A Phase 1/2 interventional study of Tb-PSMA-I&T (Tb-PSMA) in High Risk Prostate Cancer, sponsored by Rabin Medical Center. Recruiting at 1 site in Israel. Open to male participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-10-06.
Sponsored by Rabin Medical Center · Phase 1/2, Interventional, and Treatment
This is a multi-disciplinary collaboration between urologists, oncologists and nuclear medicine physicians from Beilinson hospital at Rabin Medical Center to address the major therapeutic challenge of locally advanced prostate cancer. Our aim is to evaluate the use of a novel treatment (Tb-PSMA) prior to the surgical removal of the prostate. This treatment has already shown initial promising results in patients with metastatic prostate cancer but has never been tested for locally advanced disease before surgery.
7,046 studies on the registry are indexed under Prostatic Neoplasms; 1,580 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 20 is below the median of 60 across 5,348 interventional studies indexed under Prostatic Neoplasms.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.
Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.
A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.
Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.
The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).
GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is how much blood the kidneys filter each minute. It is usually estimated from a blood test — eGFR, by formulas such as CKD-EPI or MDRD — and some studies ask for it to be measured directly instead. Usually given in mL/min/1.73 m².
Check the method, the units and the minimum the study states. A value of 90 or above is in the normal-or-high range, but kidney damage can show in other tests too.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
Biopsy and archival tissue
A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.
Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

Patients with high-risk locally advanced prostate cancer will receive 3 Tb-161-PSMA treatments followed by radical prostatectomy.
Drug: Tb-PSMA-I&T (Tb-PSMA)
Terbium-161 produce beta emission with the addition of Auger electrons which have higher linear energy transfer and a very short range. By that it has the potential to improve local and distal (micro-metastatic disease) efficacy with a similar safety profile. It will be given to patients with high risk locally advanced prostate cancer prior to Radical prostatectomy
Also known as: radical prostatectomy
Number of Tb-PSMA adverse effects measured by CTCAE v4.0 and number of surgical complications - measured by the Clavien-Dindo Classification (2009)
Time frame: 1 year
Surgical and clinical safety
The primary outcome is the safety of administering Tb-PSMA before radical prostatectomy, its impact on intra- and post-operative clinical course according to the Clavien-Dindo Classification.
Time frame: 1 year
Immediate oncological outcomes as measured by number of patients with positive surgical margins and number of patients who achieved biochemical complete response
Secondary outcomes include the immediate response to treatment in terms of biochemical response. A post-surgical prostate specific antigen above 0.1 ng/ml is considered biochemical failure.
Time frame: 3 months
