ADVANCED SERIES TRUST

**AST Core Fixed Income Portfolio**

**SUMMARY PROSPECTUS • May 1, 2026**

------

*Before you invest, you may want to review the Portfolio's Prospectus, which contains more information about the Portfolio and its risks. You can ﬁnd the Portfolio's Prospectus, Statement of Additional Information (SAI), Annual Report and other information about the Portfolio online at www.prudential.com/variableinsuranceportfolios. You can also get this information at no cost by calling 1-800-346-3778 or by sending an e-mail to: service@prudential.com. The Portfolio's Prospectus and SAI, both dated May 1, 2026, as supplemented and amended from time to time, and the Portfolio's most recent shareholder report, dated December 31, 2025 are all hereby incorporated by reference into (legally made a part of) this Summary Prospectus.*

**INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE**

The investment objective of the Portfolio is to seek to maximize total return, consistent with prudent investment management and liquidity needs, by investing to obtain the average duration specified for the Core Fixed Income Portfolio.

**PORTFOLIO FEES AND EXPENSES**

The table below shows the fees and expenses that you may pay if you invest in shares of the Portfolio. The table does not include Contract charges. Because Contract charges are not included, the total fees and expenses that you will incur will be higher than the fees and expenses set forth in the table. See your Contract prospectus for more information about Contract charges.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)** |  |
| Management Fees | 0.41% |
| + Distribution and/or Service Fees (12b-1 Fees) | 0.25% |
| + Other Expenses | 0.02% |
| = Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses | 0.68% |

---

**Example.** The following example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Portfolio with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The table does not include Contract charges. Because Contract charges are not included, the total fees and expenses that you will incur will be higher than the fees and expenses set forth in the example. See your Contract prospectus for more information about Contract charges.

The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolio for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Portfolio's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **1 Year**  | **3 Years**  | **5 Years**  | **10 Years**  |
| AST Core Fixed Income Portfolio  | $69  | $218  | $379  | $847 |

---

**Portfolio Turnover.** The Portfolio pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in annual portfolio operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio's performance. During the Portfolio's most recent fiscal year ended December 31, the Portfolio's portfolio turnover rate was 175% of the average value of its portfolio.

**INVESTMENTS, RISKS AND PERFORMANCE**

**Principal Investment Strategies.** 

In pursuing its investment objective, the Portfolio normally invests at least 80% of its assets (net assets plus any borrowings made for investment purposes) in debt and fixed income securities, including mortgage and other asset-backed securities, such as collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), collateralized bond obligations (CBOs), collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) and, other collateralized debt obligations (CDOs). The Portfolio may invest up to 20% of its net assets in debt securities that are rated, at the time of purchase, below investment grade but rated at least B-/ B3 or higher by a nationally rated statistical rating organization (NRSRO). Obligations rated BB+/ Ba1 or lower by a NRSRO, or if unrated, considered by the subadviser to be of comparable quality, are considered to be speculative with respect to their capacity to pay interest and principal and are commonly referred to as high-yield debt securities or junk bonds.

The target dollar weighted average effective duration of the Portfolio is expected to range within 30% of the duration of the domestic bond market as a whole (as measured by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index). The Portfolio's dollar weighted average effective duration may fall outside of its expected dollar weighted average effective duration range due to market movements. If this happens, the Portfolio's subadviser will take action to bring the Portfolio's dollar weighted average effective duration back within its expected dollar weighted average effective duration range within a reasonable

306SUMPROS

------

period of time. Duration refers to the range within which the dollar weighted average effective duration of the Portfolio is expected to fluctuate. Effective duration measures the expected sensitivity of market price to changes in interest rates, taking into account the effects of structural complexities (for example, some bonds can be prepaid by the issuer). The duration of the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index was approximately 5.76 years as of January 31, 2026.

The Portfolio may invest in other pooled investment vehicles, including other portfolios of the Trust, other open-end or closed-end investment companies, and both active and passive exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

In addition to the Portfolio's investment in those underlying pooled investment vehicles, the Portfolio may also invest its assets in the AST PGIM Fixed Income Central Portfolio (the PGIM Central Portfolio). The PGIM Central Portfolio is a special type of investment vehicle for sole use by certain asset allocation portfolios, including the Portfolio. The PGIM Central Portfolio normally invests at least 80% of its assets (net assets plus any borrowings made for investment purposes) in investment grade bonds. Rather than buy bonds directly, the Portfolio may invest in the PGIM Central Portfolio.

The Portfolio may invest in derivatives. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments to hedge its investments or to seek to enhance returns. In addition, the Portfolio may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in the securities of non-US issuers and may invest up to 20% of its total assets in non-US dollar denominated securities.

The Portfolio is allocated among four subadvisers: PGIM Fixed Income/PGIM Limited (collectively, PGIM Fixed Income), Wellington Management Company LLP (Wellington Management), and J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. Further, the Strategic Investment Research Group of the Manager determines the allocation among the subadvisers based on its analysis, taking into account market conditions, risks and other factors.

**Principal Risks of Investing in the Portfolio.** The risks summarized below are the principal risks of investing in the Portfolio. The relative significance of the risks summarized below may change over time. All investments have risks to some degree, and it is possible that you could lose money by investing in the Portfolio. An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit with a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. While the Portfolio makes every effort to achieve its objective, the Portfolio cannot guarantee success. To the extent the Portfolio invests in underlying investment companies or other underlying portfolios, the Portfolio may be exposed to these risks directly through securities and other investments held directly by the Portfolio or indirectly through investments made by underlying portfolios in which the Portfolio invests.

**Fixed Income Securities Risk**. Investment in fixed income securities involves a variety of risks, including that: an issuer or guarantor of a security will be unable or unwilling to pay obligations when due; due to decreases in liquidity, the Portfolio may be unable to sell its securities holdings within a reasonable time at the price it values the security or at any price; and the Portfolio's investment may decrease in value when interest rates rise. Volatility in interest rates and in fixed income markets may increase the risk that the Portfolio's investment in fixed income securities will go down in value. To the extent rates increase substantially and/or rapidly, a Portfolio may be subject to significant losses if it has significant investments in fixed income investments. Changes in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of the Portfolio's investments in fixed income securities.

**Asset Transfer Program Risk**. Predetermined, nondiscretionary mathematical formulas used by the participating insurance companies to manage the guarantees offered in connection with certain benefit programs under the Contracts may result in systematic transfers of assets among the investment options under the Contracts, including the Portfolio. These formulas may result in large-scale asset flows into and out of the Portfolio, which could adversely affect the Portfolio, including its risk profile, expenses, and performance. For example, the asset flows may adversely affect performance by requiring the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities at inopportune times, by otherwise limiting the subadviser's ability to fully implement the Portfolio's investment strategies, or by requiring the Portfolio to hold a larger portion of its assets in highly liquid securities than it otherwise would hold. The asset flows may also result in high turnover, low asset levels, and high operating expense ratios for the Portfolio. The asset flows could remove all or substantially all the assets of the Portfolio. The efficient operation of the asset flows depends on active and liquid markets. If market liquidity is strained, the asset flows may not operate as intended which in turn could adversely affect performance.

**High Yield Risk**. Investments in fixed income instruments rated below investment grade and unrated instruments of similar credit quality (i.e., "high yield securities" or "junk bonds") may be more sensitive to interest rate, credit, call, and liquidity risks than investments in investment grade securities, and have predominantly speculative characteristics. An economic downturn generally leads to a higher non-payment rate, and a high yield investment may lose significant value before a default occurs.

**Asset-Backed and/or Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk**. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities primarily are fixed income securities that represent an interest in an underlying pool of assets, such as credit card receivables or, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, mortgage loans. Like fixed income securities, asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are subject to interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and credit risk, which may be heightened in connection with investments in loans to "subprime" borrowers. Certain asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are subject to the risk that those obligations will be repaid sooner than expected or later than expected, either of which may result in lower-than-expected returns. Mortgage-backed securities, because they are backed by mortgage loans, are also subject to risks related to real estate, and securities backed by private-issued mortgages may experience higher rates of default on the underlying mortgages than securities backed by government-issued mortgages.

**Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO) Risk:** The risks of an investment in a CDO, which can include collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), depend largely on the quality and type of the collateral and the tranche of the CDO in which the Portfolio invests. Investments in CDOs may be illiquid. In addition to the risks associated with debt instruments (e.g., interest rate risk and credit risk), CDOs carry additional risks including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the possibility that the Portfolio may invest in CDOs that are subordinate to other classes of the issuer's securities; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results.

------

**Credit Risk.** This is the risk that the issuer, the guarantor, or the insurer of a fixed income security, the counterparty to an investment or derivatives contract, or obligor of an obligation underlying an asset-backed security may be unable or unwilling to make timely principal and interest payments or to otherwise honor its obligations. Litigation, legislation or other political events, business or economic conditions, or the bankruptcy of the issuer could have a significant effect on an issuer's or obligor's ability to make payments of principal and/or interest. The lower the credit quality of a bond, the more sensitive it is to credit risk, and the credit quality of an investment can deteriorate rapidly.

**Currency Risk.** Currency risk is the risk that fluctuations in exchange rates will adversely affect the market value of a Portfolio's investments, including the risk that the currencies in which the Portfolio's investments are traded or in which the Portfolio receives income will decline in value relative to the US dollar. The overall impact on a Portfolio's holdings can be significant, and long-lasting, depending on the currencies represented in the portfolio and how each foreign currency appreciates or depreciates in relation to the US dollar and whether currency positions are hedged. Further, since exchange rate movements are volatile, a Portfolio's attempt at hedging could be unsuccessful, and it is not possible to effectively hedge the currency risks of many emerging market countries.

**Equity and Equity-Related Securities Risk**. From time to time, the Portfolio may purchase or hold equity or equity-related securities incidental to the purchase or ownership of fixed income instruments or in connection with a reorganization of a borrower. These include common stock, preferred stock or securities that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock—known as convertible securities—like rights and warrants. The value of a particular equity or equity-related security held by a Portfolio could fluctuate, perhaps greatly, in response to a number of factors, such as changes in the issuer's financial condition, changes in interest rates, or heightened levels of inflation. Such events may result in losses to the Portfolio. In addition, due to decreases in liquidity, the Portfolio may be unable to sell its securities holdings within a reasonable time at the price it values the security or at any price.

**Exchange-Traded Funds (ETF) Risk**. An investment in an ETF generally presents the same primary risks as an investment in a mutual fund that has the same investment objective, strategies, and policies. In addition, the market price of an ETF's shares may trade above or below its net asset value and there may not be an active trading market for an ETF's shares. The Portfolio could lose money investing in an ETF if the prices of the securities owned by the ETF go down.

**Expense Risk**. The actual cost of investing in the Portfolio may be higher than the expenses shown in the "Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses" table above for a variety of reasons, including, for example, if the Portfolio's average net assets decrease.

**Foreign Investment Risk**. Foreign markets tend to be more volatile than US markets and are generally not subject to regulatory requirements comparable to those in the US. Foreign securities include investments in securities of foreign issuers denominated in foreign currencies, as well as securities of foreign issuers denominated in US dollars and American Depositary Receipts. Foreign investment risk includes the risk that: changes in currency exchange rates may affect the value of foreign securities held by the Portfolio; foreign markets generally are more volatile than, and generally are not subject to regulatory requirements comparable to, US markets; foreign financial reporting and tax standards usually differ from those in the US; foreign exchanges are often less liquid than US markets; political or social developments may adversely affect the value of foreign securities; foreign holdings may be subject to special taxation and limitations on repatriating investment proceeds; and certain events in foreign markets may adversely affect foreign and domestic issuers, including, among others, military conflict, geopolitical developments, interruptions in the global supply chain, natural disasters, and outbreaks of infectious diseases.

**Fund of Funds Risk**. In addition to the risks associated with the investment in an underlying portfolio, the Portfolio is exposed to the investment objectives, investment risks, and investment performance of the underlying portfolios. The Portfolio is also subject to a potential conflict of interest between the Portfolio and its investment manager(s) and subadviser(s), which could impact the Portfolio. Moreover, the Portfolio will incur its pro rata share of the relevant underlying portfolios' expenses, which will reduce the Portfolio's performance.

**Interest Rate Risk**. The value of your investment may go down when interest rates rise. A rise in interest rates tends to have a greater impact on the prices of longer term or duration securities. When interest rates fall, the issuers of debt obligations may prepay principal more quickly than expected, and the Portfolio may be required to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate. This is referred to as "prepayment risk." When interest rates rise, debt obligations may be repaid more slowly than expected, and the value of the Portfolio's holdings may fall sharply. This is referred to as "extension risk." As interest rates rise, the value of fixed income investments typically decreases and there is risk that rates across the financial system also may rise. To the extent rates increase substantially and/or rapidly, a Portfolio with significant investment in fixed income investments may be subject to significant losses. The Portfolio may lose money if short-term or long-term interest rates rise sharply or in a manner not anticipated by the subadviser. Decreases in interest rates create the potential for a decrease in income earned by a Portfolio. During periods of very low or negative interest rates, the Portfolio may be unable to maintain positive returns. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from Portfolio performance.

------

**Liquidity and Valuation Risk**. The Portfolio may hold one or more securities for which there are no or few buyers and sellers or the securities are subject to limitations on transfer. The Portfolio may be unable to sell those portfolio holdings at the desired time or price, and may have difficulty determining the value of such securities for the purpose of determining the Portfolio's net asset value. In such cases, investments owned by the Portfolio may be valued at fair value pursuant to policies and procedures adopted and implemented by the Manager. No assurance can be given that the fair value prices accurately reflect the value of the security. The Portfolio is subject to a liquidity risk management program, which limits the ability of the Portfolio to invest in illiquid investments.

**Market and Management Risk**. Markets in which the Portfolio invests may experience volatility and go down in value, and possibly sharply and unpredictably in short periods of time. Investment techniques, risk analyses, and investment strategies, which may include quantitative models or methods, used by a subadviser in making investment decisions for the Portfolio are subject to human error and may not produce the intended or desired results. While a portfolio manager or Subadviser(s) may make efforts to control the risks associated with market changes, and may attempt to identify changes as they occur, market environment changes can be sudden and extreme. The value of the Portfolio's investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of domestic or global events, including war, terrorism, significant or unexpected failures, near-failures or credit downgrades of key institutions, unexpected changes in the prices of key commodities, government actions, including the threat of or actual imposition of tariffs, environmental disasters, natural disasters, sanctions, cybersecurity events, supply chain disruptions, political or civil instability, and public health emergencies, among others. Such events may reduce consumer demand or economic output, result in market closures, travel restrictions or quarantines, and significantly adversely impact the economy. These events can disrupt the operations of the Portfolio and its service providers, adversely affect the liquidity and volatility of investments held by the Portfolio, and negatively impact the Portfolio's performance. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Portfolio will be achieved. In periods of market volatility and/or declines, the Portfolio may experience high levels of shareholder redemptions, and may have to sell securities at times when it would otherwise not do so, and at unfavorable prices.

**Portfolio Turnover Risk**. A subadviser may engage in active trading on behalf of the Portfolio—that is, frequent trading of the Portfolio's securities—in order to take advantage of new investment opportunities or yield differentials. The Portfolio's turnover rate may be higher than that of other mutual funds. Portfolio turnover generally involves some expense to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestment in other securities.

**Prepayment or Call Risk.** Prepayment or call risk is the risk that issuers will prepay fixed-rate obligations held by the Portfolio when interest rates fall, forcing a Portfolio to reinvest in obligations with lower interest rates than the original obligations. Mortgage-related securities and asset-backed securities are particularly subject to prepayment risk.

**Redemption Risk.** A Portfolio that serves as an underlying fund for a fund of funds is subject to certain risks. When a fund of funds reallocates or rebalances its investments, an underlying fund may experience relatively large redemptions or investments. These transactions may cause the Portfolio serving as the underlying fund to sell portfolio securities to meet such redemptions, or to invest cash from such investments, at times that it would not otherwise do so, and may as a result increase transaction costs or adversely affect Portfolio performance.

**Regulatory Risk**. The Portfolio is subject to a variety of laws and regulations which govern its operations. The Portfolio is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Similarly, the businesses and other issuers of the securities and other instruments in which the Portfolio invests are also subject to considerable regulation. Changes in laws and regulations may materially impact the Portfolio, a security, business, sector, or market.

**Past Performance.** The bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio by showing changes in the Portfolio's performance from year to year and by showing how the Portfolio's average annual returns for 1, 5, and 10 years compare with those of a broad-based securities market index that reflects the performance of the overall market applicable to the Portfolio. Past performance does not mean that the Portfolio will achieve similar results in the future.

The annual returns and average annual returns shown in the chart and table are after deduction of expenses and do not include Contract charges. If Contract charges were included, the returns shown would have been lower than those shown. Consult your Contract prospectus for information about Contract charges.

*Note: The AST Core Fixed Income Portfolio added a subadviser and changed certain investment strategies, effective September 27, 2024. The performance figures prior to September 27, 2024 for the Portfolio reflect the Portfolio's former investment operations, policies, strategies and subadvisers prior to this date. Such performance is not representative of the Portfolio's current investment operations, policies, strategies, and subadvisers that took effect as of this date, and the Portfolio's performance after this date could be materially different.*

**TAX INFORMATION**

Contract owners should consult the prospectus of the appropriate separate account or description of the plan for a discussion and information on the tax consequences of the Contract, policy or plan. In addition, Contract owners may wish to consult with their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of investments in the Contracts and the Portfolio, including the application of US federal, state and local and non-US taxes. The Portfolio currently intends to be treated as a partnership for US federal income tax purposes. As a result, the Portfolio's income, gains, losses, deductions, and credits are "passed through" pro rata directly to the Participating Insurance Companies and retain the same character for US federal income tax purposes.

------

**FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARY COMPENSATION**

If you purchase your Contract through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Participating Insurance Company, the Portfolio, or their related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of the Contract, the selection of the Portfolio, and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Contract over another investment or insurance product, or to recommend the Portfolio over another investment option under the Contract. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
