Inoperable Solid Tumors or Lymphomas Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Dose Escalation Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Dosimetry, Maximum Tolerated Dose and Preliminary Efficacy of Intra-lesionally Injected AvidinOX, Followed by Systemic IV Administration of Escalating Doses of [177Lu]DOTA-biotin in Patients With Solid Tumors or Lymphomas With Injectable Neoplastic Lesions.

Local treatment of unresectable tumors is challenging, particularly with radioactivity. Current practice relies on external beam irradiation or on a variety of medical devices for brachytherapy. Both approaches proved useful in controlling tumor growth but are characterized by poor patient's compliance, significant side effects, high costs and technological complexity hampering wide-spread use. The use of AvidinOX for radionuclide therapy of inoperable cancer lesions will offer a number of advantages compared to current brachytherapy. In fact, the perfusion of a target tissue with AvidinOX, compared to current devices, will allow adapting the therapy to the tumor/organ shape, and it will also make it possible to delay the administration of radioactivity for several days which, according to pre-clinical studies, might be also divided up into repeated doses. AvidinOX linking stably to tissue proteins, does not exhibit the problem of seed migration which is associated with high morbidity. Based on previous findings with AvidinOX in combination with radionuclides in pre-clinical studies as well as data from the clinical use in liver metastases, it can be assumed that intralesional injections of AvidinOX followed by intravenous injections of 177Lu-ST2210 could be a safe and efficacious method for treating inoperable tumor lesions.

Main Inclusion Criteria: - Presence of inoperable tumor lesion/s from histologically confirmed solid tumors or lymphomas, in patients with at least one lesion = 1 cm and suitable for intra-lesional injection, who have disease progression after treatment with available therapies, or who are intolerant to such treatments - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of = 2 - If the patient received previous radiation therapy, the total absorbed radiation dose at the bone marrow level must be = 1 Gy - Life expectancy of at least 3 months - Total tumor burden requiring = 75 mL AvidinOX injection - Clotting parameters within normal limits or maximum 25% outside of the the normal ranges - Haematological and liver function test results = grade 2 toxicity (according to US National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology) Criteria for Adverse Events v4.03 [CTCAE - Urine protein (dipstick): negative or trace; in case of trace, a urinalysis has to be performed in the local laboratory and have to confirm that such abnormality is not to be considered clinically significant, according to the investigator's judgement - Creatinine = 1.7 mg/dL - eGFR> 60% of mean age adjusted normal values - Written informed consent Main Exclusion Criteria: - Known hypersensitivity to Avidin or AvidinOX (e.g. hen egg) - Known hypersensitivity to ST2210 (DOTA biotin) or any excipient. - Presence of unreachable (e.g. located in a region that cannot be reached by needle) or untreatable tumor lesions so that the benefit from the treatment of the treatable lesions does not justify patient's inclusion - Active infection at screening or history of severe infection within the previous 3 months, if clinically relevant at screening as considered by the investigator - Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive serology or chronically active hepatitis B or C. - Administration of another investigational medicinal product within 30 days before the screening period. - Patient who underwent chemotherapy, radiation therapy within 15 days before the screening period - Previous treatment with any radiopharmaceutical within a period corresponding to 8 half-lives of the radionuclide used for labeling the respective radiopharmaceutical prior to the administration of study drug. - Women of child-bearing potential without a serum negative pregnancy test and not willing to refrain from sexual activity or to utilize an adeguate contraceptive methods during all the course of the study - Men unwilling to use appropriate contraceptive methods during the study and up to six months follow-up period |
