简要总结
This is a single-centre open label phase II study evaluating the effect of lenvatinib treatment for restoring radioiodine uptake and retention in radioiodine-refractory (RAI-R) thyroid cancer to warrant I-131 therapy.
详细描述
RAI-R DTC patients starting standard-of-care lenvatinib treatment will be included in this study. Prior to lenvatinib treatment, patients will undergo I-124 PET/CT to quantify RAI uptake and retention at baseline. The first half of the intended sample size (cohort 1) will be treated with lenvatinib for a total of 12 weeks. After 6- and 12-week treatment, patients will undergo I-124 PET/CT dosimetry to evaluate the redifferentiation effect, assess expected absorbed lesion doses and maximum tolerable activity. Results between 6- and 12-week lenvatinib treatment will be compared to select the lenvatinib treatment duration that leads to highest extent of redifferentiation. The next patients (cohort 2) will then receive lenvatinib for either 6 or 12 weeks.
Patients will undergo subsequent I-131 therapy if a clinically meaningful lesion dose is expected and toxicity is deemed acceptable. For all patients eligible for I-131 therapy, lenvatinib is discontinued prior to administration of I-131 and intra-therapeutic I-131 SPECT dosimetry will be performed for dose verification. Patients who are not eligible for I-131 therapy, will continue lenvatinib treatment at the discretion of the treating physician.
Biopsies are performed at baseline and after 6-week lenvatinib treatment to evaluate alterations at the transcriptional and translational level in biopted tumor lesions. Patients will be followed up according to current guidelines for a total of 9 months after initiating lenvatinib treatment. Metabolic and biochemical response will be assessed using F-18 FDG PET/CT and Tg levels, respectively.

入选标准
- •Age ≥ 18 years at the time of informed consent
- •Histologically or cytologically confirmed DTC (including papillary, follicular or Hürthle Cell carcinoma)
- •Progressive (biochemical or anatomic) disease for which lenvatinib is started as standard treatment at the discretion of the treating physician
- •Measurable disease at baseline imaging (F-18 FDG PET) according to the definition of the Positron Emission Tomography Response Criteria in Solid Tumors (PERCIST) 1.0 with at least one lesion ≥1.0 cm in the longest diameter for a non-lymph node or ≥1.5 cm in the short axis for a lymph node.
- •RAI-R disease on structural imaging, defined as any one of the following:
- •Metastatic lesions that are not RAI-avid on a diagnostic or intra-therapeutic RAI scanperformed prior to enrolment in the current study
- •RAI-avid metastatic lesions which remained stable in size or progressed according to RECIST 1.1 criteria despite RAI treatment. Absence of response is observed during 6-9 months after high dose I-131 therapy.
- •No recent treatment for thyroid cancer:
- •No prior I-131 therapy is allowed <6 months prior to initiation of therapy on this protocol (a diagnostic study using <400 MBq of I-131 is not considered 131I therapy)
- •No external beam radiation therapy is allowed <4 weeks prior to initiation of therapy on this protocol. (Previous treatment with radiation for any indication is allowed if the investigator judges that the previous radiation does not significantly compromise patient safety on this protocol)
- •Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤2 (or Karnofsky ≥60%)
- •Life expectancy ≥3 months
- •Ability to swallow and retain orally-administered medication and no clinically significant gastrointestinal abnormalities that may alter absorption
- •Creatinine ≤1.5 mg/dL (≤133 µmol/L) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula) ≥50 mL/min/1.73m2 or 24-hour urine creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min/1.73m2
- •Adequate blood coagulation function as evidenced by an international normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.5
- •Adequate bone marrow function with:
- •Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5*10^9 /L
- •Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL (5.6 mmol/L)
- •Platelets ≥100*10^9 /L
- •Adequate liver function with
- •Albumin ≥25 g/L
- •Total bilirubin <1.5x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) with an exception for patients with Gilbert's syndrome
- •Aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase ≤3x institutional ULN (≤5x ULN if subject has liver metastases)
- •Negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to starting the study for premenopausal women. Women can be included without pregnancy test if they are either surgically sterile or have been postmenopausal for ≥1 year.
- •Sexually active women of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception during the study and for at least 6 months after the last study treatment administration.Sexually active males patients must agree to use condom during the study and for at least 6 months after the last study treatment administration. Also, it is recommended their women of childbearing potential partner use a highly effective method of contraception. Effective methods of contraception are defined as those, which result in a low failure rate (i.e., less than 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly (for example implants, injectables, combined oral contraception or intrauterine devices). At the discretion of the investigator, acceptable methods of contraception may include total abstinence in cases where the lifestyle of the patient ensures compliance. (Periodic abstinence [e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods] and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.)
- •Voluntary agreement to provide written informed consent and the willingness and ability to comply with all aspects of the protocol
排除标准
