64Cu-GRIP B in Patients With Advanced Genitourinary Malignancies
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a first-in-human phase I/II imaging study of 64Cu-GRIP B PET in patients with advanced genitourinary (GU) malignancies. The tracer is designed to detect extracellular granzyme B as it is secreted by activated immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, which may highlight tumors that will regress on treatment with immunomodulatory therapies. The study population is focused on genitourinary malignancies, including renal cell and urothelial cancer, two tumor types with high mutational burden and tumor infiltrating lymphocytes compared to other tumor types, and have a predictable response rate at the population level to immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
-
Cohort A: To determine safety, dosimetry, and pharmacokinetics of 64Cu-GRIP B PET in patients with metastatic GU malignancy (renal, urothelial, or prostate)
-
Cohort B and C: To determine the mean percent change in both tumor maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), and ratio of SUVmax/blood standardized uptake value average (SUVave) on 64Cu-GRIP B PET in patients with participants with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and urothelial carcinoma (UC) (Cohort B) or metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) (Cohort C).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
-
To determine the safety and average organ dosimetry of 64Cu-GRIP B PET in patients with participants with metastatic RCC and UC (Cohort B) or mCRPC (Cohort C).
-
To descriptively report the patterns of intra-tumoral uptake of 64Cu-GRIP B on whole body PET, including by site of disease, uptake by tumor type, inter-tumoral and inter-patient heterogeneity, and tumor-to-background signal at baseline and at the time of progression (Cohorts B and C) in participants with metastatic RCC and UC (Cohort B) or mCRPC (Cohort C).
-
To descriptively report Grade >= 2 immune-related adverse event(s) in patients with metastatic RCC and UC (Cohort B) who have 64Cu-GRIP B PET performed within 14 days of onset of event.
-
To descriptively report the number of lesions identified on 64Cu-GRIP B PET compared with conventional imaging in patients with metastatic RCC and UC (Cohort B) or mCRPC (Cohort C).
-
To determine whether baseline uptake on 64Cu-GRIP B PET is associated with subsequent clinical outcomes, including objective response, progression-free survival, response defined as decrease > 50% from baseline (PSA50), and immune-related adverse events (irAE) in participants with metastatic RCC and UC (Cohort B) or mCRPC (Cohort C).
OUTLINE:
A total of 6 participants will be enrolled in Cohort A, initially. Successful completion of the feasibility portion of the study (Cohort A) will provide the necessary preliminary data to support subsequent enrollment in Cohorts B and C. All participants will receive 64Cu-GRIP B PET at baseline. For participants in Cohorts B & C, another PET scan will be performed 8 weeks following initiation of checkpoint inhibitor treatment, and at disease progression. Participants will be followed for up to 2 years for longitudinal endpoints.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (Cohort A) [Up to 8 weeks]
For Cohort A, the frequency and severity of adverse events following 64Cu-GRIP B injection will be descriptively reported, using NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0
- Percent of injected activity (Cohort A) [Up to 8 weeks]
For Cohort A, the tracer kinetics is measured in the organs and total-body, and the % of injected activity for each time point will be recorded for participants in Cohort A. This information is used as input for organ and whole-body effective dose calculation using Organ Level INternal Dose Assessment/EXponential Modeling (OLINDA/EXM). This will provide the data of whole-body effective dose (millisievert (mSv)/megabecquerels (MBq)), and organ doses.
- Time to maximum observed concentration (Tmax) (Cohort A) [Up to 8 weeks]
Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters for participants in Cohort A derived from plasma will be calculated using a non-compartmental approach with a log-linear terminal assumption for up to a possible 5 time points. A custom software package or a commercial software package like Phoenix WinNonlin will be used to compute the time it takes for a drug to reach the maximum concentration (Cmax) after administration of a drug that needs to be absorbed.
- Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) (Cohort A) [Up to 8 weeks]
PK parameters for participants in Cohort A derived from plasma will be calculated using a non-compartmental approach with a log-linear terminal assumption for up to a possible 5 time points.

A custom software package or a commercial software package like Phoenix WinNonlin will be used to compute the volume of plasma which is completely cleared of a substance per minute (mL/min).
- Apparent terminal elimination rate constant (Cohort A) [Up to 8 weeks]
PK parameters for participants in Cohort A derived from plasma will be calculated using a non-compartmental approach with a log-linear terminal assumption for up to a possible 5 time points.

For Cohort B and C, the frequency and severity of adverse events following 64Cu-GRIP B injection will be descriptively reported
- Mean SUVmax in metastatic lesions by disease site [Up to 8 weeks]
The mead/sd (median and range, if normality assumption does not hold) for intra-tumoral SUVmax within metastatic lesions will be descriptively reported, to assess for intra-tumoral heterogeneity and differences in uptake by site of disease
- Percent of lesions detected for metastatic participants [Up to 8 weeks]
The percentage of metastatic lesions detected on conventional imaging that are also detected on baseline 64Cu-GRIP B PET will be descriptively reported

- Association of baseline uptake with object response (ORR) [Up to 2 years]
For Cohort B and C, to analyze the association between the baseline in SUVmax and with subsequent response by RECIST 1.1 for Cohort B and modified RECIST 1.1/PCWG3 criteria, metastatic lesions will be segregated based on objective response by RECIST 1.1 criteria on follow up conventional imaging.
- Association of baseline uptake with progression-free survival (PFS) [Up to 2 years]
To assess the association between the baseline SUVmax with progression-free survival, defined as the time from date of initiation of checkpoint inhibition to subsequent progression by Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 3 (PCWG3)/RECIST criteria, the patient cohort will be dichotomized above and below the median PFS,
- Association of baseline uptake with reported PSA50 response [Up to 2 years]
To assess the association between the baseline in SUVmax with the patient cohort will be dichotomized into PSA50 vs. non-PSA50 reporters using linear mixed models
