Dose-Escalation of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu in Solid Tumors

May 19, 2025 updated by: Monopar Therapeutics

Open Label, Phase 1a, Dose-Escalation Study Evaluating the Safety of Fractionated MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu Dosing in the Treatment of Solid Tumor Cancers

This is an open-label, uncontrolled, multi-center, phase 1a MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu dose-escalation study in patients with solid tumor cancers. Patients must have participated in the imaging study MNPR-101-D001 (actively recruiting, diagnostic study of MNPR-101-DFO*-89Zr).

  • TITE-BOIN will be used to objectively determine dose increase, no dose change, or dose decrease for each group of two patients.
  • The treatment period consists of two 12-week cycles. Patients will receive three equal fractions of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu with radioactivity ranging from 480-2240 MBq on each of Cycle 1 Day 1, Cycle 1 Day 15, and Cycle 2 Day 1 (12 weeks after Cycle 1 Day 1).
  • Patients will be followed for 12 weeks after their last dose of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu.
  • Patients will be imaged at specific timepoints during the study.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This Phase 1a study will enroll qualified participants from the MNPR-101-D001 imaging study. Patients will receive three equal doses of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu, dose-escalating in cohorts of two starting at Dose Level 1 (960 MBq).On Cycle 1 Day 1, Cycle 1 Day 15, and Cycle 2 Day 1, patients will receive a 20-minute intravenous infusion of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu consisting of an antibody with radioactivity ranging from 480-2240 MBq (Dose Levels 0-4).

This study employs a Time-to-Event Bayesian Optimal Interval Design (TITE-BOIN). Dosing of subsequent cohorts will escalate, stay, or de-escalate based on TITE-BOIN predetermined, fixed dose escalation / de-escalation rules.

Any hematologic event must be ≤ Grade 1 for dosing to occur, i.e., patients with an active ≥ Grade 2 hematologic event may not be dosed. Any patient experiencing a ≥ Grade 2 allergic reaction during or immediately following infusion will not receive further treatment. Patients experiencing a DLT, at least possibly related to MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu and occurring within 6 weeks of C1D1, will not receive any further doses. C1D15 and C2D1 doses may be delayed for up to 14 days for specified adverse events.

All subjects will undergo SPECT imaging on Cycle 1 Day 8 and Cycle 2 Day 8. CT scans will occur on Cycle 1 Day 43, Cycle 2 Day 1, and Cycle 2 Day 43; a baseline CT scan must be provided. These will allow for the assessment of tumor SUVs, as well as the radiologic response rate by RECIST 1.1.

Patients will be followed for safety for 12 weeks following the last dose of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy (other than short cycle of palliative radiotherapy), or immunotherapy within 14 days prior to administration of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu.
  2. Continuing ≥ Grade 3 adverse reactions from prior systemic therapy (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE] version 5.0).
  3. Prior treatment with any radiopharmaceutical or investigational agents within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to administration of the first dose of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu other than MNPR-101-DFO*-89Zr.
  4. Have evidence of impaired organ function at Screening and prior to dosing, particularly:

    • Bone marrow: i. Platelets ≤150×10^9/L. ii. Absolute neutrophil count ≤1.5×10^9/L. iii. Hemoglobin <9g/dL (no red blood cell transfusion in the previous 4 weeks).

    • Liver function: i. AST/ALT >3xULN (institutional upper limits of normal) OR >5×ULN for patients with liver metastases.

    ii. Bilirubin >1.5xULN OR >3xULN for patients with known Gilbert's Syndrome.

    • Renal function: i. eGFR ≤45 mL/min determined using BSA-adjusted Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration CKD-EPI 2021 formula [https://www.kidney.org/professionals/kdoqi/gfr_calculator].

  5. Safety event of significance in MNPR-101-D001 study:

    1. a related CTCAE Grade 4 hematologic or hepatologic event
    2. a related CTCAE Grade 3 hematologic or hepatologic event which lasted >30 days
  6. Unacceptable value for projected organ dose based upon dosimetry from the MNPR-101-D001 study that exceeds safe absorbed dose limits, as determined by Monopar.
  7. Other serious, non-malignant diseases (e.g., renal, hepatic, or hematologic) that may interfere with objectives of the study, safety, or compliance, as judged by the investigator.
  8. Cognitive impairment or contraindications that may compromise ability to give informed consent or comply with requirements of the study.

Time Frame: From dosing to the End of Study at 24 weeks
The safety profile of MNPR-101-PCTA-177Lu will be determined through assessment of adverse event (AE) type, incidence, severity, time of appearance, and related causes (detected by physical explorations and laboratory tests). Adverse events will be graded and tabulated using NCI CTCAE v5.0.
