81 Background: In the PSMAfore clinical trial, 177 Lu-PSMA-617 achieved a PSA50 (defined as a ≥50% reduction in prostate-specific antigen [PSA] from baseline) response rate in 58%, a median radiographic progression-free survival (PFS) of 12 months, and a median overall survival (OS) of 25 months among taxane-naïve patients with mCRPC who had received one prior androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the real-world effectiveness of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 in taxane-naïve patients with mCRPC who had received one or more prior ARPIs. Methods: This retrospective, observational study included taxane-naïve adults with mCRPC initiating 177 Lu-PSMA-617 between March 23, 2022, and June 27, 2025, after ≥1 prior ARPI. All data for the study were extracted from the PRECISION data platform, a harmonized dataset of patients with advanced prostate cancer in the US treated in a variety of clinical settings. The index date was the date of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 initiation. Patient characteristics and PSA response rates were evaluated descriptively. PFS, defined as the time from 177 Lu-PSMA-617 initiation to progression or death, was estimated using Kaplan–Meier methodology. Results: A total of 500 patients were included. The median age was 75 years, 75% of patients were White and 8% Black, and 18% were treated in urology centers while 82% were treated in oncology centers. The most common site of metastasis was bone (77%), followed by lymph node (21%), visceral (12%), and unknown (5%). Overall, 51% had received 1 previous ARPI while 49% had received ≥2. The median baseline PSA was 26.7 ng/mL (interquartile range [IQR] 10−105 ng/mL) and the median time from mCRPC diagnosis to 177 Lu-PSMA-617 initiation was 23.6 months. The median number of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 cycles received was 4 (IQR 2−6). Among 219 patients with available PSA measurements both before and during 177 Lu-PSMA-617 treatment (representing 44% of the cohort), PSA response rates were as follows: PSA50 in 137 (63%), PSA80 in 86 (39%), and PSA90 in 56 (26%) patients. Overall, the median PFS was 13.5 months (95% confidence interval 11.7–14.7 months). Conclusions: The effectiveness of 177 Lu-PSMA-617 as a standard-of-care treatment in real-world, taxane-naïve patients with mCRPC who had received prior treatment with ≥1 ARPI is consistent with results from the PSMAfore trial, confirming the applicability of those findings to the real-world population now eligible for 177 Lu-PSMA-617. Further research on sequencing 177 Lu-PSMA-617 after one or more prior ARPIs in taxane-naïve patients with mCRPC is needed to guide optimal treatment sequencing in clinical practice.

79 Background: In March 2025, the indication for 177 Lu-PSMA-617 was expanded to include prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive patients with mCRPC treated with ≥1 androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) and considered appropriate to delay taxane-based chemotherapy. With 177 Lu-PSMA-617 moving earlier in the treatment journey, it is important to understand the clinical activity of other systemic therapies after 177 Lu-PSMA-617. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes among patients with mCRPC receiving a systemic therapy after 177 Lu-PSMA-617 treatment. Methods: This retrospective, observational study used real-world data from the PRECISION data platform, a proprietary dataset developed by Novartis representative of patients with advanced prostate cancer in the US from diverse clinical settings. Patients with mCRPC treated with 177 Lu-PSMA-617 who received a systemic therapy ≥14 days after treatment with 177 Lu-PSMA-617 between March 23, 2022, and June 27, 2025, were included. Systemic therapies included ARPIs (abiraterone, enzalutamide, darolutamide, apalutamide); chemotherapy (cabazitaxel, docetaxel, carboplatin, cisplatin, etoposide, mitoxantrone); immunotherapy (pembrolizumab, sipuleucel-T); poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (niraparib, olaparib, talazoparib, rucaparib); and radium-223. Patient characteristics and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response were evaluated descriptively. Progression-free survival (PFS) from subsequent therapy initiation was estimated using Kaplan–Meier methodology. Results: A total of 442 patients receiving any subsequent systemic therapy after 177 Lu-PSMA-617 were included. Overall, 95% of patients received ≥1 ARPI and 76% ≥1 taxane pre- 177 Lu-PSMA-617. The median age was 73 years. Most patients received a taxane (n = 188), an ARPI (n = 176), or a PARP inhibitor (n = 33) as their subsequent therapy. The median time to subsequent therapy initiation was 70 days (interquartile range 38−137 days) from the last 177 Lu-PSMA-617 administration. Among 299 patients receiving a systemic therapy after 177 Lu-PSMA-617 with PSA values available both pre-index and during subsequent treatment, 48% achieved a ≥50% reduction in PSA from baseline (PSA50), 31% a PSA80, and 18% a PSA90. The median PFS from the initiation of subsequent therapy was 8.6 months in the entire cohort; this was 10.7 months with a subsequent ARPI, 7.2 months with a subsequent taxane, and 7.1 months with a subsequent PARP inhibitor. Conclusions: In this real-world analysis, meaningful clinical responses were observed in a subset of patients who received subsequent systemic therapies after 177 Lu-PSMA-617.

59 Background: There are several real-world data sources for prostate cancer (PC), each with its own limitations; the most notable limitation is an incomplete picture of the multidisciplinary clinical management of PC. The PRECISION data platform, the largest, most comprehensive, and continually updated real-world evidence source on patients with advanced PC to date, tries to address this limitation and shed light on PC management in both urology and oncology practices in both academic and community settings in the US. The platform includes a wide variety of PC-specific data variables among patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive PC (mHSPC) and metastatic castration-resistant PC (mCRPC) treated across the US. This study aims to provide an overview of the characteristics, treatment patterns, and clinical outcomes among patients with mHSPC and mCRPC included in PRECISION to date. Methods: A retrospective cohort study that included patients with a diagnosis of mHSPC or mCRPC (index date) in PRECISION between 2018 and 2024 (cohorts could overlap). For each cohort, patient characteristics and treatment patterns were evaluated descriptively. Results: The PRECISION platform currently includes 72,855 and 33,538 patients with mHSPC and mCRPC, respectively. Among the mHSPC cohort, the mean ± standard deviation (SD) age was 74.5±9.4 years; 67% and 33% were treated at oncology and urology centers, respectively; 40% and 60% were from academic and community settings, respectively. The average ± SD time from mHSPC to mCRPC was 11.2±11.7 months. Overall, 77.6% of patients were treated with androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT), of whom 64.7% had ADT combined with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) including abiraterone acetate, enzalutamide, and apalutamide. Among the mCRPC cohort, the mean ± SD age was 74.1±9.3 years; similar treatment setting patterns as mHSPC were observed. Overall, 74.6% initiated a first-line (1L) therapy on/after mCRPC diagnosis; 52.1% had 1L ARPIs, 16.2% 1L immunotherapy, and 4.6% 1L taxane chemotherapy. In addition, 2.2% of patients received the recently US FDA-approved therapy, lutetium-177 vipivotide tetraxetan, at some point during their mCRPC disease duration. Conclusions: This analysis provides key insights into the patients included in the PRECISION data platform. This multidisciplinary dataset provides a 70/30 split between oncology and urology centers, and a 40/60 split between academic and community settings. The observed clinical profile, treatment patterns, and outcomes comprise the most comprehensive representation of current treatment practice in the US. Future analyses of clinical outcomes with existing and novel therapies could contribute significantly to our understanding of opportunities to improve the treatment of patients with mHSPC and mCRPC in the US.
