About this study
Official title: A Bioimaging Study of 89Zr-M7824 PET Scans in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC Receiving M7824 Alone or in Combination With Chemotherapy
This is a bioimaging study of 89Zr-M7824 PET scans in patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who will be receiving M7824 alone or with standard of care chemotherapy. M7824 is a bifunctional fusion protein that combines an anti-PD-L1 antibody and the extracellular domain of TGFβ receptor II (TGFβRII) as a TGFβ neutralizing 'trap', into a single molecule.
Read the detailed description
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown improved treatment outcome in patients with NSCLC; however, there is room to further improve benefits. A novel agent such as M7824, a fusion protein which targets the tumor microenvironment where it blocks both the cell intrinsic PD-L1/PD-1 interaction and the immunosuppressive TGFβ, is hypothesized to be more effective than agents that target only a single pathway.
This study aims to investigate functional imaging with 89Zr-M7824 to characterize the biodistribution of M7824 to support its clinical development. In Part A, we will evaluate the biodistribution of zirconium-89 (89Zr) labelled M7824 in a small cohort of lung cancer patients unselected for PD-L1 status (n=3). In particular, we will examine the ability of 89Zr-M7824 to detect and quantitate intra-tumoural PD-L1 expression and correlate this with PD-L1 assessment in archival tissue. Based on this, Part B will gather additional data about the biodistribution of 89Zr-M7824 in an additional 9 patients. The requirement for patients in Part B to have high levels of PD-L1 positive cells in tumours based on a fresh biopsy or archival tissue at study entry will be informed by the data generated in Part A. Safety will be formally assessed also as a secondary endpoint at the end of Part A of the study and addressed if necessary. After completion of 2 imaging cycles, patients who do not show complete response to M7824 monotherapy after 3 therapeutic doses of M7824 may be transitioned to M7824/chemotherapy combination

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Cohort A | Experimental | Patients (pts) will receive an initial trace (100 mg, IV) dose of zirconium-89 (1.8-2.5 mCi) labelled M7824 (89Zr-M7824) on day 1, sequential PET imaging over 1 week will be performed to determine the biodistribution 89Zr-M7824 into the tumour and normal tissues. All patients who remain on study after Day 14 will have a 1200 mg dose of M7824 q2w beginning on Cycle 1 Day 15. Pts will then receive a 2nd infusion of 100 mg of 89Zr-M7824 with cold M7824 making a total dose of 1200mg on Day 29. All patients will then receive a dose of cold 1200mg M7824 on Cycle 1 Day 43. Patients will continue to receive a therapeutic dose of 1200 mg q2w of M7824 until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who do not achieve a CR after 3 doses of M7824 in Cycle 1, may then commence treatment with concurrent chemotherapy with carboplatin and pemetrexed at conventional doses. Receives: Combination Product: 89Zirconium-M7824; Drug: M7824 |
| Cohort B | Experimental | Cohort A will determine whether or not high PD-L1 positive disease is required at study entry to Cohort B. All other assessments within cohort A will be undertaken. Receives: Combination Product: 89Zirconium-M7824; Drug: M7824 |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Biodistribution of 89Zr-M7824 in NSCLC patients
The biodistribution of 89Zr-M7824 will be evaluated by qualitative assessment of organ uptake and clearance from PET imaging following infusion of 89Zr-M7824. Patterns of expected normal tissue uptake due to blood pool activity, and PD-L1 expression, as well as catabolism of 89Zr-M7824, will be assessed.
Measured: Cycle 1 - 7 weeks
Secondary outcomes (2)
Number of participants with 89Zr-M7824 treatment-related adverse events as assessed using CTCAE v5.0.
Adverse responses of any grade following commencement of treatment will be recorded and quantified.
Measured: 0-12 months
Number of participants with M7824 or M7824 combined with chemotherapy treatment-related adverse events as assessed using CTCAE v5.0.
Adverse responses of any grade following commencement of treatment will be recorded and quantified.
Measured: 0-36 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing 89Zirconium-M7824 and M7824 in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute at 1 site in Australia.
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 7 inclusion and 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jan 2023. 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 Australia. 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 combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
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 was stopped early (reason given: Efficacy finding). Results are not available in the source record.
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?
Biodistribution of 89Zr-M7824 in NSCLC patients (time frame: Cycle 1 - 7 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 Jan 2023.
