About this study

Official title: Immuno-pet IMaging ResPonses AdministeRed Immune CheckpoiNt InhibiTor (IMPRINT)

This study investigates whether a single subcutaneous administration of anti-PD-1 antibody can induce CD8+ T-cell tumor-infiltration that can be non-invasively monitored with [89Zr]crefmirlimab berdoxam PET imaging as an imaging biomarker.

Read the detailed description

This is a two-armed open-label feasibility study with exploratory endpoints, where subjects are participating for 2 years after completement of enrollment to determine disease-free survival rates. The therapeutic intervention is a single subcutaneous administration of the humanized hinge region-stabilized IgG4 monoclonal anti-PD1 antibody PF-06801591 (sasanlimab) in a fixed dose of 300 mg in a neo-adjuvant setting, with or without radiation therapy, followed by curative-intended surgery. The diagnostic intervention is a radiolabeled imaging tracer [89Zr]Zr-crefmirlimab berdoxam that entails two intravenous administrations of a fixed dose of 1.5 mg protein dose labelled with activity dose 37 MBq Zirconium-89; one at baseline and one at 2 weeks after sasanlimab injection, to visualize CD8+ T-cells in vivo.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SasanlimabDrug

    Also called humanized hinge region-stabilized IgG4 monoclonal anti-PD1 antibody, PF-06801591

    6 mL of the study drug will be administered subcutaneous injection in the abdominal fat fold. If SC injections in the abdominal location are not possible, SC injections can be administered in a distributed manner in the thighs. SC injections in the upper extremities (eg, deltoid, upper and lower arm) are not permitted. Any observed abnormality at the injection site (e.g. erythema, induration, ecchymosis, injection site pain, injection site pruritus) will be monitored and judged by the investigator to determine whether a corresponding AE should be reported.

  • non-ablative radiotherapyRadiation

    Patients will receive a total dose of 24Gy irradiation to the tumor, fractionated in 3 doses of 8Gy, on three consecutive days and starting on the day of first sasanlimab administration.

  • [89Zr]Zr-crefmirlimab berdoxamDrug

    Prior to sasanlimab injection and prior to surgery, [89Zr]Zr-crefmirlimab berdoxam (1.5 mg protein dose labelled with activity dose 37 MBq Zirconium-89) will be administered via an intravenous catheter. After 21-27 hours after injection patient will undergo a whole-body PETscan te detect CD8+ T-cell infiltration.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with successful completion of curative surgery within 42 days after start of subcutaneous sasanlimab as neo-adjuvant treatment.

    Feasibility will be determined on all patients who have entered the treatment phase of the study, i.e. received at least one course of neo-adjuvant sasanlimab. Feasibility is defined as successful completion of curative surgery within 42 days after start of neo-adjuvant treatment (= day 1). No delays will be allowed. Results will be reported in a descriptive fashion, including percentages, mean and standard deviation, median and range for the time-related measures.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. The number of CTC grade ≥3 toxicity related to subcutaneous sasanlimab as neo-adjuvant treatment.

    Safety will be defined as the number of CTC grade ≥3 toxicity related to neo-adjuvant sasanlimab. Results will be reported in a descriptive fashion.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Detection of treatment induced immune related responses after subcutaneous sasanlimab as neo-adjuvant treatment.

    Efficacy will be defined as the detection of treatment induced immune related responses in >15% of the patients. Results will be reported in a descriptive fashion, for both cohorts of each n=10 patients (sasanlimab with and without radiotherapy).

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Demonstrate induction of CD8+ T-cells

    Determine changes from baseline in immune profiles, including maturation stages, activation markers, chemokine receptors and functional markers on different lymphocyte (sub-)populations assessed by multipanel flowcytometry on samples obtained at 3 weeks and expressed in percentages and absolute numbers per mL.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Framework for PETscan interpretation

    Determine the (changes in) relative distributions of tracer uptake (e.g., CD8+ T-cell distributions) across tumor, tumor-draining lymph node(s), spleen, bone marrow, blood pool and distant lymph nodes computed from [89Zr]Zr-crefmirlimab berdoxam PET images.

    Correlative analyses of CD8+ T-cell profiles will be done in peripheral blood at the time point of scanning and resected tumor sections.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Identify immune signatures

    The absolute number, mean and maximum density of CD8+ T-cells/mm^2 tumor tissue will be determined and correlated with conventional pathological response assessment and clinical endpoint of 1- and 2-year recurrence free survival.

    The absolute number, mean and maximum density of other immune cell (sub-)populations will be determined by multipanel immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence analyses on the resected tumor tissue and correlated to pathological and clinical response, as above.

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Explore pathological response rate

    The conventional pathological response assessment will be compared for both study arms and reported as absolute number and percentage of total subjects who received sasanlimab prior to surgery in that study arm.

    Comparative and descriptive analyses of immune cell signatures in peripheral blood, [89Zr]Zr-crefmirlimab berdoxam and resected tumor specimen with respect to both study arms will be performed to explore potential effect of radiotherapy on immune responses.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Sasanlimab, non-ablative radiotherapy and [89Zr]Zr-crefmirlimab berdoxam in people with NSCLC, run by Radboud University Medical Center at 2 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 6 inclusion and 9 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Germany, Netherlands. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Erik HJ Aarntzen, Dr. (+31629669360, Erik.Aarntzen@radboudumc.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with successful completion of curative surgery within 42 days after start of subcutaneous sasanlimab as neo-adjuvant treatment. (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 3 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 NCT06218069, which also lists 11 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 29 Nov 2024.
