Abstract Purpose: Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is an attractive target for radiopharmaceutical therapy. Phase I of the LuMIERE study (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04939610) investigated the safety of [177Lu]Lu-FAP-2286 (177Lu-FAP-2286) in heavily pretreated patients with advanced solid tumors and identified the recommended phase II dosage (RP2D). Patients and Methods: LuMIERE is a prospective, open-label, nonrandomized, phase I/II, multicenter study. Phase I followed a Bayesian optimal interval design evaluating four escalating activity levels of 177Lu-FAP-2286 (3.70, 5.55, 7.40, and 9.25 GBq). Patients were selected by positive [68Ga]Ga-FAP-2286 (68Ga-FAP-2286, also known as [68Ga]Ga-HKG301) PET/CT imaging on all target lesions [maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) ≥1.5× SUVmean of mediastinal blood pool]. 177Lu-FAP-2286 was administered intravenously every 6 weeks for ≤6 cycles. The primary endpoint was dosage-limiting toxicities (DLT) and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE). Results: Of 35 patients imaged with 68Ga-FAP-2286, 27 received 177Lu-FAP-2286 (3.70 GBq, n = 3; 5.55 GBq, n = 6; 7.40 GBq, n = 7; 9.25 GBq, n = 11). Two DLTs were observed: one patient who received 5.55 GBq of 177Lu-FAP-2286 experienced grade 4 lymphopenia, and one patient who received 9.25 GBq experienced grade 3 hemoptysis; these were the only treatment-related grade ≥3 TEAEs. All-cause grade ≥3 TEAEs were reported for 11 patients (40.7%). The RP2D for 177Lu-FAP-2286 monotherapy was determined to be 9.25 GBq. Preliminary Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors efficacy findings demonstrated a partial response in 1 patient and stable disease in 10 patients (maintained for at least two assessments in 6 patients). Conclusions: 177Lu-FAP-2286 was well tolerated in patients with advanced solid tumors. The safety and preliminary efficacy findings support its continued development in phase II.

PURPOSE The continuous development of new imaging approaches, molecular phenotyping, genetic subtypes, prognosis assessments, and effective therapies across a range of disease states has created a need to redefine terminology and best practices for clinical trial conduct in patients with advanced prostate cancer. Methods We convened an international expert committee of diverse working groups, the Prostate Cancer Working Group 4 (PCWG4), between 2016 and 2025. Our objective was to formulate updated criteria based on emerging evidence and clinical trial data in a biomarker context to provide guidance for clinical trial design, eligibility, and end point assessments for patients with advanced prostate cancer. RESULTS PCWG4 redefines terminology around the disease state and previous therapies in a patient-centric context and terminology focused on androgen pathway modulation. We consider imaging, with a particular focus on positron emission tomography (PET)–defined disease. New recommendations are provided for disease state terminology, defining eligibility criteria, response and delay/prevent end points, intervals for reassessments including imaging, and patient-reported outcome determination. We provide recommendations in a biomarker-based context of use for the intended indication, reflective of patient benefit for specific interventions. We emphasize the need for development of validated PET imaging and molecular and phenotypic criteria as well as trial designs to appropriately risk stratify patients, predict and assess benefit, and measure post-treatment outcomes reliably in a trial framework. CONCLUSION PCWG4 updates recommendations on patient and tumor characterization, therapy development, and imaging criteria and extends guidance into earlier androgen pathway modulator–naïve/sensitive disease states to reflect an evolving, heterogeneous, and diverse patient population to optimize treatment benefits for all patients.

METHODS An Expert Panel including patient representation completed a systematic review of the evidence and made recommendations. RESULTS Depending upon prior treatment received, androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs: enzalutamide, abiraterone with prednisone), poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi), chemotherapeutic agents (docetaxel, cabazitaxel), radiopharmaceuticals (radium 223, 177 Lu-prostate-specific membrane antigen [PSMA]-617), and sipuleucel-T have demonstrated an overall survival (OS) benefit for patients with mCRPC. For patients with BRCA1 / 2 alterations who did not receive prior ARPI, the combination of PARPi and ARPI (talazoparib + enzalutamide, olaparib and/or niraparib + abiraterone) has shown clinical benefit. For patients with BRCA1 / 2 alterations who received prior ARPI or ARPI followed by docetaxel, olaparib showed OS benefit. In select patients with microsatellite instability-high/mismatch repair-deficient, pembrolizumab showed clinical efficacy. RECOMMENDATIONS Prior systemic therapy for castration-sensitive prostate cancer will determine subsequent therapy used for mCRPC. Continue androgen-deprivation therapy for patients with mCRPC indefinitely. Early adoption of somatic genetic testing and palliative care is recommended. Patients with mCRPC and bony metastases should receive a bone-protective agent. The panel recommends the combination of ARPI with PARPi in patients with BRCA1 / 2 alterations who did not receive prior ARPI. For patients who received prior ARPI, the panel recommends docetaxel chemotherapy. The panel recommends 177 Lu-PSMA-617 or cabazitaxel chemotherapy for patients who receive prior ARPI and docetaxel chemotherapy. For patients with BRCA1 / 2 alterations who received prior ARPI, the panel recommends PARPi monotherapy. Radium 223 is recommended for patients with symptomatic bone–only disease. Evidence for optimal sequencing for mCRPC regimens is lacking. Additional information is available at www.asco.org/genitourinary-cancer-guidelines .
