About this trial

This pilot clinical study evaluates the safety and imaging performance of panitumumab-IRDye800 (pan800), a fluorescent, EGFR-targeted imaging agent - in patients undergoing neurosurgical resection of intracranial lesions.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Subjects with intracranial lesions undergoing surgical removal as their standard of care will be eligible. These may include subjects status post chemotherapy and/or radiation or subjects who have undergone diagnostic biopsy for their original diagnosis and are deemed to be candidates for resection.

Subject age ≥ 18 years.

Chemistry Panel - Potassium, BUN (or urea), and Creatinine

CBC with differential - WBC, including ANC, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelet count

Disqualifiers

Had a myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, or uncontrolled chronic heart failure within 6 months prior to enrollment.

History of infusion reactions to any monoclonal antibody therapies.

Women who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding.

Participants presenting with a baseline QTcF interval > than 480 milliseconds.

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Panitumumab-IRDye800

    Drug

    Subjects receive a single infusion of panitumumab-IRDye800 (pan800) and will undergo near-infrared fluorescence imaging during their neurosurgical procedure 1-5 days after the infusion.

Treatment groups

30 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Study Arm - 50 mg pan800Experimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Study Arm - 100 mg pan800Experimental treatment 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Determine the safety of panitumumab-IRDye800 as an imaging agent in patients undergoing surgery for intracranial lesions.

Safety will be defined by the number of Grade ≥ 2 AEs determined that are clinically significant and considered definitely or probably related to pan800. Safety data will be summarized by grade, severity, and type.

Time frame
From infusion to 15 days post-infusion.

Secondary outcomes

1

Determine the efficacy of panitumumab-IRDye800 in identifying intracranial lesions compared to surrounding normal central nervous system tissue.

Efficacy will be measured by tumor-to-background ratio (TBR) using fluorescence intensity measurements.

Time frame
Within 14 days post-surgery
2

Determine the dosage of the study drug infusion to maximize the tumor-to- background ratio.

There will be an assessment of tumor-to-background ratio (TBR) comparing cohort 1 \& 2.

Time frame
Within 14 days post-surgery
3

Determine the optimal timing of the study drug infusion to maximize the tumor-to- background ratio.

There will be an assessment of tumor-to-background ratio (TBR). Some patients may receive the study drug on varying pre-surgery days rather than infusions on the same day for every patient. The TBR will be assessed for every patient regardless of pre-surgery infusion day. The optimal timing of administration of the study drug will be determined by the highest average TBR from a particular pre-surgery infusion day. TBR will still be assessed using the intraoperative fluorescence imaging taken on the standard of care surgery.

Time frame
Within 14 days post-surgery
