Who can take part
AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with advanced solid tumors (pancreatic, lung, breast, colorectal cancer or soft tissue sarcoma) that have grown after earlier treatment and show uptake of the 68Ga-NNS309 scan agent.
- Age
- 18 years or older
- Sex
- All sexes can join
- Disease stage
- Locally advanced that cannot be removed by surgery, or metastatic: pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, HR+/HER2- breast cancer, triple negative breast cancer, colorectal cancer, or (dose expansion only) soft tissue sarcoma (not GIST or Kaposi).
- Earlier treatment
- The disease must have grown after, or the person could not tolerate, earlier treatment for their cancer type (for example chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy or hormone therapy). Any prior radioligand therapy is not allowed. No radiation therapy within 4 weeks before the first dose.
- Biomarker or test result
- Tumor lesions must show 68Ga-NNS309 uptake on the scan.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Low blood counts (neutrophils < 1.5 x 109/L, hemoglobin < 9 g/dL, platelets < 100 x 109/L)
- QTcF heart rhythm interval ≥ 470 msec
- Kidney function eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m2
- Unmanageable urinary tract obstruction or urinary incontinence
- Symptomatic brain or spinal cord (CNS) metastases, or CNS metastases needing local CNS therapy
The registry criteria, word for word
Show all 15 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- Adults ≥ 18 years with one of the following indications:
- Locally advanced unresectable or metastatic PDAC, with disease progression following, or intolerance to cytotoxic therapy, unless patient was ineligible to receive such therapy
- Locally advanced unresectable or metastatic NSCLC without any actionable genomic alterations with disease progression following, or intolerance to chemotherapy and immunotherapy, unless patient was ineligible to receive such therapy, or locally advanced unresectable or metastatic NSCLC with an actionable genomic alteration with disease progression following, or intolerance to chemotherapy and targeted therapy, unless patient was ineligible to receive such therapy
- Locally advanced unresectable or metastatic HR+/HER2- ductal and lobular breast cancer with disease progression following, or intolerance to, hormone therapy and CDK inhibitor, and at least one additional line of therapy, unless patient was ineligible to receive such therapy
- Locally advanced unresectable or metastatic triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) with disease progression following, or intolerance to, at least two lines of therapy, unless patient was ineligible to receive such therapy
- Locally advanced or metastatic unresectable CRC with disease progression following, or intolerance to cytotoxic chemotherapy, unless patient was ineligible to receive such therapy. Patients with known microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) status must also have had disease progression following, or intolerance to, immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy, unless patient was ineligible to receive such therapy
- (Dose expansion only) Locally advanced unresectable or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma (excluding GIST and Kaposi) with disease progression following, or intolerance to, at least one line of systemic therapy
- Patients must have lesions showing 68Ga-NNS309 uptake
Who cannot take part
- Presence of symptomatic CNS metastases, or CNS metastases that require local CNS-directed therapy
- Any prior radioligand therapy
- Radiation therapy within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of [177Lu]Lu-DFC413; Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1.5 x 109/L, hemoglobin < 9 g/dL, or platelet count < 100 x 109/L
- QT interval corrected by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≥ 470 msec
- eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m2, calculated using CKD-EPI 2021 or measured
- Unmanageable urinary tract obstruction or urinary incontinence

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, dosimetry and preliminary efficacy of [177Lu]Lu-DFC413 and safety and imaging properties of [68Ga]Ga-NNS309 in patients aged ≥ 18 years with solid tumors
The group in the trial
- Arm 1Treatment being tested
Patients will receive 68Ga-NNS309 and only patients with tumor uptake will receive 177Lu-DFC413
Treatment: 68Ga-NNS309 and 177Lu-DFC413
