OXFORD, UK I October 8, 2024 I Blue Earth Therapeutics Ltd, an emerging leader in the development of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, today announced further positive developments for its novel investigational radioligand therapies. Enrolment of patients in the Phase 1 trial of Lutetium ( 177 Lu) rhPSMA-10.1 Injection was completed in July. Early data from the trial suggests an encouraging safety profile. Radiation dosimetry performed for up to three cycles showed delivery of high tumour absorbed radiation doses relative to the dose delivered to the key normal organs, such as kidney and salivary glands. While final analysis is ongoing, the ratio between radiation dose to tumours vs. dose to the kidneys and salivary glands was compelling vs. published data 1 for first generation radioligand therapies. This data opens the way for the Phase 2 portion of the Phase 1/2 trial to start later this year. The company has shared the intended Phase 2 study design with regulators and, subject to trial safety committee agreement, will test innovative dosing regimens in the Phase 2 study. Based on the advantageous results for absolute tumour and normal organ uptake seen in Phase 1, the Phase 2 study will explore the following concepts: In combination with the positive radiation dosimetry results seen in Phase 1 for Lutetium ( 177 Lu) rhPSMA-10.1 Injection, these factors should further support the ultimate goal of delivering better outcomes for patients. “We are excited by the new data which support our best-in-class thesis and to have a clear path to move from Phase 1 to Phase 2 in the development of our lead therapy,” said David Gauden, CEO. “We remain on track for the opening of Phase 2 in the next few months. We also expect to see the full Phase 1 results presented at a scientific meeting in 2025.” “The available science increasingly highlights that fixed dosing at fixed intervals is unlikely to be optimal. Front loading radioactivity and extending the time on therapy may lengthen time to disease progression. We will explore these concepts in Phase 2. Our intention is to optimize dosing now, with the aim of achieving the best possible outcomes for patients in a future pivotal trial,” commented Dr Daniel Stevens, Head of Clinical Development and Medical at Blue Earth Therapeutics. “We think that adapting dosing based on data from the individual patient will be important for improved results.” The Phase 2 clinical trial of Lutetium ( 177 Lu) rhPSMA-10.1 Injection is planned to open at approximately 15 sites across the US and Europe and enroll approximately 70 patients. 1 Ells, Zachary, et al. “Dosimetry of [ 177 Lu] Lu-PSMA-Targeted Radiopharmaceutical Therapies in Patients with Prostate Cancer: A Comprehensive Systematic Review and Meta analysis.” Journal of Nuclear Medicine (2024). About Radiohybrid Prostate‐Specific Membrane Antigen (rhPSMA) rhPSMA compounds are referred to as radiohybrid (“rh”), as each molecule possesses four distinct domains. The first consists of a Prostate‐Specific Membrane Antigen‐targeted receptor ligand. It is attached to two labelling moieties which may be radiolabeled with diagnostic isotopes such as 18F or 68Ga for PET imaging, or with therapeutic isotopes such as 177Lu or 225Ac for radioligand therapy, all of which are joined together by a modifiable linker which can be used to modulate important pharmacokinetic characteristics. Radiohybrid PSMA offers the potential for targeted treatment for men with prostate cancer and originated at the Technical University of Munich, Germany. Blue Earth Diagnostics acquired exclusive worldwide rights to rhPSMA diagnostic imaging technology from Scintomics GmbH in 2018, and therapeutic rights in 2020, and has sublicensed the therapeutic application to its sister company Blue Earth Therapeutics.

Phase 1 section of Phase 1/2 clinical trial has completed enrolment: transition to Phase 2 underway Clear regulatory feedback received on proposed Phase 2 study design opens new opportunities for innovative dosing regimens vs first generation radioligand therapies OXFORD, United Kingdom, Oct. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Earth Therapeutics Ltd, an emerging leader in the development of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, today announced further positive developments for its novel investigational radioligand therapies.

Based on the advantageous results for absolute tumour and normal organ uptake seen in Phase 1, the Phase 2 study will explore the following concepts: Administration of a significantly higher overall injected radioactivity in comparison to recent Phase 3 clinical trials of other agents. Front loading of administered radioactivity. Extending duration of administration of radioactivity to provide longer time on treatment. In combination with the positive radiation dosimetry results seen in Phase 1 for Lutetium (177Lu) rhPSMA-10.1 Injection, these factors should further support the ultimate goal of delivering better outcomes for patients.
