Brief summary

Increased fibroblast activation protein expression is positively correlated with the aggressiveness of cancer. Radiolabeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor therapy, also known as radioligand therapy has become a novel treatment for patients with refractory cancer and disease progression after multiple-lines treatment. However, a major problem in the therapeutic use of 177Lu-DOTA-FAPI has been its short half-life and fast rate of clearance. This study was designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of 177Lu-DOTA-EB-FAPI in patients with various solid tumors who had failed standard therapies.

Detailed description

This investigator-initiated phase II study will include a maximum of 30 subjects with progressive cancer after multiple-line treatment, with an increased radiotracer uptake in tumors on 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT. The fixed dose of 177Lu-DOTA-EB-FAPI is 3.3GBq (90 mCi) per cycle. Treatment is planned for up to 4 cycles, and the time interval between cycles is 6 weeks. The primary endpoint assessed the radiological response (according to RECIST criteria) after completion of radioligand therapy. The secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), dosimetry, and safety of 177Lu-DOTA-EB-FAPI.

Inclusion criteria

* Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document. * Age 18 and older. * Confirmed unresectable or metastatic refractory cancer with measurable disease per RECIST (version 1.1) (i.e. at least 1 lesion \> 1 cm or lymph node \> 1.5 cm in short axis). * Progressive disease after multiple-lines treatment. * Completion of entry into 68Ga-FAPI-46 study and completion of scan. The tumor lesions showing increased radiotracer uptake on 68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT (defined as a maximum standardized uptake value ≥10 in more than 50% of metastatic lesions). * Able to remain motionless for up to 30-60 minutes per scan.

Exclusion criteria

* Serum creatinine level \>150 μmol/L. * Hemoglobin level \<8.0 g/dL; white-cell count \< 2.0×109/L; platelet count \< 50×109/L; total bilirubin level \>3 times the upper limit of the normal range and serum albumin level \<2.0 g/dL. * Participants with Class 3 or 4 NYHA Congestive Heart Failure. * Participants with severe allergy, or hypersensitivity to radiographic contrast material. * Participants with claustrophobia. * Pregnant or lactating women.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Radiological response (according to RECIST criteria)6 weeks, 12 weeks, 18 weeks, or up to 6 monthsRECIST objective response after completion of radioligand therapy, which was defined by response category between baseline and restaging after RLT. Disease control after RLT was defined as either complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD). Disease control rate (DCR) was reported as the proportion of patients with disease control after RLT.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS)disease progression, death or last follow-up conducted for all patients at the end of August 2024.PFS was recorded from start of RLT until RECIST progression, death, or last follow-up. OS was recorded from start of RLT until death or last follow-up conducted for all patients at the end of August 2024.
Dosimetry6 weeksDosimetry, measured as the absorbed dose in tumors (Gy/GBq), was estimated in the first treatment cycle for each patient.
