Background: LuPSMA - 617 is a promising therapy for metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, treatment resistance occurs frequently and synergistic combination therapy may improve outcomes. We combined LuPSMA - 617 with idronoxil (NOX66), an inhibitor of external NADH oxidase type 2 with radio-sensitizing properties. We present the final safety and efficacy results. Method(s): Men with progressive mCRPC after androgen signalling inhibition (ASI) and taxane chemotherapy were enrolled. Key inclusion criteria were: PSMA PET/CT intensity SUV max > 15 with no discordant disease on FDG PET/CT, haemoglobin > 100g/L, platelets > 100x10 /L and eGFR > 40mls/min. Enrolled patients received up to six doses of Lu-PSMA 617 (7.5Gbq) day 1 every 6 weeks in combination with NOX66 days 1-10 each cycle. Cohort 1 (n = 8) received 400mg NOX66. Following safety reviews the doses were escalated in cohorts 2 (n = 24) and 3 (n = 24) to 800mg and 1200mg of NOX66, respectively. Blood samples were prospectively collected for androgen receptor splice variant 7 (ARV7) expression. PSMA and FDG PET/CT were performed at study entry and on progression. The primary outcomes were safety and tolerability; the secondary outcomes evaluated were efficacy, pain scores, and quality of life. Result(s): Of the 56 men enrolled, all had received prior treatment with ASI and docetaxel, and 95% (53/56) had prior cabazitaxel. 96% (54/56) patients received >=2 cycles and 46% (26/56) completed six cycles of treatment. Adverse events are summarized in the table below. PSA responses were as follows: 86% (48/56) had any PSA reduction and 61% (34/56) had > 50% PSA reduction. 84% (47/56) have had PSA progression to date with median follow up 18.9 months (95% CI 11.9-25.8). Median PSA PFS was 7.5 months (95% CI 6.0-9.0). 55% (31/56) have died and median overall survival was 19.7 months (95% CI 10.7-28.7). 34/56 men had baseline pain scores >=3, of whom 53% (18/34) had significant reduction in pain i
