AZD2265 Compared With Standard of Care in PSMA-positive Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer (VECTRA-01)

A Phase III, Multicentre, Randomised Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of AZD2265 (FPI-2265) ²²⁵Ac-PSMA-I&T Compared With Standard of Care in Patients With PSMA-positive Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer (VECTRA-01)

About This Trial

  • This clinical trial is testing whether a new targeted medication called AZD2265 works better than current standard treatments to slow cancer growth and help patients live longer.
  • It is designed for adults with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and continued to grow despite previous treatments, including hormone therapy, chemotherapy, and prior targeted radiation therapy.
  • To qualify, patients must have a specialized scan showing that their tumor cells carry a specific protein called PSMA.
  • Before considering this study, patients should know that they may be randomly assigned to receive either the experimental drug or standard therapy, and participants must agree to avoid fathering children and use condoms during the trial and for six months afterward.

More Information

  • The intention of the study is to demonstrate superiority of AZD2265 relative to standard of care treatments by assessment of radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS) in participants with mCRPC.

Who Can Enroll

  • Age Range: 18 years and older
  • Gender: Male
  • Who This Trial is For: This clinical trial is testing whether a new targeted medication called AZD2265 works better than current standard treatments to slow cancer growth and help patients live longer.

  • Previously treated with at least 2 cycles of PSMA-directed β-emitting radioconjugate.
  • Previously treated with at least 1 taxane-based chemotherapy regimen for either metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer or CRPC.
  • Previously treated with at least 1 ARPI (eg, enzalutamide, abiraterone, etc.).
