About the Study

Dose Escalation Study of iopofosine (also known as I-131-CLR1404) in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable, monoclonal proliferation of plasma cells. Approximately 80,000 Americans are affected by MM with approximately 22,000 new cases diagnosed and 11,000 deaths each year. The introduction of newer therapies in the past twenty years, such as autologous stem cell transplantation and novel agents such as proteasome inhibitors and immune modulating drugs has improved outcomes, with current median overall survival estimates of 3-10 years depending on a number of patient-, disease- and treatment-related factors. However, despite these innovations, myeloma relapse is inevitable. Therefore, there is a clear need for improved therapies for MM and, in particular, for relapsed disease.

Iopofosine is a radioiodinated therapeutic that exploits the selective uptake and retention of phospholipid ethers (PLEs) by malignant cells. Cellectar Biosciences' novel cancer-targeted small-molecule compound (iopofosine) is radiolabeled with the isotope iodine-131 (I-131). Radioiodinated iopofosine has been evaluated in over 60 xenograft and spontaneous (transgenic) tumor models. In all but two cases of hepatocellular carcinoma, iopofosine demonstrated selective cancer cell uptake and retention. In various rodent tumor models, iopofosine has also demonstrated tumor growth delay and prolongation of survival.

Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to determine the safety and tolerability of I-131-CLR1404 as a single or multiple dose, with and without concurrent weekly dexamethasone, in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have previously been treated with, or are intolerant of, an immunomodulator and a proteasome inhibitor.

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 2
  • Life expectancy of at least 6 months
  • Have initiative and means to be compliant with protocol and within geographical proximity to make required study visits as judged by Investigator
  • Subject or legal representative has ability to read, understand and provide written informed consent for study related procedures
  • Women of childbearing potential must have negative pregnancy test within 24 hours of enrollment
  • Women of childbearing potential and men who are able to father a child, must agree to use an effective contraception method during study and for 12 months following study drug administration

Exclusion Criteria

  • Grade 2 or greater toxicities due to previous therapies, subject to laboratory abnormalities listed below. Stable, tolerable Grade 2 adverse events may be allowed at discretion of Investigator
  • Prior external beam radiation therapy resulting in greater than 20% total bone marrow receiving greater than 20 Gy
  • Prior radioisotope therapy
  • Prior total body or hemi-body irradiation
  • Extradural tumor in contact with the spinal cord or tumor located where swelling in response to therapy may impinge upon spinal cord
  • Subject has any of following laboratory abnormalities: WBC <3000/uL; ANC <1500/uL; Hemoglobin <8 g/dL; Estimated glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min/1.73 m2; ALT >3 x ULN ; Bilirubin >1.5 x ULN
  • Platelet count <100,000/uL without full-dose anticogulation therapy
  • Platelet count <150,000/uL with ongoing full-dose anticoagulation therapy
  • Clinically significant bleeding event, as judged by investigator, within prior 6 months
