About mCRPC & PSMA

Unmet Need

PATIENTS WITH mCRPC URGENTLY NEED DIFFERENT OPTIONS¹

Patients with mCRPC report overall survival as their number one goal

1L, first line; 2L, second line; 3L, third line; ARPI, androgen receptor pathway inhibitor; mCRPC, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

*With ARPI, chemotherapy, bone-targeted radiation, or immunotherapy.²

Scanning to Determine PSMA Status

MORE THAN 80% OF PATIENTS WITH PROSTATE CANCER ARE PSMA+, MAKING PSMA AN IDEAL DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC TARGET^5,6

PSMA-PET imaging demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity to see PSMA+ metastases^7-10
Once a PSMA-PET scan confirms PSMA+ mCRPC, patients can be treated with a PSMA-targeted radioligand therapy like PLUVICTO¹¹

REGARDLESS OF METASTATIC SITE—BONE, NODAL, OR VISCERAL—PLUVICTO TARGETS PSMA+ CELLS¹²

PSMA PET scans of bone, nodal, and visceral metastases

Help your patients strive for victory by ordering a PSMA-PET scan after only 1 ARPI and 1 taxane

Scan for PSMA. Treat PSMA+ mCRPC with PLUVICTO after 1 ARPI and 1 taxane.¹²

Which of your patients with PSMA+ mCRPC might be able to benefit from PLUVICTO next?

PET, positron emission tomography; PSMA, prostate-specific membrane antigen; PSMA+, PSMA positive.
