[177Lu]Lu-AKIR001 First-in-human Study

Inclusion Criteria

• •1. Participant must be 18 years of age or older
• •2. Willing and able to provide written informed consent
• •3. Participant has one of the following histologically confirmed metastatic or locally advanced irresectable CD44v6 expressing (confirmed in pre-screening according to the pathology manual (Appendix III) solid malignancy in one of the following groups, with documented disease progression in the last 8 weeks during/after available standard of care treatment options as mentioned below:
• •* For anaplastic, poorly differentiated and radioiodine refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (ATC, PDTC, RAI-R DTC):
• •* For BRAFv600E mutated tumours: BRAF/MEK inhibitors.
• •* For BRAF-wildtype tumours at least one of the following: anthracycline- or taxane containing chemotherapy/ chemoradiotherapy, or other targeted therapies including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), targeted therapies aimed at specific moleculo-pathological features (e.g., targeting NTRK, RET, ALK, PD-L1)
• •* For PDTC or RAI-R DTC: Radio-iodine refractory disease as deemed by treating physician and disease progression after at least one line of systemic targeted therapy (including VEGF, TKI, NTRK, RET, BRAF inhibitors)
• •* For HNSCC:
• •\- At least one prior treatment with combination chemotherapy (either platinum based + 5-Fluorouracil or platinum based + taxane) together with PD1-inhibitor pembrolizumab if combined positive score (CPS) ≥1 or EGFR-inhibitor if CPS \<1 (or if immunotherapy is contraindicated)
• •* For NSCLC
• •\- Treatment with at least two lines of systemic therapy, including checkpoint inhibitor based on PD-L1 status and chemotherapy with a platinum-based regimen.
• •* For vulvar SCC:
• •\- After treatment with first line platinum/paclitaxel+/-bevacizumab +/- pembrolizumab (the latter in case of PD-L1 positivity), and second line with weekly paclitaxel
• •* For cervical SCC:
• •* After treatment with first line systemic therapy with platinum/paclitaxel+/-pembrolizumab (the latter in case of PD-L1 positivity)
• •4. Measurable disease per Response Criteria for Solid Tumours (RECIST) v1.1.
• •5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1.
• •6. Life expectancy of at least three months as estimated by the investigator.
• •7. Adequate organ and bone marrow function within eight days before the first \[177Lu\]Lu-AKIR001 infusion:
• •* Peripheral white blood cells (WBC) ≥3.0 x 109/L
• •* Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 2,000/mm3
• •* Platelet \> 100 x 109/L
• •* Hemoglobin \> 100 g/L.
• •* Serum creatinine of ≤ 1.5x ULN or calculated creatinine clearance of ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 by Cockcroft- Gault
• •* Total serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5x ULN (unless due to Gilbert's syndrome, in which case direct bilirubin must be normal)
• •* Serum AST and ALT ≤1.5x ULN (or ≤ 5x ULN if participant has liver metastases)
• •* Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction \>50% on echocardiography
• •8. Contraceptives
• •* Females of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception prior to study entry, for the duration of study treatment Phase and for six months after the last dose of study drug. Examples of 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, symptom-thermal, or post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. Women must refrain from donating eggs during this same period. Should a female become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her study physician immediately. If a female participant is of child-bearing potential (females are considered not of childbearing potential if they are at least one year postmenopausal and/or surgically sterile), she must have a documented negative serum pregnancy test before any \[177Lu\]Lu-AKIR001 infusion.
• •* Male participant must agree to practice effective barrier contraception (condom) during the entire study treatment period and through four months after the last dose of study drug or agree to completely abstain from heterosexual intercourse.
