131Iodine-Tenatumomab Treatment in Tenascin-C Positive Cancer Patients (Tenatumomab)

A Dose Escalation Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability Dosimetry, Pharmacokinetics and Preliminary Efficacy of 131I-Tenatumomab Treatment in Tenascin-C Positive Cancer Patients

Tenatumomab is a Sigma-Tau developed new anti-Tenascin antibody. It is a murine monoclonal antibody directed towards Tenascin-C. By means of this antibody, Tenascin-C expression was studied on a commercial tissue array slides each carrying malignant breast, colorectal, lung, ovarian or B and T cell Non-Hodgkin Limphoma tissue sections. All these cancers type showed positivity to Tenascin-C between the 64% and 13.3%. Consequently, Sigma-tau is exploring the use of the 131I-labeled Tenatumomab for anti-cancer radioimmunotherapy.

Study Overview

• Status: Terminated
• Conditions: Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin; Breast Neoplasm; Digestive System Neoplasm; Pancreatic Neoplasm; Head and Neck Neoplasm; Skin Neoplasm; Respiratory Tract Neoplasm; Urogenital Neoplasm; Connective and Soft Tissue Neoplasm
• Intervention / Treatment: Combination product: 131I-Tenatumomab

Detailed Description

This will be an open-label dose escalation study. The study will be conducted in two steps:

1. STEP A aims to identify the optimal amount of antibody to convey the specific radio-label activity of radionuclide.
2. STEP B will be conducted with the amount of antibody chosen in STEP A, and an escalating radio-labeled therapeutic dose response curve will be performed (3.5 to 5.5 GBq) A maximum of 36 evaluable patients suffering from treatment-refractory Tenascin-C positive tumors.

This dose escalation study will be evaluated using descriptive statistics: no sample size calculation was performed

Primary objectives

1. To identify the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and assess Safety and Tolerability of i.v. infused 131I-Tenatumomab.
2. To identify the optimal amount of unlabeled Tenatumomab able to convey 131I- Tenatumomab with the highest Tumor/nonTumor ratio.
3. To evaluate the whole body Dosimetry (safety dosimetry) and Tumor to normal tissue ratio (T/nT ratio, referred to AUC) of i.v.infused 131I-Tenatumomab.
4. To evaluate intra-lesional distribution and retention of 131I-Tenatumomab and to record individual lesion dosimetry.
5. To evaluate systemic biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, urinary excretion and dose linearity of 131I-Tenatumomab.

Secondary objectives

1. To evaluate proportional 131I-Tenatumomab tumor binding, as a function of the total load.
2. To evaluate Pharmacokinetics of Tenatumomab (protein and protein related materials) in serum.
3. To evaluate preliminary Efficacy of 131I-Tenatumomab based on disease response rate (Complete Response, Partial Response, Stable Disease) and patient's general clinical condition by ECOG performance status assessment.

• Genders Eligible for Study: All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

• 1. Written informed consent.
• 2. A patient who has (a) a histologically documented advanced tumor that has relapsed from, or is refractory to, standard treatment and for which no other standard treatment is available and (b) confirmed Tenascin-C expression obtained through a biopsy on at least one reachable tumor lesion.

These patients will have failed one or more prior therapeutic line and had assessable and measurable disease expression, but were not considered eligible for other standard approaches with curative intent, as assessed by the Investigator.

• 5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG), or WHO performance status of ≤ 2 or Karnofsky > 60
• 6. Life expectancy of at least 3 months.
• 7. Negative pregnancy test for all women of child-bearing potential. Appropriate contraception (one highly effective method or a combination of acceptable methods) is to be used during the study period and until 90 days after the last follow-up visit (End of Study Visit)
