About

This is a single-center, exploratory, Phase 1 Positron Emission Tomography/x-ray Computed Tomography (PET/CT) imaging study to detect amyloidosis that will enroll patients with a confirmed diagnosis of systemic amyloidosis. The purpose of this exploratory trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of 124I-p5+14 Injection at a single-injection dose adequate for imaging amyloid deposits by using PET/CT imaging in subjects with confirmed systemic Immunoglobulin Light Chain-associated Amyloidosis (AL), Transthyretin-associated Amyloidosis (ATTR), Leukocyte Chemotactic Factor 2-associated Amyloidosis (ALect2) as well as other types.

Full description

The rationale for this study is the discovery of a synthetic polypeptide, designated p5+14, a synthetic 45 amino acid peptide that binds many forms of amyloid, including human AL-, ATTR- and ALect2-associated amyloid, as well as human and murine serum amyloid protein A-associated (AA) amyloid. In preclinical studies, using SPECT and PET imaging, as well as microautoradiography, it has been shown that radioiodinated p5+14 binds rapidly and specifically to all amyloid deposits in abdominothoracic organs and tissues.

This is a single site, exploratory, open-label Phase I PET/CT imaging and dosimetry study. The investigational drug product (designated 124I-p5+14 Injection) is an amyloid-reactive synthetic peptide, p5+14 (also known as APi1832), radiolabeled with iodine-124 (I-124 or 124I). All patients enrolled in this exploratory trial will be outpatients with a confirmed diagnosis of systemic amyloidosis.

The first three patients enrolled in the trial (Part 1) will take part in a dose-escalation dosimetry study and will receive a single intravenous (IV) dose of 11.1 Megabecquerel (MBq) (0.3 millicuries (mCi); n = 1), 37 MBq (1 mCi; n = 1) or 74 MBq (2 mCi; n = 1) of 124I-p5+14 Injection for the purpose of determining estimates of organ-associated and whole body radioactive dosimetry.

The trial then will be opened to include another 54 patients who will receive a single IV bolus injection of 2 mCi 124I-p5+14 Injection. Every patient participating will receive < 2 mg of peptide p5+14. The study comprises five parts.

In Part 2, the trial will enroll SA patients with confirmed AL, ATTR, ALECT2, or other forms of amyloidosis.

In Part 3, the trial will study asymptomatic subjects with genetically confirmed mutation of the transthyretin gene.

Part 4 will include five healthy control subjects. Part 5 will recruit previously enrolled subjects from Parts 2 or 3 who received a 2 mC dose of 124I-p5+14 Injection and had images confirming the presence of abnormal amyloid deposits for a second exposure to 124I p5+14 Injection and second PET/CT scan.

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Subjects included in this trial are volunteers with a confirmed diagnosis of systemic amyloidosis, a genetically well-defined mutation of the TTR gene but without clinical evidence of active disease, and at an age typical of development of symptomology ≥ 50, or healthy control subjects (≥30 years).

Prior to participation in Parts 1 or 2 of the trial (n = 73), the following inclusion criteria must be met

Subjects included in this trial are volunteers with a confirmed diagnosis of systemic amyloidosis, a genetically well-defined mutation of the TTR gene but without clinical evidence of active disease, and at an age typical of development of symptomology ≥ 50, or healthy control subjects (≥30 years).

Prior to participation in Parts 1 or 2 of the trial (n = 73), the following inclusion criteria must be met:

  1. Patients must have a confirmed diagnosis of systemic amyloidosis, based on either a histologic confirmation that a biopsy contains deposits of apple-green birefringent, Congophilic material or genetic screening and presence of amyloid-related pathology, or amyloid-specific imaging study. Additionally, the type of amyloidosis (AL, ATTR, ALect2, or other) should be characterized.
  2. Patients enrolled in Part 1 (n = 3) must have widespread AL amyloidosis, defined as biopsy proven or clinically detectable involvement, of at least two organs (excluding the peripheral nervous system).
  3. All patients in Parts 1 and 2 will be 18 years of age or older. There are no gender or racial restrictions.
