Authorised Therapeutic exploratory (Phase II) Gastro-esophageal cancer with HER2-expression (cohort 1). Breast cancer with low HER2-expression (‘HER2-low’) (cohort 2).

[68Ga]Ga-ABY-025 PET in solid tumors

EU CTIS ID: 2022-500448-39-00

What this study is testing

To evaluate the HER2 status in lesions (primary tumors and/or metastases) measured by [68Ga]Ga-ABY-025-uptake on PET/CT in patients with GEAC and HER2-low mBC (combined and individual cohorts respectively). The HER2 status defined by IHC-status and ISH-analyses will be used as a reference standard.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • 1. Age ≥18 years.
  • 2. The subject has given written consent to participate in the study.
  • 3. Patients with metastatic disease because of gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma, NSCLC or HER2-low breast cancer. Cohort 1: Histologically confirmed HER2-positive primary gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma, scheduled for palliative HER2-targeted therapy; Cohort 2: HER2-positive status in non-small cell lung cancer, scheduled for palliative HER2-targeted therapy; Cohort 3: HER2-low metastatic breast cancer first within a pilot study (of which five patients with de novo HER2-low mBC and five patients with pre-treated HER2-low mBC). Later, within a post-pilot study. For definition of HER2 status in each cohort see Supplement 16.b
  • 4. At least one metastatic lesion ≥ 10 mm is available for biopsy defined on CT.
  • 5. At least one (and up to five) additional metastatic index lesion/s ≥ 10 mm for evaluation of treatment effect
  • 6. WHO performance status ≤ 2.

You likely can't join if

  • 1. Significantly impaired renal function (GFR <30 ml/min/1.73 m2)
  • 2. Allergy to iodinated contrast media
  • 3. Subjects that for some reason are unable to exercise their rights, such as cognitive function impairment.
  • 4. Other manifest malignancy except for basal cell carcinoma of the skin.
  • 5. The patient presenting any contraindication for the use of HER2 targeted therapy for metastatic disease: congestive heart failure, baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than 50%, transmural myocardial infarction, uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure >180 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure >100 mm Hg), angina pectoris requiring medication, clinically significant valvular heart disease, high-risk arrhythmias, lack of physical integrity of the upper gastrointestinal tract or malabsorption syndrome, active gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • 6. Inadequate organ function, suggested by the following laboratory results: absolute neutrophil count <1,500 cells/mm3, haemoglobin <90 g/L, total bilirubin ≥1.5 x ULN (unless the patient has documented Gilbert’s syndrome), AST (SGOT) or ALT (SGPT) >5.0 x ULN.

  • 7. Positive pregnancy test in women of childbearing potential (premenopausal or <12 months of amenorrhea post-menopause and who have not undergone surgical sterilization) or lactation.
  • 8. Female patients of childbearing potential and sexually active and not willing to use a highly effective contraceptive. Examples of highly effective contraceptive methods with a failure rate of < 1% per year include bilateral tubal ligation, male sterilization, established, proper use of hormonal contraceptives that inhibit ovulation, hormone-releasing intrauterine devices (IUDs), and copper IUDs. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, or postovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. Women must refrain from donating eggs during this same period.
  • 9. Patients with increased risk of complications from biopsies, i.e. increased risk of bleeding, defined as - prothrombin time test (INR value) >1.4, platelet count <70 (109/l), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) >30s. - known bleeding disorder such as hemophilia, von Willebrand disease or platelet disorders. - any anticoagulants or antiplatelet treatment (except for low-dose ASA, i. e 75 mg daily).

Questions & answers

Do participants get paid in this trial?

This listing doesn't specify compensation. Many trials still reimburse travel or offer a stipend, so it's worth asking the study team when you connect.

Is it free to join, and do I need insurance?

Searching and applying through BridgeMD is free. In clinical trials the study-related treatment and visits are generally provided at no cost to you. You usually don't need insurance to take part - confirm specifics with the study team.

How long does this study last?

The listing doesn't state an exact length. The study team walks you through the schedule and number of visits before you decide to enroll.

Who can join this trial?

This study is enrolling all sexes, 65+ years, 18-64 years. The study team makes the final eligibility decision.
