MELBOURNE, Australia and KYOTO, Japan, May 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Telix Pharmaceuticals Limited (ASX: TLX, Telix, the Company) today announces that the first patient has been dosed in a clinical study in Japan using Telix’s investigational prostate cancer imaging product TLX591-CDx (Illuccix®, Kit for the preparation of 68Ga-PSMA-11 injection). The study is an academic collaboration between Telix and Kanazawa University. The study will enroll ten patients with advanced prostate cancer and is the first clinical evaluation of gallium-based PSMA imaging in Japan. The objective is to obtain safety data in a representative Japanese patient population, and to demonstrate that the targeting and biodistribution of TLX591-CDx in Japanese patients is consistent with international experience. Clinical data may facilitate development planning discussions with the PMDA and other Asian regulators. Anri Inaki MD PhD, Principal Investigator of the study, said, “The development of PSMA prostate imaging in Japan has been eagerly awaited by prostate cancer patients and the urology and nuclear medicine community. We are delighted to announce this cornerstone event as a collaborative achievement between Professor Mizokami of Urology, Professor Murayama of the Innovative Clinical Research Center (iCREK), and Professor Kinuya of Nuclear Medicine at Kanazawa University Hospital, along with Kanazawa Advanced Medical Center (KadMedic), ATOX Co.
