Clinical Trial Summary

The study should evaluate distribution of 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 Affibody molecule in patients with primary HER2-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer

The primary objectives are:

1. To assess distribution of 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 in normal tissues and in tumors over time;

2. To evaluate dosimetry of 99mTc-ZHER2:41071;

3. To obtain initial information concerning safety and tolerability of 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 after single intravenous injection:

The secondary objectives are:

1. To compare the tumor imaging data with the data concerning HER2 expression obtained by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and/or fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis of biopsy samples.

Description:

Overall goal of the project: To determine HER2 expression level in primary breast cancer and possibly in axillary lymph node metastases before neoadjuvant targeted (trastuzumab or trastuzumab+pertuzumab) therapy.

3. To obtain initial information concerning safety and tolerability of 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 after single intravenous injection:

The secondary objectives are:

1. To compare the tumour imaging data with the concerning HER2 expression obtained by immunohistochemistry (IHC) or fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis of biopsy samples:

Methodology:

Open-label, exploratory, single center study. The subjects will receive a single injection of the labelled tracer.

Primary	Gamma camera-based whole-body 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 uptake value (% per organ)	Whole-body 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 uptake coinciding with normal organs and tissues will be assessed using gamma camera at 2, 4, 6 and 24 hours after injection and calculated as percentage (%) of the injected dose of the radiopharmaceutical	24 hours
Primary	SPECT/CT-based 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 uptake value in tumor lesions (kcounts)/SUV	99mTc-ZHER2:41071 focal uptake coinciding with tumor lesions will be assessed using SPECT/CT at 2, 4 and 6 hours after injection and measured in kcounts and SUV	6 hours
Primary	SPECT-based 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 background uptake value (kcounts)/SUV	Uptake of 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 in the regions without pathological findings will be assessed using SPECT/CT at 2, 4 and 6 hours after injection and measured in kcounts and SUV.	6 hours
Primary	Tumor-to-background ratio (SPECT)	The SPECT-based tumor-to-background ratio will be calculated as follows: the value of 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 uptake coinciding with tumor lesions (kcounts) will be divided by the value of 99mTc-ZHER2:41071 uptake coinciding with the regions without pathological findings (kcounts)	6 hours
