PYLARIFY has robust clinical data to show the full picture1
In patients with BCR, nearly 2 out of 3 patients who underwent PSMA PET imaging with PYLARIFY® after negative or uninformative standard imaging had a change in intended disease management based on findings on the PYLARIFY scan.1 Change in management may prevent undertreatment or overtreatment.†
†Future studies would be necessary to demonstrate whether PYLARIFY PET/CT-directed changes in management lead to improved outcomes for patients with prostate cancer.1
*The Phase 3 pivotal trial for PYLARIFY (CONDOR) evaluated change in intended management as a secondary endpoint and demonstrated nearly 2/3 of patients had a change in intended management recommendation following PYLARIFY PSMA PET.1
James Gray, MD, shares how PYLARIFY has helped change his approach to patient management.
PYLARIFY can help inform and guide intended treatment
PYLARIFY helped change the course of intended treatment for the majority of patients with BCR1*
(131/205) of patients with noninformative standard imaging† had a change in intended management plan1*
(103/131) of the changes were based on positive PSMA-targeted scan with PYLARIFY findings1
(28/131) of the changes were based on negative PSMA-targeted scan with PYLARIFY findings1
Michael David Lutz, MD, highlights the importance of PSMA PET imaging for treatment management.
Following PYLARIFY imaging results, the most frequent changes to treatment management plans were (N=205)1:
Salvage local therapy
Systemic therapy
(n=58; 28.3%)
Systemic therapy
Salvage local therapy
(n=43; 21.0%)
Observation
Initiating therapy
(n=49; 23.9%)
Planned treatment
Observation
(n=9; 4.4%)
In patients with baseline PSA <0.5 ng/mL, 39% had a unidirectional change in planned management.³
*Change in treatment plan was a secondary endpoint in CONDOR. Future studies will be necessary to demonstrate whether PSMA-targeted PET scan with PYLARIFY-directed changes in management lead to improved outcomes for patients with prostate cancer.1
Ben Lowentritt, MD, FACS, recounts scenarios where PSMA PET imaging changed the course of patient care.
†Standard imaging included CT/MRI/bone scan and 18F fluciclovine.1
