Radioactive antibody hunt: could a new scan outsmart hidden kidney cancer?

NCT ID NCT06447103

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This Phase II trial tests whether a special PET/CT scan using a radioactive tracer called 89Zr-DFO-girentuximab can find recurrent clear cell renal cell carcinoma after surgery better than standard contrast-enhanced CT. The tracer attaches to a protein (CAIX) on kidney cancer cells, making them visible on the scan. About 91 adults who had surgery for kidney cancer will be enrolled to compare the two imaging methods.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
89Zr-DFO-girentuximab (a radioactive tracer that attaches to CAIX protein on kidney cancer cells)
What this could lead to
If successful, this imaging method could detect recurrent kidney cancer earlier and more accurately than standard CT scans, potentially improving treatment decisions.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase II trial with only 91 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The new tracer involves radiation exposure and may not detect all recurrences.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 18 * Histologically confirmed clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) (ccRCC) (based on partial/radical nephrectomy/metastasectomy) * For tumors with extensive sarcomatoid features, if there is evidence of areas of clear cell and high CAIX expression throughout the tumor on immunohistochemistry, they will be allowed on study * Subjects must have undergone definitive treatment of their primary tumor (partial/radical nephrectomy) +/- resection of metastatic disease to no evidence of disease (NED) with a prior nephrectomy \< 2 years) * Surgery must have been performed between 4-16 weeks at the time of planned imaging * Subjects are considered to have a high risk of recurrence based on the following criteria: * Intermediate-high risk ccRCC: * pathologic tumor stage 2 (pT2), grade 4, or sarcomatoid, N0, M0 * pathologic tumor stage 3 (pT3), any grade, N0, M0 * High risk ccRCC: * pathologic tumor stage 4 (pT4), any grade, N0, M0 * pT any stage, any grade, number of positive nodes (pN+), M0 * M1 now NED: pathologically-confirmed ccRCC, undergoing a resection of a solitary, isolated soft tissue metastasis within two years from initial nephrectomy * Negative serum pregnancy tests in female patients of childbearing potential. (Women of child bearing potential \[WOCBP\] require a negative pregnancy test within 24 hours (urine) prior to receiving investigational product) * Consent to practice double-barrier contraception until a minimum of 42 days after 89Zr-DFO-GmAb administration * Individual must be able to remain still and lie flat for duration of the diagnostic imaging procedure (less than 1 hour) Exclusion Criteria: * Inability to provide written informed consent * Any evidence of residual disease or known metastasis at the time of planned 89Zr-DFO-GmAb administration * Prior post-operative imaging for confirmation of disease status * An untreated non-renal malignancy with the following exceptions: * Low risk prostate cancer on active surveillance (National Comprehensive Cancer Network \[NCCN\] very low/low risk) * Non-melanoma skin cancer * Any prior treated malignancy meeting the following characteristics: * Treated stage I or II cancer from which the patient is currently in complete remission * A stage III cancer from which the patient is progressing or has been disease-free for and has required active treatment (e.g. adjuvant or maintenance therapy) within the past 3 years prior to enrollment * A hematologic malignancy from which the patient is currently in complete remission * Contraindication to the use of iodinated contrast-enhanced CT agents, based on: * Severe allergy (for which pre-medication cannot limit adverse reactions) or * Estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≤ 30 ml/min/1.73m\^2 * Prior use of systemic therapy treatment for kidney cancer (PD-1, PD-L1, tyrosine kinase or TOR inhibitor) or radiotherapy within 4 weeks of enrollment * Exposure to experimental diagnostic or therapeutic drug within 14 days from date of planned administration * Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding * Known hypersensitivity to girentuximab * Known inability to remain still and lie flat imaging procedure (about 30 minutes)
