Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of increasing doses of \[177Lu\]Lu-AKIR001, both in relation to tolerable activity of lutetium-177 and the absorbed protein mass dose of AKIR-001 in patients with irresectable or metastatic CD44v6-expressing solid malignancies for whom no reasonable systemic treatment options are be available. The main question it aims to answer is:

• What is the toxicity profile of the study drug \[177Lu\]Lu-AKIR001 according to the rate of Dose Limiting Toxicities and (Severe) Adverse Events? Participants will receive one \[177Lu\]Lu-AKIR001 infusion followed by a 6-week safety follow-up period, which can be extended up to 12 weeks. Possible additional infusions of the trial drug, up to a maximum number of four, can be given when clinical benefit is noted and toxicity is deemed acceptable.

Conditions

  • Thyroid Gland Anaplastic Carcinoma
  • Poorly Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
  • Cancer Head and Neck
  • Cervix Carcinoma
  • Vulvar Cancer, Stage IV
  • Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage IV

Interventions

DRUG

[177Lu]Lu-AKIR001

Patient cohorts of a minimum of three and a maximum of 12 evaluable participants will be opened according to the decision tree defined in the protocol and will be consecutively completed. When one cohort has been completed and fully evaluated, the next cohort will be opened after all participants in the previous cohort have received at least one dose of the IMP without dose-limiting toxicities during a follow-up period of at least six weeks. The \[177Lu\]Lu-AKIR001 protein mass dose and activity are predefined for each cohort, and could be adjusted according to the results of previous cohort(s) to ensure the safety of participants. The initial design of the trial encompasses five cohorts to escalate both \[177Lu\]Lu-AKIR001 pmd, from 50 mg to 100 mg, and activity, from 0.75 to 3.0 GBq.
