RESUMEN
This Phase I/II radioimmunotherapy study was carried out to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and therapeutic potential of 131I-G250. Thirty-three patients with measurable metastatic renal cell carcinoma were treated. Groups of at least three patients received escalating amounts of 1311I (30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 mCi/m2) labeled to 10 mg of mouse monoclonal antibody G250, administered as a single i.v. infusion. Fifteen patients were studied at the MTD of activity. No patient had received prior significant radiotherapy; one had received prior G250. Whole-body scintigrams and single-photon emission computed tomography images were obtained in all patients. There was targeting of radioactivity to all known tumor sites that were > or =2 cm. Reversible liver function test abnormalities were observed in the majority of patients (27 of 33 patients). There was no correlation between the amount of 131I administered or hepatic absorbed radiation dose (median, 0.073 Gy/mCi) and the extent or nature of hepatic toxicity. Two of the first six patients at 90 mCi/m2 had grade > or =3 thrombocytopenia; the MTD was determined to be 90 mCi/m2 131I. Hematological toxicity was correlated with whole-body absorbed radiation dose. All patients developed human antimouse antibodies within 4 weeks posttherapy; retreatment was, therefore, not possible. Seventeen of 33 evaluable patients had stable disease. There were no major responses. On the basis of external imaging, 131I-labeled mouse monoclonal antibody G250 showed excellent localization to all tumors that were > or =2 cm. Seventeen of 33 patients had stable disease, with tumor shrinkage observed in two patients. Antibody immunogenicity restricted therapy to a single infusion. Studies with a nonimmunogenic G250 antibody are warranted.

UNLABELLED: A model that describes the pharmacokinetic distribution of 131I-labeled G250 antibody is developed. METHODS: Previously collected pharmacokinetic data from a Phase I-II study of 131I-G250 murine antibody against renal cell carcinoma were used to develop a mathematical model describing antibody clearance from serum and the whole body. Survey meter measurements, obtained while the patient was under radiation precautions, and imaging data, obtained at later times, were combined to evaluate whole-body clearance kinetics over an extended period. RESULTS: A linear two-compartment model was found to provide good fits to the data. The antibody was injected into Compartment 1, the initial distribution volume (Vd) of the antibody, which included serum. The antibody exchanged with the rest of the body, Compartment 2, and was eventually excreted. Data from 13 of the 16 patients fit the model with unique parameters; the maximum, median and minimum values for model-derived Vd were 6.3, 3.7 and 2.11, respectively. The maximum, median and minimum values for the excretion rate were 8 x 10(-2), 2.4 x 10(-2) and 1.3 x 10(-2) hr(-1), respectively. Parameter sensitivity analysis showed that a change in the transfer rate constant from serum to the rest of the body had the greatest effect on serum cumulative activity and that the rate constant for excretion had the greatest effect on whole-body cumulative activity. CONCLUSION: A linear two-compartment model was adequate in describing the serum and whole-body kinetics of G250 antibody distribution. The median initial distribution volume predicted by the model was consistent with the nominal value of 3.81. A wide variability in fitted parameters was observed among patients, reflecting the differences in individual patient clearance and exchange kinetics of G250 antibody. By selecting median parameter values, such a model may be used to evaluate and design prolonged multiple administration radioimmunotherapy protocols.
