Pluvicto (lutetium-177 [Lu-177] prostate-specific membrane antigen [PSMA]-617) appears to perform as effectively in prostate cancer patients in “real-world” settings as it did in clinical trials prior to its approval, according to clinicians at the Johns Hopkins Theranostics Center in Baltimore, MD. A group led by Andrei Gafita, MD, also found that an AI algorithm called SelectPSMA may help determine how patients respond to Pluvicto treatment.

Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM)-guided biopsy by itself is not a good substitute for MRI-guided biopsy of suspicious breast MRI findings, according to a study published September 18 in the American Journal of Roentgenology. Researchers led by Michael Morris, MD, from Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center in Gilbert, AZ, reported that more than one-quarter of suspicious MRI findings deemed to be occult at attempted CEM-guided biopsy were diagnosed as malignant by subsequent MRI-guided biopsy.
