This study is Phase I/IIa First-in-Human Study of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET Targeted Alpha-Particle Therapy for Advanced SSTR2 Positive Tumors
This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, radioactivity dose-finding/ dose expansion study of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET in up to approximately 300 adult subjects with unresectable or metastatic SSTR2-expressing tumors who have not received prior peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT).
Somatostatin Receptor type 2 (SSTR2) is highly expressed on various tumors including Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), meningioma and therefore is an attractive therapeutic target. Lead-212 ([212Pb]-) based peptide-radiopharmaceuticals are an emerging class of targeted alpha-particle cancer therapies that have potential to improve delivery of a highly effective form of radiation.
[212Pb] VMT-a-NET is a targeted alpha therapy agent designed to enhance the precision and effectiveness of cancer treatment by delivering a highly potent form of radiation directly to cancer cells. This approach aims to maximize radiation delivery to tumors while minimizing exposure to healthy tissues.
The study will be conducted in 2 parts:
Part 1: Phase I Dose-Finding: Subjects will receive radioactive doses of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observation, determining Optimal Biological Dose (OBD) and potential Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) for Part 2 (Dose Expansion). Dose changes or adjustments will be made by the safety monitoring committee (SMC) and Sponsor.
The RP2D will be determined following a holistic analysis of observed DLTs, Adverse Events (AEs), estimated cumulative organ radiation exposure, and efficacy signals over the course of all treatment cycles for all dose cohorts.
Part 2: Phase IIa Dose-Expansion: This part will enroll subjects with gastroenteropancreatic NETS, bronchial NETS, pheochromocytoma or paragangliomas, and meningioma. Subjects will receive RP2D identified in Part 1 for further assessment of safety and preliminary efficacy.
Reno-protective amino acids will be co-administered prior to each [212Pb]VMT-α-NET dose in all subjects. Dose-finding will be based on an adaptive design until optimal biologic dose is identified or the pre-specified rules are met.
A dosimetry sub-study using [203Pb]VMT-α-NET will be conducted. The subjects will undergo dosimetric evaluation prior to receiving the therapeutic agent.
Exclusion Criteria:
Dose Finding to determine OBD and potential RP2D in up to 200 patients receiving up to 4 administrations of \[212Pb\]VMT-α-NET approximately 8 weeks apart. A dosimetry sub-study utilizing \[203Pb\]VMT-α-NET is incorporated into the study.
Drug: [203Pb]VMT-α-NET · Drug: [212Pb]VMT-α-NET
Dose up to 100 subjects (gastroenteropancreatic NETs, bronchial NETs, and pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma and meningioma) at RP2D for further assessment of safety and preliminary efficacy.
Drug: [203Pb]VMT-α-NET · Drug: [212Pb]VMT-α-NET
\[203Pb\]VMT-α-NET is administered by intravenous bolus injection for single-photon emission computed tomography imaging.
\[212Pb\]VMT-α-NET is administered by intravenous infusion for treatment of SSTR2 expressing tumors.
Number of participants with dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) after the first administration of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET
DLTs describe side effects of a drug that are serious enough to prevent an increase in dose
Time frame: Incidence and severity of DLTs during the first 42 days of study treatment will be assessed.
Objective response rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) Version 1.1 in subjects with NETs
Percentage of subjects with complete responses (CRs) or partial responses (PRs) to at least 1 administration of \[212Pb\]VMT-α-NET
Time frame: Up to week 96
ORR per Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) meningioma criteria in subjects with meningioma
Percentage of subjects with complete responses (CRs) or partial responses (PRs) to at least 1 administration of \[212Pb\]VMT-α-NET
Time frame: Up to week 96
Number of subjects with adverse events (AEs)
Any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigational participant administered \[212Pb\]VMT-α-NET and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. Associated Adverse Events (AE) or Serious AEs are assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5.0.
Time frame: Until the end of study (3 years after end-of-study visit)
Anti-tumor efficacy of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET in terms of tumor response
Determination of the best overall response rate (BOR) by RECIST v1.1 in subjects with neuroendocrine tumors or RANO in meningioma subjects
Time frame: Until the end of study (3 years after end-of-study visit)
Determine the duration of response (DOR) receiving [212Pb]VMT-α-NET.
The length of time that a tumor continues to respond to treatment without the cancer growing or spreading determined by RECIST v1.1 or RANO
Time frame: Up to week 96
Determination of Progression-free survival (PFS)
PFS is how long a subject lives without the disease worsening as evaluated by RECIST v1.1 or RANO
Time frame: Up to week 96
To investigate the Overall Survival (OS) following treatment with [212Pb]VMT-α-NET
OS is how long a subject lives after a subject starts treatment
