[0002] METHOD OF TREATING CANCER

[0003] CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0004] This application claims priority to European Patent Application No. 24220000.4, filed on December 13, 2024, and European Patent Application No. 25179053.1 , filed on May 27, 2025, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0005] BACKGROUND

[0006] Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms that arise from the neuroendocrine cells of the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. The incidence and prevalence of GEP-NETs have been rising, primarily due to improvements in diagnostic techniques and increased awareness. While the prognosis for localized NETs has improved, patients with distant metastasis and high tumor burden continue to face poor outcomes.

[0007] For patients with inoperable NET, the primary goals of treatment are to extend survival, enhance and sustain quality of life (QoL), control tumor growth, and control secretory symptoms if the tumor is functional. Somatostatin analogs (SSAs) such as octreotide long-acting 30 mg (Sandostatin® LAR®) or lanreotide ATG 120 mg (lanreotide ATG, SOMATULINE® DEPOT or SOMATULINE® AUTOGEL®) have become the mainstay of treatment in patients with low- or intermediate-grade GEP-NET.

[0008] Despite the effectiveness of SSAs, there remains a significant unmet need for more effective treatments especially for patients with high disease burden and / or in patients with symptomatic tumors as they may experience a more rapid disease progression.

[0017] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] FIG. 1 is a schematic showing the phases of the clinical trial described in Example 5. FIG. 2 is a schematic of the clinical trial efficacy assessment described in Example 5.

[0019] DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are rare malignant neoplasms that can arise throughout the body, and account for approximately 1% of all human tumors. Gastroenteropancreatic NET (GEP-NETs) are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms that arise from the neuroendocrine cells of the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. Their incidence and prevalence continue to rise mainly due to improvement in diagnostic techniques and awareness. The World Health Organization staging system classifies GEP-NET based on primary tumor localization, size, mitotic activity, invasiveness, and functional status. Based on the recent World Health Organization classification, GEP-NETs are categorized by tumor differentiation status and tumor grade (Rindi, G. et al. (2022) Endocr Pathol 33(1 ): 115-154). Tumor differentiation refers to the resemblance of the tumor histology to its normal counterparts, whereas tumor grade describes the proliferative activity of the tumor, as measured by mitotic rate or Ki-67 proliferative index.

[0021] Histologic differentiation and proliferative activity are the strongest predictors of survival. In terms of site of origin, the majority (50-70%) of NETs diagnosed in Western countries are gastrointestinal NETs (Modlin, I. et al. (2003) Cancer 97(4) :934-959).

[0022] For patients with inoperable NET, the primary goals of treatment are to extend survival, enhance and sustain quality of life (QoL), control tumor growth, and control secretory symptoms if the tumor is functional. Somatostatin analogs (SSAs) such as octreotide long-acting 30 mg (Sandostatin® LAR®) or lanreotide ATG 120 mg (lanreotide ATG, SOMATULINE® DEPOT or SOMATULINE® AUTOGEL®) have become the mainstay of treatment in patients with low- or intermediate-grade GEP-NET. 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0023] A PROMI D study revealed that 42 patients with metastatic midgut NET who were treated with octreotide long-acting (LAR) 30 mg / month experienced over double the time to tumor progression compared to 43 patients given a placebo (14.3 vs. 6.0 months; P=0.000072). Additionally, 67% of octreotide-treated patients achieved stable disease versus 37% in the placebo group (Rinke, A. et al. (2009) J Clin Oncol 27(28):4656-4663). In a CLARINET study, patients with Grade 1-2 midgut and pancreatic NET treated with lanreotide 120 mg / month showed significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) compared to placebo (median PFS not reached vs. 18.0 months; P<0.001 ; HR for progression or death with lanreotide vs. placebo, 0.47; 95% Cl 0.30 to 0.73) (Caplin, M. et al. (2014) N Engl J Med 371(2):224-233).

[0024] According to the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS), the North American Neuroendocrine Society (NANETS) and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), somatostatin analogues are commonly used as the initial treatment for patients with unresectable, asymptomatic, well-differentiated pancreatic NET (pNETs) and a high tumor burden (Kos-Kudla, B. et al. (2023) J Neuroendocrinol 35(12):e13343; Hofland, J. et al. (2023) J Neuroendocrinol 35(8):e13318; Kunz, P. et al. (2013) Pancreas 42(4):557- 577; NCCN Guidelines (2024) NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology: Neuroendocrine and Adrenal Tumors Version 2.2024, Accessed on September 05, 2024). A combination of capecitabine and temozolomide (CAPTEM) is often used in patients with well-differentiated pNET, who are highly symptomatic from tumor bulk or who have rapidly enlarging metastases, but there is no robust evidence to support the use of chemotherapy in patients with NETs of other origin (Pavel, M. et al. (2012) Neuroendocrinology 95(2):157- 176; Kunz, P. et al. (2023) J Clin Oncol 41 (7): 1359-1369).

[0025] [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE has shown significant efficacy in treating GEP-NET patients, particularly those with advanced disease. The Phase III NETTER-1 study demonstrated that [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with progressive, well-differentiated [Grade 1 and Grade 2], somatostatin receptor-positive (SSTR+) midgut NETs (Strosberg, J. et al. (2017) Neuroendocrine Tumors 376(2): 125-135). The Phase III NETTER-2 study further supported these findings, showing positive results in advanced, well-differentiated Grade 2 and Grade 3 (Ki-67: 10-55%) SSTR+ GEP-NETs (Singh, S. et al. (2024) Lancet 403(10446):2807-2817). Both studies demonstrated a similar and favorable safety profile.

[0026] DEFINITIONS

[0027] Before the present disclosure is described, it is to be understood that this disclosure is not limited to particular methods and experimental conditions described, as such methods and conditions may vary. It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for 768795: NIT-59885PC the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to be limiting, since the scope of the present disclosure will be limited only by the appended claims.

[0028] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice of the present disclosure, exemplary methods and materials are now described. All publications mentioned herein are incorporated herein by reference to describe in their entirety.

[0029] “A,” “an,” or “a(n)” are indefinite articles and, unless expressly stated otherwise, are intended to include one or more of the referenced element, component, or group. These terms when used in reference to a group of substituents or “substituent group” herein, mean at least one. “About” when referring to a value includes the stated value + / - 10% of the stated value. For example, about 50% includes a range from 45% to 55%, while about 20 molar equivalents includes a range of from 18 to 22 molar equivalents. Accordingly, when referring to a range, “about” refers to each of the stated values + / - 10% of the stated value of each end of the range. For instance, a ratio of from about 1 to about 3 (weight / weight) includes a range of from 0.9 to 3.3.

[0030] As used herein, the term “individual,” "subject," or "patient," used interchangeably, refers to any animal, including mammals, preferably mice, rats, other rodents, rabbits, dogs, cats, swine, cattle, sheep, horses, or primates, and most preferably humans. Typically, the subject is a human, and preferably is a human having or suspected of having GEP-NET.

[0031] As used herein, the phrase “therapeutically effective dose” or “therapeutic dose” refers to the amount of active compound or pharmaceutical agent such as an amount of any of the solid forms or salts thereof as disclosed herein that elicits the biological or medicinal response in a tissue, system, animal, individual or human that is being sought by a researcher, veterinarian, medical doctor or other clinician. An appropriate “effective” amount in any individual case may be determined using techniques known to a person skilled in the art.

[0032] The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable” is used herein to refer to those compounds, materials, compositions, and / or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, immunogenicity or other problem or complication, commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio.

[0033] As used herein, the term “treating” or “treatment” refers to inhibiting a disease; for example, inhibiting a disease, condition, or disorder in an individual who is experiencing or displaying the pathology or symptomology of the disease, condition, or disorder ( / .e., arresting further development of the pathology and / or symptomology) or ameliorating the 768795: NIT-59885PC disease; for example, ameliorating a disease, condition, or disorder in an individual who is experiencing or displaying the pathology or symptomology of the disease, condition, or disorder ( / .e., reversing the pathology and / or symptomology) such as decreasing the severity of the disease.

[0034] The term “prevent,” “preventing,” or “prevention” as used herein, comprises the prevention of at least one symptom associated with or caused by the state, disease or disorder being prevented.

[0035] “Treatment naive” refers to patients who have not yet received any prior treatment or have not been administered any therapeutic agent directed toward the disease of interest, in this instance GEP-NET. The first round of therapy directed towards a specific disease is referred to as a “first line therapy,” also called “first line treatment,” “induction therapy,” “primary therapy,” and “primary treatment.” Thus, treatment naive patients have not received a first line therapy directed toward GEP-NET including any therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals for GEP-NET, interferons, mTOR-inhibitors (mammalian Target of Rapamycin), chemotherapy or other systemic therapies. Additionally, treatment naive patients have not received more than 4 cycles of a somatostatin analog (SSA, e.g., octreotide LAR).

[0036] As used herein, “radiation” refers to high-energy particles or waves, including, but not limited to, x-rays, gamma rays, electron beams, or protons. Radiation can damage cells by causing small breaks in the cell’s DNA. Such breaks in cancer cells inhibits their growth and division and can induce cell death. Radiation can be delivered externally and / or internally. External radiation is most commonly delivered in the form of a beam of high-energy rays or particles directed at the tumor. Internal radiation therapy is administered by introducing radioactive elements into the body locally or systemically. Localized internal radiation therapy, also known as brachytherapy, is administered by introducing a radioactive implant in or near the tumor. Systemic internal radiation treatments are administered topically (including transdermally, epidermally, ophthalmicly and to mucous membranes including intranasally, vaginally and rectally), pulmonarily (e.g., by inhalation or insufflation of powders or aerosols, including by nebulizer; intratracheally or intranasally), orally or parenterally. Parenteral administration includes intravenous, intraarterial, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal intramuscular or injection or infusion; or intracranial, e.g., intrathecal or intraventricular, administration. Although systemically administered, some radiotherapies are targeted to cancer cells, thus reducing their effects on non-cancerous cells. “Progression-free survival” (“PFS”) is the time from date of randomization / start of treatment to the date of event defined as the first documented progression or death due to any cause.

[0037] A “complete response” (“CR”) is demonstrated by the disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to < 10 mm. 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0038] The “sum of diameters” (“SOD”) is the total length of all non-nodal lesions as measured along the long axis and all nodal target lesions along the short axis measured on a medical image.

[0039] A “partial response” (“PR”) is demonstrated by at least a 30% decrease in the SOD of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline SOD.

[0040] A “stable disease” (“SD”) is demonstrated by neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR or OR nor an increase in lesions.

[0041] “Best overall response” (“BOR”) is the best response recorded from the start of the treatment until disease progression / recurrence.

[0042] “Full analysis set” (“FAS”) comprises all participants to whom study treatment has been assigned by randomization.

[0043] “Disease control rate” (“DOR”) is defined as the proportion of participants with BOR of PR, OR, or SD (centrally assessed according to RECIST v1.1 ). More precisely, it counts the presence of at least one OR or PR or SD. The DOR will be calculated based on FAS according to the intent to treat principle. DOR and its 95% Cl will be presented by treatment group. As a supportive analysis, DCR as per local review will be presented by treatment group, along with 95% confidence intervals (Cis).

[0044] “Time to deterioration” (“TTD”) is the time from randomization to the first deterioration by an absolute change of at least 15% (i.e. 15 points, based on IQWiG General Methods Version 7.0) compared with baseline score or death from any causeTTD is calculated for the Gl scale of EORTC-QLQ-GI.NET21 and fatigue, diarrhea, and global health scales of EORTC QLQ-C30. Of note, any deterioration for the diarrhea domain would correspond to a change of at least 33%.

[0045] “Objective response rate” also known as “Overall Response Rate” (“ORR”) is defined as the proportion of participants with BOR of CR or PR, as per central review and according to RECIST v1.1.

[0046] “Hazard ratio” (“HR”) is a summary comparison between the two treatment arms. It is estimated using the Cox proportional hazards model adjusted for randomization stratification factors.

[0047] “Duration of response” (“DOR”), as per RECIST v1.1 defined as time from CR or PR to progression or death due to underlying cancer only. DOR only applies to participants with BOR of CR or PR according to RECIST v1.1 based on BIRC assessment. The start date is the date of first documented response of CR or PR, and the end date is defined as the date of the first documented progression per BIRC or death due to underlying cancer. Participants continuing without progression or death due to underlying cancer will be censored at the date of their last adequate tumor assessment. DOR will be listed and summarized by treatment group for all participants in the FAS with BOR of CR or PR. As a supportive 768795: NIT-59885PC analysis, DOR as per local review will be also presented by treatment group.

[0048] “Overall survival” (“OS”) is defined as the time from date of randomization to date of death due to any cause. If a participant is not known to have died, then OS will be censored at the latest date the participant was known to be alive (on or before the cut-off date). OS will be analyzed in the FAS population according to the randomized treatment group and strata assigned at randomization. The OS distribution will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the Kaplan-Meier curves, medians and 95% Cis of the medians will be presented for each treatment group. The HR for OS will be calculated, along with its 95% Cl, using a stratified Cox model.

[0049] “Time to progression” (“TTP”) is the time from date of randomization / start of treatment to the date of event defined as the first documented progression or death due to underlying cancer.

[0050] “High disease burden” refers to conditions in which participants demonstrate one or more of the symptoms selected from the group consisting from primary tumor or a metastatic lesion > 4 cm, more than one tumor or metastatic lesions measuring > 2 cm, elevated alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 X upper limit of normal (ULN), presence of bone metastasis, presence of peritoneal metastasis, symptoms due to tumor volume such as pain, fatigue, weight loss, anorexia etc, and / or symptoms due to hormone excess requiring active management.

[0051] “Symptomatic disease” encompasses conditions where participants experience symptoms linked to tumor volume, such as pain, fatigue, weight loss, anorexia, Gl bleeding, jaundice, and intestinal obstruction, or symptoms caused by hormone excess that necessitate active management.

[0052] The “Ki-67 index” is a measure of how fast cancer cells are dividing, calculated as the percentage of cells that are positive for the Ki-67 protein.

[0053] [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE

[0054] [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE is a radiopharmaceutical consisting of a ligand (an oligopeptide, coupled to the metal chelating moiety 1 ,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane- 1 ,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA)), and is radiolabeled with lutetium-177 (177Lu). The ligand binds to SSTRs with the highest affinity for subtype 2 (SSTR2), thus making it a treatment option for patients with tumors that express SSTRs.

[0055] The biological basis for the use of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE in treatment of SSTR- expressing tumors is the receptor-mediated internalization and intracellular retention of radiolabeled somatostatin analogs. SSTR2 is an attractive target because the receptor density is higher on tumors than on non-tumor, and because SSTR2 internalize into cells after ligand binding tissue (Reubi, J. et al. (2001) EurJ Nucl Med 28(7):836-46; Reubi, J. 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0056] (2003) Endocr Rev; 24(4):389-427). After binding to SSTR2, the p particle emission from 177Lu forms free radicals that result in DNA damage and cell death.

[0057] [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE has been approved in 40 countries for the treatment of SSTR-positive GEP-NETs. The recommended [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE dose in the approved indications is 7.4 Gigabecquerel (GBq) (200 Millicurie (mCi)) every 8 weeks for a total of 4 doses.

[0058] DOTA-TOC

[0059] DOTA-TOC is an eight amino acid long peptide with a covalently bonded DOTA bifunctional chelator (Blom E. and Koziorowski, J. Somatostatin: Synthesis, Mechanisms-of- Action and Physiological Effects (2013), 41-78). DOTA-TOC can be reacted with radionuclides such as yttrium-90, gallium-68, lutetium-177, and copper-64 to form radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging or radionuclide therapy. Radionuclide therapy with DOTA-TOC targets somatostatin receptors (SSR) (Id.).

[0207] The invention will be described in greater detail by way of specific examples. The following examples are offered for illustrative purposes, and are not intended to limit the invention in any manner. Those of skill in the art will readily recognize a variety of non- critical parameters which can be changed or modified to yield essentially the same results.

[0208] EXAMPLES

[0209] Example 1: Adult Efficacy

[0210] The initial approval of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE was supported by two studies in SSTR-positive tumors. The randomized, controlled Phase III NETTER-1 study compared treatment with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE plus best supportive care (30 mg octreotide LAR) to treatment with high dose (60 mg) octreotide LAR in participants with SSTR-positive progressive midgut neuroendocrine tumors. The study enrolled 231 patients, randomized in a 1 :1 ratio to receive [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE in combination with octreotide LAR 30 mg ([177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE arm, N=116) or octreotide LAR 60 mg monotherapy (control arm, N=113). At the time of the primary endpoint analysis (cut-off date 24-Jul 2015), the improvement in median progression free survival (mPFS) was statistically significant (p<0.0001) with a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.18 (95% confidence interval (Cl): 0.11-0.29), demonstrating a risk reduction of 82% of the risk of a progression or death event in the ([177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE arm compared to the control arm (Strosberg, J. et al. (2017) Neuroendocrine Tumors 376(2): 125-135). The originally published results from this analysis were subsequently updated (cut-off 14-Jan-2016) and reported a mPFS for the [177Lu]Lu- DOTA-TATE arm of 28.4 (28.4; NE) months versus 8.5 (5.8; 11.0) months for control arm (HR 0.21 with 95% Cl: 0.14, 0.33). The final overall survival (OS) analysis occurred 5 years after the last participant was randomized (cut-off date 18-Jan-2021), with a median follow-up of 76 months in each study arm. The median OS was prolonged by a clinically relevant extent of 11.7 months in participants randomized to the [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE arm compared to participants randomized to control arm, with a median OS of 48.0 months (95% Cl: 37.4, 55.2) and 36.3 months (95% Cl: 25.9, 51.7), respectively. However, these results did not reach statistical significance (unstratified Log-rank test p=0.3039, two-sided 95% Cl: 0.60, 1.17) (Strosberg, J. et al. (2021) Lancet Oncol 22(12):1752-1763). 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0211] The other study was a single-institution, single-arm, open-label trial of 1 ,214 participants with SSTR-positive tumors, who received [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE at the Erasmus Medical Centre in the Netherlands (Kwekkeboom, D. et al. (2008) J Clin Oncol 26(13):2124-2130; Brabander, T. et al. (2017) Clin Cancer Res 23(16):4617-4624; Brabander, T. et al. (2017) Endocr Relat Cancer 24(5):243-251.). The treatment effect observed across participants with GEP-NET in the Erasmus MC study was consistent with what was seen in NETTER-1 study.

[0212] [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE is also being investigated in first line setting in the Phase III NETTER-2 study which is a randomized, open-label, multicenter study in participants with newly diagnosed, well differentiated, Grade 2 and Grade 3 advanced GEP-NET. The study enrolled 226 patients, randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE in combination with octreotide LAR 30 mg ([177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE arm, N=151) or octreotide LAR 60 mg monotherapy (control arm, N=75). The study met its primary objective of PFS based on central radiology review (data cutoff for the analysis 20-Jul-2023) which was statistically significant (p < 0.0001 ) with an estimated 72% risk reduction in the [177Lu]Lu- DOTA-TATE arm compared to the control arm (HR: 0.276 with 95% Cl: 0.182, 0.418). The mPFS (95% Cl) was 22.8 months (19.4, NE) and 8.5 months (7.7, 13.8) in the [177Lu]Lu- DOTA-TATE and control arms respectively. The key secondary objective of superior objective response rate (ORR) was also met (43.0% [95% Cl: 35.0-51 .3] versus 9.3% [3.8- 18.3]) with statistically significant benefit in favor of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE arm (Singh, S. et al. (2024) Lancet 403(10446):2807-2817). Further, a subgroup analysis of NETTER-2 demonstrated [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE efficacy across tumor origin and grade (Singh, S. et al. (2024) Ann Oncol; 35:92-93).

[0213] Example 2: Adult Dosimetry

[0214] Dosimetry data from NETTER-1 showed that highest absorbed dose coefficients are detected in the spleen (0.846 ± 0.804 Gray (Gy) / Gigabecquerel (GBq)), the kidneys (0.654 ± 0.295 Gy / GBq) and the liver (0.299 ± 0.226 Gy / GBq) with an absorbed dose in the red marrow of 0.035 ± 0.029 Gy / GBq. Kidney and bone marrow were identified as the main organs at risk considering the cumulative absorbed dose and the margin to the EBRT thresholds. The mean cumulative absorbed doses calculated after 4 administrations of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE with a total activity of 29.6 GBq were estimated to be 19.4 ± 8.7 Gy for the kidneys and 1 .0 ± 0.8 Gy for the bone marrow, below the EBRT thresholds. Overall, the dosimetry results from NETTER-1 and the Erasmus MC Phase l / ll study are similar and indicate that the standard protocol for [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE administration is safe.

[0215] Dosimetry data from NETTER-P in adolescents of age equal or greater than 12 and lower than 18 years, showed comparable organ dosimetry to adults. The high and prolonged 768795: NIT-59885PC uptake of the radiolabeled compound in the tumor lesions observed in the NETTER-1 study confirms [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE tumor uptake data reported in literature, reinforcing the basis for [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE therapeutic efficacy in SSTR2-expressing tumors.

[0217] The limiting organs for radiation toxicities are bone marrow and kidneys (Bergsma, H. et al. (2016) Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging 43(3):453-63; Bergsma, H. et al. (2016) Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging 43(10): 1802-1 1 ). The kidney related toxicity is mitigated by the co-infusion of 2.5% Lysine - Arginine (Lys-Arg) amino acid solutions during administration of [177Lu]Lu- DOTA-TATE, which reduces the radiation dose to the kidney by approximately 45% (Rolleman, E. et al. (2003) Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging 30(1 ):9-15). In the NETTER-1 study, most nephrotoxicity in [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-T ATE-treated participants was mild or moderate: 45 participants (40.5%) had grade 1 or 2 events and 6 participants (5.4%) had > grade 3 events. There were no severe cases of acute radiation toxicity during the study (Strosberg, J. et al. (2021 ) Lancet Oncol 22(12):1752-1763). In the treatment phase of N ETTER-2 study, nephrotoxicity was reported in 9% patients in [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE arm vs. 5% in the control arm. Grade >3 nephrotoxicity was reported in 2% of participants in [177Lu]Lu-DOTA- TATE arm vs. 1% in the control arm (Singh, S. et al. (2024) Lancet 403(10446):2807-2817; Singh, S. et al. (2024) Ann Oncol 35:92-93).

[0218] Bone marrow toxicities include anemia, thrombocytopenia, lymphopenia and neutropenia which are usually mild, transient and can be monitored by hematological assessments between treatments. During the treatment period in NETTER-1 and NETTER-2 studies, based on laboratory evaluations, grade >3 neutropenia and grade >3 thrombocytopenia occurred in 7 participants (2.7%) and 4 participants (1.6%), respectively. The lymphocyte toxicity observed following [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE was demonstrated to affect only B cells, with no evidence of opportunistic infection reported (Sierra, M. (2009) Cancer Biother Radiopharm 24(6):659-65).

[0219] The long-term risks of secondary hematological malignancies (i.e. MDS and leukemia) were reported in 2.3% GEP-NET participants treated with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE and with a follow up of 76 months in NETTER-1 study. In NETTER-2 study after a median follow-up of 23.2 months, one participant (0.7%) developed MDS ([177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE IB).

[0220] At the time of the NETTER-1 final analysis, after a median follow-up duration of 76 months in each study arm, the safety profile of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE remained favorable and consistent with that previously reported (Strosberg, J. et al. (2021 ) Lancet Oncol 22(12):1752-1763). Safety findings in NETTER-2 study (median follow-up duration of 23.2 months) were consistent with known safety profiles for [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE and 768795: NIT-59885PC octreotide LAR. No new safety concerns emerged in the newly diagnosed GEP-NET patient population (Singh, S. et al. (2024) Lancet 403(10446):2807-2817; Singh, S. et al. (2024) Ann Oncol 35:92-93).

[0221] Example 4: Pediatric Safety and Dosimetry

[0222] NETTER-P is a multicenter open-label study to evaluate the safety and dosimetry of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE in adolescent participants with SSTR positive GEP-NET tumors and pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL). The study enrolled 11 adolescent participants, 4 with GEP-NET and 7 with PPGL, aged 13 to 17 years old. The theoretical cumulative absorbed radiation doses of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE in the target organs at risk (i.e., kidney and bone marrow) extrapolated from single cycle dosimetry measurements were within the reference limits (i.e., <29 Gy for kidney and <2 Gy for bone marrow) in adolescents and comparable to adults. Comparative assessment of pharmacokinetics (PK) metrics using population PK model predictions and observed data revealed that the exposure results were comparable between the adolescent and adult populations. Based on the safety data collected up to the primary cut-off date, no new safety signals have been identified. [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE 7.4 GBq (200 mCi) every 8±1 weeks administered over 4 cycles (cumulative dose: 29.6 GBq 1800 mCi) showed a consistent safety and tolerability profile in adolescents with GEP-NET or PPGL, which is similar to that reported in adults in the NETTER-1 study.

[0223] Example 5: Study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE in patients with Grade 1 and Grade 2 advanced GEP-NET (NETTER-3).

[0224] This is a multicenter, stratified, randomized, open-label, comparator-controlled, Phase III study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE compared to Octreotide LAR, in newly diagnosed patients with somatostatin receptor positive, well- differentiated Grade 1 and Grade 2 (Ki-67 <10%), advanced GEP-NETs.

[0226] Open-Label Study To Evaluate The Efficacy And Safety Of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE In Patients Newly Diagnosed With Grade 1 And Grade 2 (Ki-67 <10%) Advanced GEP- NET With High Disease Burden (NETTER-3) 768795: NIT-59885PC 768795: NIT-59885PC 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0227] STUDY DESIGN

[0228] This is a Phase III multi-center, stratified, randomized, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE plus octreotide LAR versus octreotide LAR alone in newly diagnosed patients with SSTR+, well differentiated Grade 1 and Grade 2 (Ki- 67 <10%) advanced unresectable GEP-NETs with high disease burden.

[0229] Overall, 240 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive treatment with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE [7.4 GBq (200 mCi) x 4 administrations every 8±1 weeks] plus octreotide LAR (30 mg every 8 weeks during the [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE treatment period and every 4 weeks thereafter until disease progression) or octreotide LAR alone (30 mg every 4 weeks until disease progression). Participants in the control arm will not be permitted to cross over to the experimental arm after disease progression in this study.

[0230] Randomization will be stratified by tumor Grade (1 vs 2) and tumor origin (pNET vs other origin).

[0231] The primary endpoint of the study is PFS centrally assessed by BIRC. The primary analysis will be performed after 88 PFS events (88 evaluable and centrally confirmed disease progressions or death events) have occurred which is estimated to be observed after 33.5 months.

[0232] If the primary endpoint is statistically significant, key secondary endpoints of TTD in the below domains from European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0233] (EORTC) QLQ-GI.NET21 and EORTC QLQ-C30 will be tested hierarchically, at the time of the primary analysis, in this order:

[0234] 1. EORTC QLQ-GI.NET21 Gl scale

[0236] 3. EORTC QLQ-C30 Diarrhea domain

[0237] 4. EORTC QLQ-C30 Global health scale

[0238] The study consists of the following phases (FIG. 1 ):

[0239] • Screening Phase

[0240] • Treatment Phase

[0241] • Follow-up Phase

[0242] Screening Phase

[0243] The screening phase consists of a maximum of 28 days.

[0244] The randomization and [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE order must be performed immediately after all eligibility criteria are verified.

[0245] All participants in the current study will undergo RLI with an SSTR-targeting agent at screening or within 3 months prior to randomization. Eligibility will be based on the uptake of RLI in tumor lesions at least as high as normal liver uptake.

[0246] Table 2: Allowable window for participant assessments

[0247] Treatment Phase

[0248] Tumor assessments will be performed 16±1 weeks, 24±1 weeks and then every 12±1 weeks thereafter from randomization, according to Response Evaluation Criteria In 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0249] Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 criteria (central + local assessment up to disease progression).

[0250] Before the PFS primary analysis, participants continue the Treatment Phase until progression.

[0251] After the PFS primary analysis, the Treatment Phase duration for participants who have not progressed will be limited to 76 weeks.

[0252] At any time during the study any participant who experience disease progression will immediately ceases the Treatment Phase and proceeds to the Follow-up Phase.

[0253] Experimental Arm

[0254] [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE will be given at the dose of 7.4 GBq (200 mCi) x 4 administrations every 8±1 weeks.

[0255] All participants in [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE arm will receive octreotide LAR (30 mg every 8 weeks during the [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE treatment and every 4 weeks thereafter) until disease progression (or participant withdrawal / unacceptable toxicity). For the octreotide LAR doses coinciding with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE doses, octreotide should be administered between 4 to 24 hours (h) after each [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE dose (same day or the following day). In addition, the washout of at least 4 weeks should be maintained for [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE doses after the previous octreotide LAR dose and the washout of at least 24 h after the previous octreotide short-acting dose, if applicable.

[0256] If the time interval between treatments with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE is prolonged for any reason, octreotide LAR administration continues every 4 weeks provided it is not administered within 4 weeks of the next [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE treatment. Otherwise, octreotide LAR administration needs to be adjusted accordingly.

[0257] Crises due to excessive release of hormones or bioactive substances may occur following treatment, therefore, observation of participants by overnight hospitalization should be considered. Recommended treatments of participants with hormonal crises are: i.v. high dose SSAs, i.v. fluids, corticosteroids, and correction of electrolyte disturbances in participants with diarrhea and vomiting.

[0258] Control Arm

[0259] Octreotide LAR (30 mg every 4 weeks) until disease progression (or participant withdrawal / unacceptable toxicity). Participants in the control arm will not be permitted to cross over to the experimental arm after disease progression in this study. 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0260] Additional Study Treatments

[0261] Table 3: Additional Study Treatments 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0262] 2.5% Lys-Arg sterile amino acid solution

[0263] A sterile 2.5% Lys-Arg AA solution (LysaKare®) will be co-administered with each [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE dose, to decrease the retention of radioactivity in kidneys and substantially reduce potential renal toxicity that could be caused by [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE, as per [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE prescribing information.

[0264] The sterile 2.5% Lys-Arg AA solution must be administered i.v. with the infusion rate of 250 mL / h. The infusion will start 30 min prior to the administration of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA- TATE and continue for a total of 4 h (extension up to 6 h is allowed in case of adverse reactions that require infusion interruption or slowing the infusion rate) to achieve optimal renal protection.

[0265] The composition of the sterile 2.5% Lys-Arg AA solution is shown in Table 4 below.

[0266] Table 4: Sterile 2.5% Lys-Arg AA Solution Composition 768795: NIT-59885PC

[0267] Antiemetics

[0268] On the day of each [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE treatment, before the infusion with sterile 2.5% Lys-Arg AA solution is started, an i.v. bolus of antiemetic (ATC codes: A04A and A03FA01 ) must be given with sufficient lead time as per local prescribing information. The choice of antiemetics is at the discretion of the Investigator in accordance with institutional regulations. In case of severe nausea or vomiting during the infusion of the 2.5% Lys-Arg AA solution despite administration of a preventive antiemetic, an antiemetic of a different pharmacological class can be administered. Corticosteroids must be avoided as preventive anti-emetic treatment because of potential SSTR down-regulation.

[0269] In case of development of nausea and vomiting during the infusion, a repeated administration of antiemetics should be performed at the physician judgment. In general, Investigators are advised to use antiemetics which are commonly prescribed in their institutions for treatment of nausea induced by chemotherapeutic drugs.

[0270] Short-acting octreotide

[0271] Subcutaneous, short-acting octreotide injections may be indicated for control of symptoms (i.e. diarrhoea and flushing) in participants in both study arms, in accordance with the manufacturer’s prescribing information. Short-acting octreotide for symptom control may be administered by the participant.

[0272] Follow-up Phase

[0273] At the end of the Treatment Phase or after study treatment discontinuation due to any cause (including disease progression) the participant will enter the Follow-up Phase. The Follow-up Phase is for 5 years and consists of an initial 12-week safety follow up, a follow up for long term efficacy and a follow up for long term safety and survival.

[0274] Safety Follow-up

[0275] After discontinuation of study treatment for any reason, all participants will have a safety follow up 12 weeks after their last study treatment administration, except in case of death, loss to follow-up or withdrawal of consent (WoC).

[0276] Long-term Efficacy Follow-up

[0277] If a participant discontinues study treatment due to toxicity or other reason without disease progression, the participant will be followed up for efficacy using RECIST v1.1 criteria, every 12 weeks until the primary PFS analysis (central tumor assessment) and thereafter every 6 months (local tumor assessment) with CT or MRI until disease 768795: NIT-59885PC progression, WoC, loss to follow-up, death, or until the end of the study, whichever occurs first (see also FIG. 2).

[0278] Long-term Safety and Survival Follow-up

[0279] Beyond the initial 12 weeks of safety follow-up, survival information, post-treatment antineoplastic therapies / surgeries / radiotherapies, treatment related serious adverse events (SAEs) and all AEs of renal toxicities and secondary tumors (hematological and solid tumors) irrespective of causality will be collected until the end of follow up period every 6 months for 5 years.

[0280] Study drug related AEs will be followed until resolution or until the End of Study, whichever comes first.

[0281] Each participant will have hematology and renal function (serum creatinine and creatinine clearance) assessments during the Long-term Follow-up (LTFU) Phase until he / she withdraws consent, is lost to follow-up, dies, or until the end of the study, whichever occurs first. Investigators can decide to perform additional laboratory assessments at their discretion.

[0282] End of the Study

[0283] The End of Study is after 5 years have elapsed from the last participant last treatment.
