Alpha Radiation Emitters Device (DaRT) in Combination With Check Point Inhibitor for the Treatment of Recurrent Unresectable or mHNSCC

Официальное название

A Safety and Efficacy Study of Intratumoral Diffusing Alpha Radiation Emitters in Recurrent Unresectable or Metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Обзор

A unique combinational treatment for cancer employing intratumoral diffusing alpha radiation emitter device with check point inhibitor for recurrent unresectable or metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Подробное описание

This will be a prospective, open-label, one arm, single center two-stage adaptive trial designed to stop for either futility or efficacy after the first stage.

This approach will combine Diffusing Alpha Radiation Emitters seeds implantation along with standard treatment of Pembrolizumab for patients with recurrent unresectable or metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (mHNSCC).

The DaRT seeds will be implanted in the target lesion and removed 15-22 days after implantation. Concurrently, patient will receive standard treatment of Pembrolizumab.

Disease evaluation will be assessed by a radiological imaging every 6 weeks starting at day 42 after the DaRT insertion procedure.

Вмешательства

• Устройство Diffusing Alpha Radiation Emitters Therapy (DaRT)
  An intratumoral insertion of a seed(s), loaded with Radium-224, securely fixed in the seeds. The seeds release by recoil into the tumor short-lived alpha-emitting atoms.
• Препарат Pembrolizumab
  200 mg administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes every 3 weeks

Первичные конечные точки

• Evaluation of Efficacy of DaRT Treatment in Combination with Pembrolizumab [Срок оценки: From Day 26 to date of documented best response, assessed up to 24 months]

Вторичные конечные точки (4)

• Adverse Events [Срок оценки: Until completion of the last study-related procedure, approximately 2 years]
• Progression Free Survival (PFS) [Срок оценки: From first dose of Pembrolizumab until progressive disease is recorded (up to 24 months)]
• Overall Survival (OS) [Срок оценки: From Pembrolizumab treatment start date to death or lost to follow-up (up to 24 months)]
• Duration of Response (DOR) [Срок оценки: From first record of response until the first date recurrent or progressive disease is documented (up to 24 months)]

• Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illnesses including, but not limited to an active infection requiring systemic therapy or a known psychiatric or substance abuse disorder(s) that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial or interfere with the study endpoints.
• Patient requires treatment which may conflict with the endpoints of this study including evaluation of response or toxicity of DaRT.
