Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The primary goal of the study is to determine the safety profile of AB001 and how well patients tolerate the treatment. Researchers also aim to identify the best dose and schedule for further testing and clinical development.
AB001 could be a promising treatment because it uses alpha particles, which are highly effective at damaging cancer cells while causing minimal harm to surrounding healthy tissue. This targeted approach is expected to result in fewer side effects compared to other types of radiation therapy.
This Phase 1 study consists of two main parts: dose escalation and dose expansion. In the first part, researchers will test different doses of AB001 to find the safest and most effective dose. In the second part, the selected dose will be further evaluated to refine the treatment schedule and gather more data on its effectiveness and safety.
The study aims to provide early data on the anti-tumour activity of AB001 and determine the best dose and treatment schedule for future trials. Researchers hope that AB001 will offer a new and effective treatment option for patients with advanced prostate cancer.

NON_RANDOMIZED
PARALLEL
The study includes the following main parts:
Dose Escalation: To assess the safety and tolerability of AB001 and determine the recommended dose level and treatment schedule in both 177Lu-PSMA naïve and 177Lu-PSMA experienced groups to take into the Expansion part.
Dose Expansion: To further characterise the antitumour activity and safety profile of the recommended dose and schedule in both 177Lu-PSMA naïve and 177Lu-PSMA experienced groups for further development of AB001 in specific patient populations.
Dose Escalation will seamlessly progress into Dose Expansion.
The study will include several sub-studies to enable characterisation of the biodistribution, body clearance, and PK of AB001 in participants with mCRPC.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
AB001 treated ¹⁷⁷Lu-PSMA naïve mCRPC patients
Dose Escalation will be initiated in ¹⁷⁷Lu-PSMA naïve mCRPC patients with the first cohort of participants receiving a starting dose of 100 MBq Pb212 (AB001) administered by slow injection on Day 1 of a 6-week (42-day) cycle. Four cycles of study treatment are planned; however, individual participants may continue up to a maximum of six treatment cycles provided they meet defined criteria. Subsequent cohorts of 177Lu-PSMA naïve participants will be opened for dose finding and schedule optimisation.
AB001
Pb-212 PSMA targeted alpha radioligand therapy
AB001 treated 177Lu-PSMA experienced mCRPC patients
For the 177Lu-PSMA experienced Group, the first cohort will initiate enrolment with a starting dose of 100 MBq Pb212 (AB001) administered by slow injection on Day 1 of a 6-week (42-day) cycle after a minimum of two participants in the 177Lu-PSMA naïve Group are DLT evaluable, with no observed DLTs. Four cycles of study treatment are planned; however, individual participants may continue up to a maximum of six treatment cycles provided they meet defined criteria. Subsequent cohorts of 177Lu-PSMA experienced participants will be opened for dose finding and schedule optimisation.
