Summary

In recent years, there is increasing interest in antibodies for imaging, antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) and targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT). With these techniques, antibodies are used as a vector to deliver a cytotoxic drug or radionuclide for therapy or nuclear medicine imaging. One such antibody-based vector suitable for delivering a cytotoxic drug or radionuclide is trastuzumab, which targets HER2 that is overexpressed in cancers such as breast, gastric and gastroesophageal junction carcinomas. Unfortunately, antibodies generally have a very long circulation time (\>20-30 days) that often result in unfavorable background noise in the healthy organs in imaging or toxicity when trastuzumab is bound to a therapeutic radionuclide for radioimmunotherapy. There is thus a need to increase the speed of excretion of antibodies or release the antibody from its payload. Ideally, the clinician would like to appropriately time the elimination of radioactivity to achieve an optimal tumor to non-tumor ratio. To this aim, Tagworks Pharmaceuticals developed a new class of chemically cleavable radiolabeled conjugates that release the radiolabel on demand upon reaction with a small molecule "the trigger" (TRG001).

Conditions

  • HER2 Positive Solid Tumor

Interventions

DRUG

[111In]In-DOTA-TCO-trastuzumab

\[111In\]In-DOTA-TCO-trastuzumab is a chemically cleavable \[111In\]In-labeled trastuzumab conjugate that is administered first to the patient, it accumulates in HER2-positive tumors and internalizes in HER2-expressing tumor cells.

DRUG

Small molecule tetrazine trigger component

TRG001 is a small molecule tetrazine trigger that reacts with \[111In\]In-TGW211-DC in blood and extracellular space thus releasing a fast clearing \[111In\]In-DOTA containing fragment which is rapidly eliminated via the kidney. Because of its non-cell permeable nature, TRG001 does not reach \[111In\]In-TGW211-DC inside tumor cells and therefore the radioactivity inside tumor cells is retained by the tumor.
