Phase I/II Dose-escalation Study of Lutetium-177-labeled cG250 in Patients With Advanced Renal Cancer

October 3, 2022 updated by: Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research

Phase I/II Study of Increasing Doses of Lutetium-177 Labeled Chimeric Monoclonal Antibody cG250 (177^Lu-DOTA-cG250) in Patients With Advanced Renal Cancer

This was a Phase I/II, single-center, dose-escalation study. 177-Lutetium-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid-cG250 (177-Lu-DOTA-cG250) was administered at a starting dose of 30 mCi/m^2 of 177-Lu (fixed dose of 10 mg cG250) and escalated in increments of 10 mCi/m^2 of 177-Lu in sequentially enrolled cohorts according to a standard 3 + 3 design until determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). The primary objectives were to determine the safety, targeting, and dosimetry of 177-Lu-DOTA-cG250 in subjects with advanced renal cell carcinoma. The secondary objective was measurement of tumor response according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.0.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Prior to administration of 177-Lu-DOTA-cG250, subjects received 5 mCi/10 mg of the 111-Indium-DOTA-cG250 (111-In-DOTA-cG250) antibody (an imaging dose). Whole body and blood measurements of radioactivity were obtained on at least 3 occasions for 1 week to determine targeting and dosimetry. If at least one known and evaluable metastatic lesion was visualized with 111-In-DOTA-cG250, a single dose of therapeutic 177-Lu-DOTA-cG250 was administered the following week. In the absence of disease progression and after recovery from toxicity, subjects may have been retreated no sooner than 12 weeks after the previous treatment with a dose of no more than 75% of the previous dose, for a total of not more than 3 treatments. Only subjects with normal pharmacokinetics on the diagnostic 111-In-DOTA-cG250 study (indicative of human anti-chimeric antibody [HACA] negativity) were eligible for re-treatment.

Subjects in the initial cohort were enrolled sequentially to receive 30 mCi/m^2 of 177-Lu-DOTA-cG250 (fixed dose of 10 mg cG250). In the absence of a dose-limiting toxicity, the dose was escalated in each subsequent cohort in 10 mCi/m^2 increments of 177-Lu. At least 3 subjects per dose level were followed for up to 12 weeks with imaging, biochemical, and hematologic tests. Safety was monitored continuously throughout the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events
Time Frame: Up to 1 year
Toxicity was graded in accordance with the NCI CTCAE version 3.0. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported based on clinical laboratory tests, physical examinations, and vital signs from pre-treatment through 4 weeks after the last dose of study treatment.
Up to 1 year
Number of Subjects With Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) During Cycle 1
Time Frame: 12 weeks
Subjects were monitored for AEs for ≥ 8 weeks after the last infusion of 177-Lu-DOTA-cG250 before dose escalation could be implemented. Toxicity was graded in accordance with the NCI CTCAE version 3.0. DLT was defined as the following treatment-related events: ≥ Grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity; ≥ Grade 4 hematologic toxicity (platelets < 25 × 10^9/L or leukocytes < 1.0 × 10^9/L) that persisted for > 4 weeks except anemia; thrombocytopenia < 10 × 10^9/L; clinically relevant myelotoxicity that required hospitalization and/or blood product transfusion (e.g., uncontrolled bleeding, infections that had to be treated clinically).
12 weeks
Radiation Absorbed Doses by Organ for 177-Lu-cG250
Time Frame: 12 weeks
After each 177-Lu-cG250 administration, 3 whole-body scintigrams were acquired (directly after injection and 2-4 days and 5-7 days post-injection) and blood samples were drawn at 5, 30, 60, and 120 min, 2-4 days, and 5-7 days post-infusion. Estimated radiation absorbed doses were calculated according to the Medical Internal Radiation Dose scheme, which permits estimation of the factors required to calculate dose to one organ attributable to a source in another organ.
12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Subjects With Best Overall Tumor Response
Time Frame: Up to 9 months
Tumor responses were evaluated using computed tomography and categorized according to RECIST v1.0 at baseline and at the end of every cycle (every 12 weeks) or after recovery from toxicity. Per RECIST v1.0 for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions [no evidence of disease]; Partial Response (PR): ≥ 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Progressive Disease (PD): ≥ 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Stable Disease (SD): small changes that do not meet above criteria.
Up to 9 months
