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

Overview

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.

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.

Interventions

• Drug Sasanlimab
  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 investigat
• Radiation non-ablative radiotherapy
  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.
• Drug [89Zr]Zr-crefmirlimab berdoxam
  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.

Primary outcome measures

• 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 number of CTC grade ≥3 toxicity related to subcutaneous sasanlimab as neo-adjuvant treatment. [Time frame: 2 years]
• Detection of treatment induced immune related responses after subcutaneous sasanlimab as neo-adjuvant treatment. [Time frame: 2 years]

Secondary outcome measures (4)

• Demonstrate induction of CD8+ T-cells [Time frame: 2 years]
• Framework for PETscan interpretation [Time frame: 2 years]
• Identify immune signatures [Time frame: 2 years]
• Explore pathological response rate [Time frame: 2 years]
