About this study

Official title: 99mTc/68Ga Labeled Anti-PD-L1 sdAb in Assessment of Programmed Death Ligand-1 Expression in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

To evaluate the safety, dosimetry and efficacy of 99mTc/68Ga labeled anti-PD-L1 single domian antibody (sdAb) (Product Code Name: 99mTc-NM-01 and 68Ga-NM-01) in the diagnostic imaging PD-L1 expression in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and compare it with the existing gold standard "biopsy PD-L1 detection". It is also to establish a new clinical method of non-invasive PD-L1 expression detection in NSCLC using 99mTc/68Ga labeled anti-PD-L1 sdAb.

Being tested
Injection of 99mTc-NM-01, Injection of 68Ga-NM-01
Medical subject headings

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Injection of 99mTc-NM-01ExperimentalAll patients with NSCLC who have undergone biopsy of primary tumour lesion will be administered 3-12 MBq/kg of 99mTc-NM-01 in a single injection.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual Assessment of PD-L1 expression in NSCLC using 99mTc-NM-01 SPECT/CT and 68Ga-NM-01 PET/CT Scan

    Visual analysis will be carried out by 4 experienced nuclear medicine physicians to observe the uptake of 99mTc-NM-01 and 68Ga-NM-01 in lung lesions. A 4 point system will be used to interpret the scans for abnormalities. It is categorised as such: score 0, no abnormal increased uptake; score 1, low increased uptake; score 2, moderate increased uptake; score 3, high increased uptake. The lesion will be considered positive for malignancy if the score is 2 or higher.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Semiquantitative Assessment of Lung Lesions in 99mTc-NM-01 SPECT/CT and 68Ga-NM-01 PET Scan

    Patients in the 99mTc-NM-01 group will be administered 3-12 MBq/kg of 99mTc-NM-01 and patients in the 68Ga-NM-01 group will be administered 0.75-4 MBq/kg of 68Ga-NM-01. The semiquantitative analysis of the region of interest (ROI) will be performed in lung lesions. Higher level of PD-L1 expression (Tumor proportion score, TPS), higher ROI in tumor. No expression TPS < 1%; Low expression TPS 1 - 49%; High expression TPS ≥ 50%.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. PD-L1 expression levels

    Patients biopsy sample will be tested to confirm the levels of PD-L1 expression using Human PD-L1 ELISA Kit.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Adverse Drug Reaction Report

    Monitor adverse events within 7 days after the injection and scanning to establish the safety of 99mTc-NM-01 and 68Ga-NM-01 in patients.

    Measured: 7 days

  3. New tumor lesion detection

    99mTc-NM-01 SPECT/CT and 68Ga-NM-01 PET/CT may detect new tumor areas, which can be further proven by biopsy method in order to rule out any false positive results.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Injection of 99mTc-NM-01 and Injection of 68Ga-NM-01 in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 17 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

Visual Assessment of PD-L1 expression in NSCLC using 99mTc-NM-01 SPECT/CT and 68Ga-NM-01 PET/CT Scan (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT02978196, which also lists 7 linked publications.

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 17 May 2024.
