A Phase II Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Ultratrace Iobenguane I 131 in Patients With Malignant Relapsed/Refractory Pheochromocytoma/Paraganglioma
Azedra™ Ultratrace™ (Iobenguane I 131), commonly referred to as Ultratrace Iobenguane I 131,
is a very high specific activity form of iobenguane I 131, produced using Molecular
Insight's proprietary Ultratrace™ platform. Based on the well characterized cellular active
transport mechanism, the higher the specific activity of iobenguane I 131, the greater the
cellular uptake of radioactivity and hence greater tumor uptake.
During this study the subjects will receive two (2) Therapy Doses that are given three (3)
months apart. Prior to administration of the first Therapy Dose, subjects will be given an
Imaging Dose of Ultratrace Iobenguane I 131 and will undergo iobenguane I 131 scans to
evaluate tumor uptake and to measure normal organ distribution and allow for the calculation
of radiation dose to normal organs.
Screening procedures for eligibility will need to be done before imaging or therapeutic
doses of Iobenguane I 131 are administered.
Hospitalization is required for approximately one (1) week after each of the two (2)
Therapeutic Doses. Frequent follow up is necessary for the first year and some of the
follow up visits may be done by a visiting health care professional in the subjects' homes.
Subjects will be followed in the treatment study for one (1) year and for an additional four
(4) years in long-term follow up.
