About this study

Official title: A Prospective Non-randomized Study of 131I-L19SIP Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) in Combination With Whole Brain Radiation Therapy (WBRT) in Patients With Multiple Brain Metastases From Solid Tumors

The aim of this Proof of Concept study is to determine the therapeutic potential of the L19SIP antibody, labeled with the radionuclide 131I in combination with external beam radiation, for the treatment of patients with multiple brain metastases following the promising results with this agent in previous clinical studies.

The L19SIP antibody is a fully human antibody, capable of preferential localization around tumor blood vessels while sparing normal tissues. The formation of new blood vessels is a rare event in the adult (exception made for the female reproductive cycle), but is a pathological feature in most aggressive types of cancer. The presented study follows a Phase I and a subsequent Phase I/II dose finding and efficacy study with the same agent in patients with a variety of cancers where 131I-L19SIP had shown an excellent tolerability and therapeutic benefit for some patients enrolled in the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Uptake of 131I-L19SIP or 124I-L19SIP

    Selective uptake of 131I-L19SIP or 124I-L19SIP in brain lesions

    Measured: 2 days

  2. Safety of combined administration of 131I-L19SIP and whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT)

    Safety will be assessed through physical examinations, vital signs, laboratory tests (including serum chemistries, hematology parameters) and the recording of adverse events. Treatment emergent adverse events will be summarized by CTCAE version 3 (and if possible by the RTOG/EORTG scale) and worse grade for all treated patients. Laboratory values and change in vital signs will be summarized.

    Measured: 13 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall response

    Intracranial, extra cranial and overall response

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Overall survival

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Clinical performance index in terms of Graded Prognostic Assessment (GPA)

    GPA score will be assessed at the screening visit, during treatment and follow-up.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 131I-L19SIP Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) in Combination With Whole Brain Radiation Therapy (WBRT) in people with Brain Metastases From Solid Tumors, run by Philogen S.p.A. at 10 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 17 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Italy, United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Uptake of 131I-L19SIP or 124I-L19SIP (time frame: 2 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01125085, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Feb 2014.
