Highlights
Cohort 3 of the theranostic SECuRE trial investigating 64Cu/67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) has been completed in 6 participants who received therapy with 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA at the highest single dose level of 12GBq.
No dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) have been reported in cohort 3 to date.
An overall safety review of all cohorts 1, 2 and 3 (4, 8 and 12GBq single dose, respectively) showed a favorable safety profile, with most adverse events (AEs) being mild or moderate.
The Safety Review Committee (SRC) has recommended that the trial progresses to cohort 4, a multi-dose phase, at the highest dose investigated in the study (12GBq).
Although the last participants in cohort 3 only completed dosing in January 2024, 60% of participants across all cohorts so far showed reductions in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels of greater than 35% from a single dose of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA. Twenty-seven percent of participants showed reductions in PSA levels of greater than 80%.
Among the participants from cohorts 2 and 3, almost 80% showed reductions in PSA levels of greater than 35% from a single dose of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA, and 44% showed reductions in PSA levels of greater than 80%.
Participants treated in the trial to date have received multiple lines of therapy prior to their recruitment into the study, including androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), androgen receptor pathway inhibition (ARPI) therapy, investigational agents, chemotherapy and other radioligand therapies such as alpha and beta-emitters (225Ac and 177Lu-based therapies, respectively).
Cohort 3 participants had the highest number of pre-treatments prior to entering the study across all cohorts, with most patients in this cohort receiving 5 or more lines of therapy. The number of lines of prior therapy in cohort 3 was almost double compared to cohort 2. Cohort 3 also had the highest pre-treatment median PSA across all cohorts (140.3 ng/ml, with a patient having the highest level in the cohort at 781.8 ng/ml).
Recruitment has opened for cohort 4, the first multi-dose cohort in the SECuRE trial, at clinical sites in the US. Participants in cohort 4 will receive multiple treatment cycles at the dose level of 12GBq of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA. All available patient slots for the first part of cohort 4 have been allocated and screening activities have commenced.
SYDNEY, March 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Clarity Pharmaceuticals (ASX: CU6) ("Clarity"), a clinical stage radiopharmaceutical company with a mission to develop next-generation products that improve treatment outcomes for children and adults with cancer, is pleased to announce the successful completion of cohort 3 and advancement to cohort 4, the first multi-dose cohort in the SECuRE trial.

Fig 1. Participant from cohort 3 showing reduction in uptake of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in prostate cancer lesions. The participant was treated with ADT, ARPI, chemotherapy and 2 investigational agents prior to enrolling in the SECuRE study (PSA 270.9 ng/ml at study entry). The participant received a single dose of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA (12GBq), which led to the reduction in uptake of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in the lesions. PSA reduction: 92.3%.
