It also reduced SLC7A11 expression, suggesting a disruption of redox homeostasis in cancer cells. Taken together, this integrated strategy combining molecular targeting, real-time imaging, and localized mPTT, with optional gene regulation, offers a promising theranostic approach for precision management of PCa.
High PSMA expression in differentiated thyroid cancer was associated with shorter progression-free survival and may be considered a marker of aggressiveness. Such tumors could be candidates for targeted PSMA-radioligand therapy (e.g., 177 lutetium), particularly in radioiodine-negative/refractory cases, which are difficult to treat.
Nevertheless, such systems can be essential for optimizing prostate cancer management and facilitating communication among imaging professionals, clinicians, and patients. This article outlines these systems and discusses potential strengths and weaknesses.
Early clinical experience with [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-PSMA radioligands and ongoing trials such as RENALUT and PRadR are exploring the feasibility of radioligand therapy targeting PSMA-positive ccRCC neovasculature. Although biological and kinetic barriers persist, PSMA-based imaging and therapy represent a feasible, rapidly translatable platform that bridges diagnosis and targeted treatment, marking a pivotal step towards personalised, imaging-guided management of advanced ccRCC.

High tracer accumulation in 70% of the participants suggests a possible use for PSMA-directed radiopharmaceutical therapy in an end-stage setting. However, PSMA expression was not prognostic for outcome, possibly because of the small sample size.
