Blue Earth Diagnostics Highlights Presentations on POSLUMA® (Flotufolastat F 18) in Prostate Cancer at Upcoming 2024 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium (ASCO GU)


Blue Earth Diagnostics, a Bracco company and recognized leader in the development and commercialization of innovative PET radiopharmaceuticals, today announced presentations on POSLUMA® (flotufolastat F 18) injection (formerly known as 18F-rhPSMA-7.3) at the upcoming ASCO GU 2024 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium (ASCO GU). The conference will be held in San Francisco, Calif., from January 25 to 27, 2024. POSLUMA is indicated for positron emission tomography (PET) of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positive lesions in men with prostate cancer with suspected metastasis who are candidates for initial definitive therapy or with suspected recurrence based on elevated serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level.

"Presentations at ASCO GU include additional results from the completed Phase 3 SPOTLIGHT study, which evaluated POSLUMA in recurrent prostate cancer and its ability to detect recurrent disease even at low prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels," said David E. Gauden, D.Phil., Chief Executive Officer of Blue Earth Diagnostics. "Results to be presented by Dr. Przemyslaw Twardowski, MD, will discuss the impact of POSLUMA on treatment plans for men with recurrent disease after curative-intent primary therapy. A presentation by Dr. Benjamin H. Lowentritt, MD, FACS, will speak about the impact of various Standard of Truth methods in evaluating diagnostic PET radiopharmaceuticals, using the SPOTLIGHT trial as a case study. Dr. Zachariah Taylor, DO, will present a Trials in Progress poster for an Investigator Initiated Study which is evaluating the performance of POSLUMA in detecting N1 and M1 disease for newly diagnosed prostate cancer and its impact on clinical management for patients with extraprostatic disease. PET imaging with POSLUMA reveals clinical information crucial to decision-making for men with prostate cancer, and we are excited to share this information with the oncology community at ASCO GU."

Details of the presentations are listed below.

Moderated poster presentation sessions will take place on Thursday, January 25, 2024 at 11:30 a.m. PT, on Level 1, West Hall of the George R. Moscone Convention Center, and also be available On Demand.
