Radionuclide Therapy With 177Lu-PSMA in a Patient With Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:A 69-year-old man diagnosed with progressive bone metastatic castration-resistant prostate adenocarcinoma and concurrent alcoholic cirrhosis with multiple hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) nodules was referred to our nuclear medicine service for 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy. The patient's pretreatment screening using 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT revealed high prostate-specific membrane antigen expression in both prostatic and HCC lesions. The patient underwent 2 doses of 177Lu-PSMA-617. Subsequent imaging assessments with 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and hepatic MRI indicated progressive HCC nodules, while showing a partial response in prostatic bone metastases. Positive clinical and biological responses were observed only in prostatic disease, but not in HCC nodules.
