Prostate cancer is the commonest non-cutaneous cancer in males and frequently metastasizes to nodal and skeletal tissues. Metastases to soft tissue viscera such as lung and liver are associated with decreased overall survival compared to nodal and skeletal metastases despite androgen deprivation and chemotherapy with palliative intent.We present a case with complete resolution of lung metastases after 225Ac-PSMA targeted alpha endoradiotherapy in a treatment naïve patient with metastatic prostate cancer. Our case gives preliminary clinical support for the efficacy of 225Ac-PSMA therapy in lung metastases.
