General information
Class/mechanism: Radioligand therapeutic agent. The radionucleotide lutetium-177 is linked to vipivotide tetraxetan, which binds to PSMA (prostate-specific membrane antigen), a transmembrane protein that is expressed in prostate cancer. Binding of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan to PSMA-positive cells results in delivery of beta-minus radiation, resulting in DNA damage and cell death. Lutetium 177's half-life is 6.647 days.[1][2][3]
Route: IV
Extravasation: no information
For conciseness and simplicity, HemOnc.org currently will focus on treatment regimens and not list information such as: renal/hepatic dose adjustments, metabolism (including CYP450), excretion, monitoring parameters (although this will be considered for checklists), or manufacturer. Instead, for the most current information, please refer to your preferred pharmacopeias such as Micromedex, Lexicomp, UpToDate (courtesy of Lexicomp), or the prescribing information.[1]
