A phase 1/1b study of the theranostic pair RYZ811 (diagnostic) and RYZ801 (therapeutic) in patients with glypican-3-positive (GPC3+) previously treated unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.

TPS611 Background: GPC3 is an oncofetal protein expressed in up to 75% of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) and associated with poor prognosis. Its selective expression in tumor and not in normal tissue makes it a promising target for radiopharmaceutical imaging and therapy (theranostics). The GPC3-selective diagnostic RYZ811 ( 68 GaGa-RAYZ-8009) and therapeutic α particle-emitting RYZ801 ( 225 AcAc-RAYZ-8009) are a theranostic pair. Previous studies show high uptake of RYZ811 in intrahepatic and extrahepatic HCCs, with low normal liver background uptake. In GPC3+ HCC mouse models, single administrations of RYZ801 significantly inhibited tumor growth. Methods: RYZ801-101 is a single-arm, open-label, phase 1/1b study of RYZ811 and RYZ801 in previously treated patients with GPC3+ unresectable HCC. The study has two parts: dose escalation (part 1) and dose expansion (part 2). Each part consists of two stages: RYZ811 imaging and RYZ801 treatment. The aim of imaging is to determine if RYZ811 safely and adequately identifies patients with GPC3+ tumors. The aim of treatment is to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D; part 1), and preliminary antitumor activity (part 2) of RYZ801. Key eligibility criteria are: confirmed HCC; Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage B or C; Child-Pugh A; ≥1 RECIST v1.1-measurable lesion (treatment stage); and disease progression after ≥1 systemic therapy in part 1 and 1 prior line in part 2. In part 1, approximately 60 patients will receive RYZ811 (185 MBq) in the imaging stage; up to 30 of these will receive escalating doses of RYZ801 (2.6–5.5 MBq × 4 doses) in the treatment stage. In part 2, approximately 80 patients will receive RYZ811 (185 MBq) in the imaging stage; up to 40 of these will receive RYZ801 at the RP2D in the treatment stage. Primary RYZ811 objectives are to assess the safety/tolerability and biodistribution of RYZ811. Secondary objectives are to determine absorbed doses (ADs) to organs and tissues and any association between RYZ811 uptake and RYZ801 efficacy. Primary RYZ801 objectives are to identify the RP2D and safety/tolerability of RYZ801. Secondary objectives are to assess PK, ADs to critical organs and tumors, and preliminary antitumor activity. Enrollment for Part 1 is ongoing in the USA. Clinical trial information: NCT06726161 .
