A Safety Study of 212Pb-VMT-alpha-NET in Patients With Neuroendocrine Tumors

Study Purpose

This is a safety study to determine the recommended dose to test in clinical trials. The study involves two treatments with 212Pb (212-lead) VMT-α-NET. This is a safety study only; it will most likely not provide therapeutic benefit.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT06148636
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This research study is designed to explore if a new radiotherapeutic (radioactive) drug, named 212Pb (212-lead) VMT-α-NET, works against neuroendocrine tumor cells. To begin researching this drug, we need to determine if [212Pb] VMT-α-NET is safe and tolerable when used as a cancer treatment. As a safety study, it is unknown if the treatment is safe or effective. The study will also estimate the radiation dose to the kidneys for this treatment. To calculate this radiation dose, imaging is also performed with the sister drug, [203Pb] VMT-α-NET using SPECT/CT imaging. Each participant is assigned a radiation dose to the kidneys that cannot be exceeded. The study is testing the safety of the specific radiation dose to the kidneys when using [212Pb] VMT-α-NET. Participants are assigned a radiation dose based on how other participants have tolerated the [212Pb] VMT-α-NET. The amount of [212Pb] VMT-α-NET administered varies person-to-person because of each person's unique tumor uptake of [203Pb] VMT-α-NET and how long it lasts in the body. The study involves 2 treatments, about 8 to 10 weeks apart. The drug is given by infusion once per treatment. The participants also receive an infusion of amino acids to help protect the kidneys as well as medications to help protect against nausea (feeling sick to the stomach). Once a participant is administered the [212Pb] VMT-α-NET, they must be followed (i.e. come back to the clinic) for at least 6 months for safety assessments. Safety assessments include blood tests to check bone marrow, kidney, and liver function as well as urinary tests to check kidney function. Participants will also have imaging at 6 months post-treatment to measure how their tumors responded to therapy. Participants will have lifelong follow-up for this study.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: -1 Dose Level

This dose level is used if the starting dose level is deemed to have unacceptable toxicity. Participants are prescribed [212Pb] VMT-α-NET with the total radiation dose to kidneys not to exceed 200 cGy.

Experimental: Cohort 1

This is the starting dose level for participants. Participants are prescribed [212Pb] VMT-α-NET with the total radiation dose to kidneys not to exceed 350 cGy.

Experimental: Cohort 2

If the participants from Cohort 1 tolerate therapy, new participants are enrolled and are prescribed [212Pb] VMT-α-NET with the total radiation dose to kidneys not to exceed 600 cGy.

Experimental: Cohort 3

If the participants from Cohort 2 tolerate therapy, new participants are enrolled and are prescribed [212Pb] VMT-α-NET with the total radiation dose to kidneys not to exceed 810 cGy.

Experimental: Cohort 4

If the participants from Cohort 3 tolerate therapy, new participants are enrolled and are prescribed [212Pb] VMT-α-NET with the total radiation dose to kidneys not to exceed 1050 cGy.

Interventions

Drug: - [212Pb] VMT-α-NET

Up to 2 infusions with [212Pb] VMT-α-NET, each infusion separated by at least 8 weeks. During each infusion, the participants also receive an infusion with lysine and arginine (amino acids) to help reduce kidney damage.

Diagnostic Test: - [203Pb] VMT-α-NET SPECT/CT

The [203Pb] VMT-α-NET SPECT/CT is performed for all participants to determine trial eligibility as well as for the calculations to determine the estimated radiation dose to kidneys. This involves three imaging sessions of about 2 hours each over 2 days. The participants also receive an infusion with lysine and arginine (amino acids) to help reduce kidney damage at the time they receive the injection of . [203Pb] VMT-α-NET, a radioactive tracer drug.
