• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2025-01-17
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This is a Phase 1/2 multi-center, open label, dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate safety, tolerability, dosimetry, pharmacodynamics (PD), and efficacy of the targeted radionuclide therapeutic CAM-H2 in patients with progressive, advanced/metastatic HER2-positive breast, gastric, and GEJ cancer with disease progression following anti-HER2 standard of care treatment. The study duration for each phase will be up to 18 months. The study is comprised of a Treatment Period, consisting of a maximum of 2 cycles (12 weeks per cycle) of study drug, and a 12-month Long-Term Follow-Up Period.

• Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Informed consent form signed voluntarily before any study-related procedure is performed, indicating that the patient understands the purpose of, and procedures required for, the study and is willing to participate in the study;

2. Males and females ≥ 18 years of age at screening;

3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) of 0 to 1;

4. HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer refractory to standard cancer treatment or HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic gastric or GEJ cancer, refractory to standard cancer treatment.

5. Patients should have a minimum of 1 measurable lesion as defined by RECIST version 1.1 within 4 weeks of the first dose of the study drug (Day 1). The lesion has to be a new lesion or progression of an existing lesion under the current therapy;

6. Patients with known brain metastases should have a minimum of 1 measurable lesion on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as defined by RANO-BM within 4 weeks of the first dose of the study drug (Day 1). The lesion has to be a new lesion or progression of an existing lesion under the current therapy;

7. Any previous anti-HER2 treatment for advanced or metastatic disease is allowed. Patients with breast cancer should have had at least 2 previous systemic anticancer treatments for recurrent, locally advanced or metastatic cancer. Patients with gastric cancer or GEJ cancer should have had at least 1 previous anti-HER2 treatment;

8. Life expectancy > 6 months;

9. Adequate organ function, determined by the following laboratory tests:

• Adequate kidney function with an estimated creatinine clearance of >60 mL/min (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration formula);

• Adequate hepatic function defined as an alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) <2.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN), or <5 x ULN in patients with liver metastases, and total bilirubin <2 x ULN;

• Neutrophil count >1500 cells/mm3 without growth factor support (14 days after last PEGylated granulocyte colony stimulating factor or 7 days after regular granulocyte colony stimulating factor);

• Platelet count >100,000 cells/mm3 without platelet transfusion in the last 2 weeks;

• Hemoglobin >9.0 g/dL without blood transfusion in the last 2 weeks; and

• Adequate coagulation defined as an international normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.5 and activated partial thromboplastin time <1.5 x the upper limit of the institutional normal range;

10. Baseline left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 50% as measured by echocardiography or multigated acquisition scan.

11. Absence of any psychological, family, sociological, or geographical circumstance that could potentially represent an obstacle to compliance with the study protocol and the follow-up schedule, as determined by the Investigator. These circumstances will be discussed with the patient before enrollment in the study; and

12. Female patients of childbearing potential (ie, ovulating, premenopausal, and not surgically sterile) must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to study drug administration. Patients and their partners of childbearing potential must be willing to use 2 methods of contraception, 1 of which must be a barrier method, for the duration of the study and until 6 months after study drug administration. Medically acceptable barrier methods include condom with spermicide or diaphragm with spermicide. Medically acceptable non-barrier contraceptive methods include intrauterine devices or hormonal contraceptives (oral, implant, injection, ring, or patch).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Presence of frank leptomeningeal disease as a unique central nervous system feature or in association with brain parenchymal measurable lesion(s);

2. Symptomatic brain metastases; Note: Patients with asymptomatic treated and untreated brain metastases are eligible.

3. Previous local therapy for brain metastases, such as neurosurgery, stereotactic radiotherapy, or whole brain radiotherapy, administered within 6 weeks prior to administration of CAM-H2; Note: Previous therapy for brain metastases administered at least 6 weeks prior to CAM-H2 administration will be allowed.

4. For patients with brain metastases, any increase in corticosteroid dose during 4 weeks prior to the first administration of CAM-H2.

Note: Corticosteroid treatment in a stable dose or decreasing dose for at least 4 weeks prior to the first administration of CAM-H2 is allowed.

5. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection requiring parenteral antibiotics or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements;

6. Uncontrolled thyroid disease, defined as free triiodothyronine (T3) and free thyroxine (T4) > 3 x ULN at screening;

7. Uncontrolled diabetes defined as a fasting serum glucose > 2 x ULN or glycated hemoglobin levels > 8.5% at screening;

8. Gastrointestinal (GI) tract disease resulting in an inability to take oral medication, malabsorption syndrome, a requirement for intravenous (IV) alimentation, prior surgical procedures affecting absorption, or uncontrolled inflammatory GI disease (eg, Crohn's, ulcerative colitis);

9. Current active hepatic or biliary disease (exception of patients with Gilbert's syndrome, asymptomatic gallstones, liver metastases, or stable chronic liver disease per Investigator assessment);

• Symptomatic congestive heart failure of New York Heart Association Class III or IV;
