Summary

This trial aims to determine the most effective treatment for patients with advanced prostate cancer who have not responded to hormone therapy and docetaxel, and who are also positive for Prostate-specific membrane antigen (

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and isn't responding to hormone therapy or docetaxel. Participants must have tumors that are PSMA positive, indicating a specific protein is present on their cancer cells.
What is being tested?
The study compares two treatments: one group receives Cabazitaxel with Carboplatin, while the other gets an experimental treatment called Lu-PSMA-617. The goal is to determine which treatment works best for this type of cancer.
What are the potential side effects?
Cabazitaxel and Carboplatin can cause nausea, hair loss, nerve damage, low blood cell counts increasing infection risk. Lu-PSMA-617 may lead to dry mouth, kidney issues, and temporary bone marrow suppression.
