tomography/computed tomography, chest–abdomen–pelvis contrast-enhanced computed tomography, and magnetic resonance of the abdomen, with marked clinical improvement in pain, energy levels, and quality of life, enabling full resumption of physical activity.

[ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article focuses on the use of Lu-PSMA radioligand therapy for treating isolated bilateral adrenal metastases from prostate cancer. Topics include the effectiveness of Lu-PSMA in metastatic prostate cancer, clinical trials supporting its use, and the rarity of adrenal gland metastases in prostate cancer.

Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a promising target for diagnosis and therapy of numerous malignant tumors. FAP-2286 is the conjugate of a FAP-binding peptide, which can be labeled with radionuclides for theranostic applications. We present the first-in-humans results using 177 Lu-FAP-2286 for peptide-targeted radionuclide therapy (PTRT). Methods: PTRT using 177 Lu-FAP-2286 was performed on 11 patients with advanced adenocarcinomas of the pancreas, breast, rectum, or ovary after prior confirmation of uptake on 68 Ga-FAP-2286 or 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT. Results: Administration of 177 Lu-FAP-2286 (5.8 ± 2.0 GBq; range, 2.4-9.9 GBq) was well tolerated, with no adverse symptoms or clinically detectable pharmacologic effects being noticed or reported in any of the patients. The whole-body effective dose was 0.07 ± 0.02 Gy/GBq (range, 0.04-0.1 Gy/GBq). The mean absorbed doses for kidneys and red marrow were 1.0 ± 0.6 Gy/GBq (range, 0.4-2.0 Gy/GBq) and 0.05 ± 0.02 Gy/GBq (range, 0.03-0.09 Gy/GBq), respectively. Significant uptake and long tumor retention of 177 Lu-FAP-2286 resulted in high absorbed tumor doses, such as 3.0 ± 2.7 Gy/GBq (range, 0.5-10.6 Gy/GBq) in bone metastases. No grade 4 adverse events were observed. Grade 3 events occurred in 3 patients-1 with pancytopenia, 1 with leukocytopenia, and 1 with pain flare-up; 3 patients reported a pain response. Conclusion: Lu-FAP-2286 PTRT, applied in a broad spectrum of cancers, was relatively well tolerated, with acceptable side effects, and demonstrated long retention of the radiopeptide. Prospective clinical studies are warranted.177 Lu-FAP-2286 PTRT, applied in a broad spectrum of cancers, was relatively well tolerated, with acceptable side effects, and demonstrated long retention of the radiopeptide.
