About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine if the study drug, patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd), can be measured in brain tumor tissue after recieving one dose of patritumab deruxtecan before surgery.

Read the detailed description

This peri-operative window of opportunity study in patients with brain metastases will provide a single dose of the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd, formerly U3-1402) prior to craniotomy to investigate pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, intra- and peritumoral immune activation and responses, safety and explore potential biomarkers. This study will measure the level of the released payload DXd (MAAA-1181a) of patritumab deruxtecan, in resected brain metastasis (BrM) tissue.

Patients will receive a single dose of patritumab deruxtecan intravenously before surgery. Patients will also have procedures such as medical history review, blood draws, MRI scans, ECGs, and lumbar punctures. The amount of time patients are expected to be in this study is approximately 40 days.

Some of the risks of patritumab deruxtecan are diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, headache, interstitial lung disease, and low blood counts.

All participants who are administered patritumab deruxtecan as part of this peri-operative window of opportunity study will be included in analyses summarizing adverse events.

Study groups in NCT05620914
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patritumab deruxtecanExperimental15 participants with surgically-resectable brain metastases from multiple solid tumor primary histologies known to express HER3 will be treated. Patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd) will be administered IV 5.6 mg/kg as a single dose 1-3 days prior to planned craniotomy and resection of BrM. Participants will undergo specimen collection prior to and during the planned craniotomy, including tumor, blood, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
Receives: Drug: Patritumab deruxtecan

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine the concentration of DXd in brain metastasis tumor tissue after one dose of the HER3-targeted ADC patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd) administered via IV 1-3 days prior to craniotomy.

    The mean concentration of the DXd payload from patritumab deruxtecan will be computed. In addition, the distribution of the concentration will be examined

    Measured: 3 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Characterize the pharmacokinetics of ADC in serum, including ADC concentration and DXd concentration, collected at screening, pre-infusion, post-infusion, 4 hours post-infusion, 24 hours after patritumab deruxtecan administration, and at craniotomy.

    Changes between screening and each follow-up assessment in pharmacokinetics measures will be computed. All patients who have at least one post-infusion serum sample will be included in these analyses.

    Measured: 3 days

  2. Assess the evidence of tumor cell death via histopathological examination and measurement of γH2AX levels in tumor tissue.

    Among those patients who have an evaluable Brain Met tissue, the level of γH2AX in the resected BrM tissue will be described with means, standard deviations, and other statistics if needed.

    Measured: 3 days

  3. Assess the safety of patritumab deruxtecan in patients with brain metastasis after the single dose and up to 40+7 days.

    The proportion of patients who experience each type of adverse event will be tabulated by the maximum grade experienced. The first summary will reflect all adverse events; whereas the second summary will reflect only adverse events that are possibly, probably, or definitely related to treatment with patritumab dereuxtecan.

    Measured: 40 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Patritumab deruxtecan in people with Brain Metastases, Adult, run by Mustafa Khasraw, MBChB, MD, FRCP, FRACP at 1 site in United States.

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 40 inclusion and 42 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2025. 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 United States. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Determine the concentration of DXd in brain metastasis tumor tissue after one dose of the HER3-targeted ADC patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd) administered via IV 1-3 days prior to craniotomy. (time frame: 3 days). 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 15 Jun 2025.
