68Ga-PSMA-R2 in Patients With Biochemical Relapse (BR) and Metastatic Prostate Cancer (mPCa)

Advanced Accelerator Applications30 enrolled

Overview

This was an open-label, multicenter, single dose, Phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single administration of 3 mega Becquerel (MBq)/kg, but not less than 150 MBq and not more than 250 MBq, of 68\^Ga-PSMA-R2 in adult male patients with biochemical relapse (BR) and metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa).

This study consisted of 2 parts. * During the first part (Phase I) of the study, 6 subjects with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer (PCa) received the investigational product (IP) and remained at the site for approximately 6 hours post-administration in order to assess the PK, biodistribution versus time, and dosimetry for critical organs. Subjects received a single dose of 3 MBq/kg, (\>=150 and =\<250 MBq), of 68\^Ga-PSMA-R2 intravenously. Serial blood and urine samples were collected for PK characterization and dosimetry and whole-body PET/CT were acquired at selected time points (0 to 4 hours) to determine organ and tumor absorbed doses. Safety assessments were conducted after IP administration on Day 1, and during follow-up on Days 7 and 28. * In the second part of the study (Phase II), 2 groups of 12 subjects were enrolled (subjects with PCa in biochemical recurrence \[PCa-BR\], and subjects with prostate cancer in the metastatic stage \[mPCa\]). Based on the preliminary data analysis from the Phase I part of the study provided sufficient dosimetry data, all subjects underwent the whole body PET/CT imaging optimized for time (up to 2 time points) according to the data analysis from the Phase I part of the study. This study was comprised of 4 clinical visits and conducted in 3 study periods: screening, administration/imaging, and safety follow-up period.

Eligibility

Sex: MALEMin age: 18 Years

Medical Language ↔ Plain English

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Males 18 years or older. 2. Signed and dated written informed consent by the subject prior to any study-specific procedures. 3. Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate, defined as follows: 1. Biochemical recurrence: defined as PSA is ≥0.2 ng/mL after radical prostatectomy or PSA nadir plus 2 ng/mL after radiation therapy with corresponding CT/MRI or bone scan revealing absence of local recurrence or metastatic lesions. OR 2. Metastatic disease: defined as both, castration-sensitive or castration-resistant mPCa (presence of at least 1 metastatic lymph node, visceral metastasis and/or bone metastasis). 3. At least 2 weeks must have elapsed between last anticancer treatment administration and the administration of the imaging product, 68Ga-PSMA-R2. 4. Prior major surgery must be at least 12 weeks prior to study entry. 5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 2, with a life expectancy ≥6 months. 6. Adequate bone marrow reserve and organ function as demonstrated by complete blood count, and biochemistry in blood and urine at Screening: 1. Hemoglobin (Hb): \>8 g/dL 2. Platelet count of \>50.000/mm3 7. Serum creatinine \<1.5\*upper limit normal (ULN) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \>50 mL/min based upon The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation. 8. For male subjects with partners of childbearing potential, agreement to use barrier contraceptive method (condom) and to continue its use for 28 days after IP administration. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Pathological finding consistent with small cell, neuroendocrine carcinoma of the prostate or any other histologies different than adenocarcinoma. 2. Administered a radioisotope =\<10 physical half-lives prior to the day of PET/CT. 3. Current severe urinary incontinence, hydronephrosis, severe voiding dysfunction, or need of indwelling/condom catheters. 4. Uncontrolled pain or incompatibility that results in subject's lack of compliance with imaging procedures. 5. Other known coexisting malignancies except non-melanoma skin or low grade superficial bladder cancer unless definitively treated and proven no evidence of recurrence for 5 years. 6. Subject with known incompatibility to CT scans. 7. Any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic or psychiatric diseases, including uncontrolled hypertension and active bleeding diatheses, which in the investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the study or which would jeopardize compliance with the protocol, or active infection including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and untreated hepatitis B, hepatitis C. Screening for chronic conditions was not required. 8. Subjects who have received any investigational agent within the last 28 days were excluded from participation in this study. 9. Any acute toxicity due to prior chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy that has not resolved according to the Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Studies. 10. Known allergy, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to the IP or its excipients. 11. Subject unlikely to comply with study procedures, restrictions and requirements and judged by the investigator to be unsuitable for study participation.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events

Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were collected from first dosing (single administration, Day 1) up to last follow-up visit or until the event has resolved to baseline grade or better or the event was assessed stable by the investigator or the patient was lost to follow-up or withdrew consent. The distribution of adverse events was done via the analysis of frequencies for treatment emergent Adverse Event (TEAEs), Serious Adverse Event (TESAEs) and Deaths due to AEs, through the monitoring of relevant clinical and laboratory safety parameters. Only descriptive analysis performed.

Time frame: dosing through 28 days post-dose

Secondary Outcomes

Phase I: Decay Corrected Tissue Time-activity Curves (TACs) From 68Ga-PSMA-R2 PET/CT Images in Normal Organs

PET/CT scans were performed at approximately 20 to 30 min and at 1, 2, 3 to 4 hours postinjection. Time activity curves (TACs) for various organs (Brain, Heart Wall, Kidney, Lacrimal Gland, Liver, Lungs, Salivary Gland, Spleen and Thyroid) were produced as decay-corrected tissue of injected activity (mSv/MBq) per organ. Only descriptive analysis performed.
