Comparison of radiometal RIT mAb formats developed for targeting EGFR

mAb mAb Format Radionuclide Chelator Dose Administered* Study Highlights Cancer cell line/xenograft
Panitumumab Full-length 212Pb TCMC 0.37-1.48 MBq MS for 0.37 MBq and 0.74 MBq cohorts were 39 d and 58 d compared to 15 d for control untreated mice. LS-174T i.p. xenografts 101
177Lu DOTA-AuNP 1.5-4.5 MBq A dose dependent decrease in in vitro clonogenic survival studies was observed. MDA-MB-468 and MDA-MB-231 104
DOTA 14.8 MBq Tumor growth was inhibited up to 36 d p.i. compared to PBS and non-labeled control; no significant adverse events for body weight nor mortality noted. UM-SCC-22B 105
DOTA-MCP 6 MBq A 6 MBq dosed activity in non-tumor bearing mice did not cause significant decreases in RBC, WBC or platelets, no increase in serum ALT and only a small increase in Cr. [177Lu]Lu-MCP-panitumumab administered mice exhibited significantly decreased tumor volumes at 33 d p.i. compared to control. PANC-1 107
F(ab)'2 212Pb TCMC 0.37-3.7 MBq i.p.
0.185-1.85 MBq
1.11 MBq (i.p.) and 0.74 MBq (i.v.) were selected as effective therapeutic doses with MS of 289 d and 46 d, respectively. Although benefit of i.p. was noted, i.v. administration was chosen for co-administration with gemcitabine (MS: 208 d) or paclitaxel (MS: 239 d). LS-174T i.p. 119
64Cu NOTA 1.85-9.25 MBq 3.7 MBq administered every two weeks was selected. No generalized toxicity of the tracer was noted. OCIP23 pancreatic PDX and PANC-1 120
Cetuximab Full-length 177Lu DOTA 14.8 MBq A significant tumor growth delay was observed up to 30 d p.i., but tumors grew significantly larger (>1500 mm3 35 d p.i.) compared to [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-panitumumab; no significant adverse events for body weight nor mortality noted. UM-SCC-22B 105
PCTA 12.95 MBq A significant difference in tumor volume 16 d p.i. was observed compared to saline or non-labeled cetuximab controls. TE-8 109
12.95 MBq A 55% reduction in tumor volume after treatment was observed. There was a significant decrease in final tumor volume 30 d p.i. compared to saline and non-labeled cetuximab controls. SNU-1066 111
188Re N/A 22.2-59.2 MBq MTD was determined to be 37 MBq. Treatment studies were conducted with 29.6 and 22.2 MBq with MS of 62.5 and 61.75 d (control MS: 36.75 d). NCI-H292 108
64Cu PCTA 11.1-74 MBq MTD: 22.2 MBq. Survival of mice was at 40% when treated with adjuvant [64Cu]Cu-PCTA-cetuximab at 83 d with no detectable lesions. x-PA-1-DC orthotopic xenograft 110
212Pb TCMB 0.37-1.48 MBq 0.37 MBq was chosen as the effective therapeutic dose due to lack of toxicity and a MS that lasted beyond 294 d. LS-174T i.p. xenografts 113
F(ab)'2 177Lu DOTAGA 2-8 MBq Colorectal tumor growth was inhibited for mice administered 4 and 8 MBq compared to 2 MBq and control. Acute weight loss was observed at the 4 MBq dose 20 d p.i. and mice recovered by 23 d p.i. A431 112
