LX Pantos Accelerates Its RX and AX Drive With Launch of TDL Lab
SYDNEY, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Clarity Pharmaceuticals (ASX: CU6) ("Clarity" or "Company"), a clinical-stage radiopharmaceutical company with a mission to develop next-generation products that improve treatment outcomes for patients with cancer, is pleased to announce that the registrational Phase III CLARIFY trial (NCT06056830)[1] has dosed the planned target of 383 participants in the study.
CLARIFY (Positron Emission Tomography Using 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in Participants With High-risk Prostate Cancer Prior to Radical Prostatectomy: A Prospective, Single-arm, Multi-center, Blinded-review, Phase 3 Diagnostic Performance Study) is the first Phase III registrational trial for Clarity, being conducted in the United States (US) and Australia. It is a non-randomised, open-label study of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in participants with untreated, histopathology-confirmed prostate cancer with high-risk features who are proceeding to radical prostatectomy (removal of the prostate) with pelvic lymph node dissection (removal of lymph nodes from the pelvic region).
The primary endpoints of the study are the sensitivity and specificity of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA to detect prostate cancer within the pelvic lymph nodes compared to the standard of truth (histopathology), assessed independently for Day 1 (1-4 hours post-administration, same-day imaging) and Day 2 (approximately 24 hours post-administration, next-day imaging). CLARIFY builds on the findings from the Phase I PROPELLER study (first-in-human multi-centre trial involving 30 participants). The study demonstrated improved diagnostic performance of same-day 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA positron emission tomography (PET) compared to 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET in the pre-prostatectomy setting, including approximately 30% greater lesion detection, 2-3 times higher tracer uptake and contrast as well as higher proportion of participants with more lesions identified by 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA vs. 68Ga-PSMA-11 (73% vs. 27%, respectively; average across readers for participants with discordant lesion findings; Figures 1 and 2)[2]. The improved diagnostic performance of next-day vs. same-day 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA PET observed in the COBRA and Co-PSMA trials in biochemical recurrence (BCR) supports the hypothesis that next-day imaging may also offer incremental benefits in the pre-prostatectomy setting, to be assessed in the CLARIFY study.
Topline data from the CLARIFY trial are anticipated to be released in the first half of calendar year 2027, along with topline results from the AMPLIFY trial, which is investigating 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in patients with BCR of prostate cancer[3]. As a pivotal trial, the final CLARIFY study results are intended to provide sufficient evidence to support an application to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for approval of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA as a new diagnostic imaging agent in prostate cancer patients prior to undergoing definitive therapy.
Dr Alan Taylor, Executive Chairperson of Clarity Pharmaceuticals, commented, "This milestone is a significant achievement from our team and collaborators as we progress our optimised 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA product towards trial completion and subsequent US FDA New Drug Application (NDA) submission. We now have two registrational Phase III trials with 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA that have successfully completed recruitment and are in the process of patient follow-up, in line with the trials' protocols. We look forward to the upcoming data readout from CLARIFY outlining the sensitivity and specificity of our 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA product.
"The development of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA aims to address a significant gap in patient care for the accurate initial staging of prostate cancer (CLARIFY trial) and detection of recurrent disease (AMPLIFY trial). Currently approved prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET agents have reported sensitivities of 27%-40%, according to their respective Phase III pivotal studies, based on the detection of pelvic lymph node metastases prior to prostatectomy (verified by histopathology)[4-9]. Importantly, none of these agents achieved the prespecified primary endpoint thresholds for sensitivity in their respective pivotal trials [4-9]. This means that the currently approved PSMA PET agents did not detect prostate cancer in the pelvic lymph nodes in more than half of the study participants in whom such metastases were confirmed by histopathology. We believe that this substantial limitation in sensitivity warrants the development of next-generation products that provide greater diagnostic confidence to clinicians and support more informed management of patients with prostate cancer.
"64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA has demonstrated higher diagnostic performance with increased product uptake compared to standard-of-care (SOC) PSMA PET agents in clinical trials to date[2],[10-11]. This improvement is enabled by our innovative, science-driven approach where we optimised the product with a bivalent bisPSMA molecule and explored next-day imaging benefits, made possible by the proprietary SAR Technology and the half-life of copper-64. With strong data supporting the development of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA, we believe this product has the potential to overcome the shortcomings of the current-generation PSMA PET and improve outcomes for patients with prostate cancer.
"What is most important about the CLARIFY trial is that this study is the first to determine the sensitivity and specificity of our SAR-bisPSMA product, based on the appropriate assessment of true positive, true negative, false positive and false negative lesions that can only be determined accurately using histopathology specimens (in this case, pelvic lymph nodes that are surgically removed during prostatectomy). Utilising similar principles in study design to those previously used by other PSMA imaging agents on the market for their respective registrational Phase III studies, CLARIFY will provide sensitivity and specificity estimates for same-day and next-day imaging, as well as have direct comparative data to SOC PSMA imaging where SOC PET was undertaken. As sensitivity and specificity are fundamental measures of a diagnostic test's accuracy and are of high clinical importance, this trial will provide clinicians with valuable information through direct comparisons of those parameters across imaging timepoints and against real-world SOC PSMA imaging. Having the most accurate diagnostic information is essential for clinicians to determine the best course of treatment for their patients. Such treatment pathways may be quite distinct, including the removal of the prostate, with considerable long-lasting morbidities in some cases, or other more conservative approaches, personalised to each patient and potentially preserving quality of life post-treatment.
"As we move closer towards product launch, we look forward to making 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA available to the patients who need it most. We hope this will represent a paradigm shift in management of prostate cancer through improved accuracy for the detection of disease, while making radiopharmaceuticals more accessible through centralised product manufacture and broad distribution to any imaging centre with a PET camera, with flexibility in the timing of the scan."
About SAR-bisPSMA
SAR-bisPSMA derives its name from the word "bis", which reflects a novel approach of connecting two PSMA-targeting agents to Clarity's proprietary sarcophagine (SAR) technology that securely holds copper isotopes inside a cage-like structure, called a chelator. Unlike other commercially available chelators, the SAR technology prevents copper leakage into the body. SAR-bisPSMA is a Targeted Copper Theranostic (TCT) that can be used with isotopes of copper-64 (Cu-64 or 64Cu) for imaging and copper-67 (Cu-67 or 67Cu) for therapy.
Disclaimer
64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA and 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA are unregistered products. Their safety and efficacy have not been assessed by health authorities such as the US FDA or the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). There is no guarantee that these products will become commercially available.
