Larotrectinib to Enhance RAI Avidity in Patients With Differentiated Thyroid Cancer Harboring NTRK Fusions

Status: Recruiting
Location: See all (5) locations...
Intervention Type: Drug, Radiation
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Phase 2
SUMMARY

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common form of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). The traditional first line treatment for patients with advanced DTC after surgical resection is radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy. However, less than a quarter of patients with lung metastases will achieve a complete response to RAI therapy, and this therapy carries the risk of pulmonary fibrosis and an increasingly recognized risk of secondary malignancies.

Maximum Age: 99
Healthy Volunteers: f
View:

• Age ≥ 1 year

• Histologic diagnosis of a differentiated thyroid cancer, s/p thyroidectomy and adequate local therapy (e.g., lymph node dissection as per standard of care) for metastatic disease in the neck in the opinion of the treating investigator

• Anatomically evaluable disease on chest CT meeting one of the following criteria (obtained within 90 days of enrollment):

• A. multiple (\> 10) noncalcified solid pulmonary nodules visible on CT and/or

• B. enlarging, discrete pulmonary nodules visible on CT of any number consistent with metastatic disease

• Identification of an neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) (NTRK1, NTRK2, or NTRK3) gene fusion in a CLIA/CAP accredited laboratory without known kinase domain resistance mutation

• Lansky/Karnofsky performance status ≥ 50%

• Adequate Organ Function

• A. Bone Marrow Function:

⁃ Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1000/mm3

⁃ Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm3 (transfusion independent, defined as not receiving platelet transfusions for at least 7 days prior to enrollment)

⁃ Hemoglobin ≥ to 8.0 g/dL at baseline (may receive red blood cell (RBC) transfusions).

• B. Adequate Renal Function:

• Creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥ 70 mL/min/1.73 m2 or a maximum serum creatinine based on age/gender as follows:

• Age Maximum Serum Creatinine (mg/dL) Male Female 1 to \< 2 years 0.6 0.6 2 to \< 6 years 0.8 0.8 6 to \< 10 years 1 1 10 to \< 13 years 1.2 1.2 13 to \< 16 years 1.5 1.5

• ≥ 16 years 1.7 1.7

• C. Adequate Liver Function

⁃ Bilirubin (sum of conjugated + unconjugated) ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age.

⁃ Serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) (ALT) ≤ 135 U/L. For the purpose of this study, the ULN for SGPT is 45 U/L.

⁃ Serum albumin ≥ 2 g/dL

• Female patients of reproductive potential must agree to use a highly effective contraceptive method for the duration of study therapy and for at least one month after the final dose of larotrectinib. Males of reproductive potential with a non-pregnant female partner of child-bearing potential must use a highly effective contraception for the duration of the study and for at least one month after the final dose of larotrectinib.

Participants
Target number of participants: 13
Treatments
Experimental: Larotrectinib monotherapy with 131I therapy
Patients will receive larotrectinib monotherapy for 6 months at the FDA-approved dose.~Patients will receive 131I therapy after 6 months of larotrectinib. Larotrectinib will be continued for 5 days after RAI therapy and then patients will enter a wait and see period off treatment.~Patients who experience disease progression at any point while on larotrectinib will proceed to 131I therapy and discontinue larotrectinib.
