Anti-tumour Activity of (177Lu) rhPSMA-10.1 Injection

An Open-label, Multicentre, Integrated Phase 1 & 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Radiation Dosimetry and Anti-tumour Activity of Lutetium (177Lu) rhPSMA-10.1 Injection in Men With Metastatic Castrate-resistant Prostate Cancer

About This Trial

  • This clinical trial is testing a new targeted radiation therapy to see how safe it is, find the best dose, and check how well it works against advanced prostate cancer.
  • It is for men whose cancer has spread to other parts of the body and is no longer responding to standard hormone-lowering treatments.
  • To be eligible, patients must undergo a special scan to confirm their tumors have a specific target protein, known as PSMA, which the drug uses to deliver radiation directly to the cancer cells.
  • Before considering the study, patients should know that they must have had a break from their previous cancer treatments, must have adequate organ health, and cannot have received certain types of radiation therapies in the past.

More Information

  • To determine the dose, safety, radiation dosimetry and efficacy of 177Lu-rhPSMA-10.1 in participants with PSMA-expressing metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer.

  • Age Range: 18 years and older
  • Gender: Male
  • Who This Trial is For: This clinical trial is testing a new targeted radiation therapy to see how safe it is, find the best dose, and check how well it works against advanced prostate cancer.

Full Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Male subjects, 18 years of age or older with histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate.
  • Serum testosterone levels <50 ng/dL (1.73 nmol/L) after surgical or continued chemical castration.
  • Presence of disease target or non target lesions (per RECIST v1.1) on CT/MRI and/or presence of disease on full body 99mTc bone scan performed within 28 days of screening.
  • Positive disease expression of PSMA as confirmed on PSMA PET/CT scan.
  • At least 4 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) elapsed between last anti-cancer treatment administration and the initiation of study treatment (except for Luteinising Hormone-releasing Hormone or GnRH).
  • Resolution of all previous treatment related toxicities to CTCAE version 5.0 grade of ≤1 (except for chemotherapy induced alopecia and grade 2 peripheral neuropathy or grade 2 urinary frequency which are allowed).
  • Prior major surgery must be at least 12 weeks prior to study entry.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2 with a life expectancy ≥6 months.
  • Adequate bone marrow reserve and organ function as demonstrated by blood count, and serum biochemistry at baseline.
  • Adequate contraception for patients and their partners.
  • For Phase 1 mCRPC only: Subjects who have experienced disease progression on or after at least 1 NAAD (e.g. abiraterone, enzalutamide) and at least 1 course (but no more than 2 courses) of taxane-based chemotherapy. For Phase 2 mCRPC only: Subjects who have experienced disease progression on or after at least 1 NAAD (e.g. abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide, darolutamide), but have not received previous taxane-based chemotherapy for the treatment of mCRPC.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Known hypersensitivity to the therapeutic or diagnostic IMP or any of its constituents.
  • Presence of significant PSMA-negative disease on ceCT/MRI scan
  • Diffuse marrow infiltration of disease ('superscan' appearance on full body 99mTc bone scan).
  • Symptomatic spinal cord compression, or clinical or radiological findings that are indicative of impending spinal cord compression.
  • Known history of haematological malignancy.
  • Known history of central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
  • Histological findings consistent with neuroendocrine phenotype of prostate cancer.
  • Known history of other solid malignancy that may reduce life expectancy and/or may interfere with disease assessment.
  • Unresolved urinary tract obstruction defined as radiographic evidence of hydronephrosis with or without ureteric stent/nephrostomy.
  • Any uncontrolled significant medical, psychiatric, or surgical condition or laboratory finding that would pose a risk to subject safety or interfere with study participation or interpretation of individual subject results.
  • Ongoing treatment with bisphosphonates for bone-targeted therapy.
  • Severe urinary incontinence that would preclude safe disposal of radioactive urine.
  • Single kidney or renal transplant or any concomitant nephrotoxic therapy that might put the subject at high risk of renal toxicity during the study in the judgement of the investigator.
  • Clinically significant abnormalities on a single 12 lead electrocardiogram (ECG) at screening.
  • Previously received external beam irradiation to a field that includes more than 30% of the bone marrow or kidneys.
  • Previous treatment with any of the following: PSMA targeted radionuclide therapy, Strontium-89, Samarium-153, Rhenium 186, Rhenium-188, Radium-223, hemi-body irradiation.
  • Subjects with bilateral hip replacements or any significant metallic implants or objects, that may affect image quality and/or dosimetry calculations.
  • Transfusion of blood products for the sole purpose of meeting the eligibility criteria for this clinical study.
  • Participation in other studies involving IMP(s) within 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to study entry and/or during study participation.
  • Any history of clinically significant parenchymal lung disease e.g. interstitial lung disease or bullous emphysema.
  • Any history of prior thoracic external beam radiotherapy.
  • Presence of abnormal PSMA PET uptake in the lung parenchyma above expected physiological levels, as determined by local assessment.
