FDA accepts filing and gives priority review for 177 Lu PSMA 617 in prostate cancer.- Novartis
Novartis announced that the FDA has accepted a filing and granted Priority Review to the company’s New Drug Application (NDA) for 177Lu-PSMA-617, an investigational targeted radioligand therapy for the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in the post androgen receptor pathway inhibition, post taxane-based chemotherapy setting.
Priority Review is based on positive data from the pivotal, Phase III VISION study showing 177Lu-PSMA-617 plus standard of care (SOC), significantly improved overall survival and radiographic progression-free survival for men with progressive PSMA-positive mCRPC compared to SOC alone. Two additional studies with 177Lu-PSMA-617 in earlier lines of treatment for metastatic prostate cancer are ongoing, investigating clinical utility in the pre-taxane setting (PSMAfore) and in the metastatic hormone-sensitive setting (PSMAddition).
