For males of reproductive potential: agree to use of condoms or other methods to ensure effective contraception with partner and refrain from donating sperm starting from screening, during treatment, and for at least 6 months after the last dose of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET
Exclusion Criteria
- Known hypersensitivity to SSA, SSTR imaging agents or any of the excipients of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET. 2. Active secondary malignancy. 3. Pregnancy or breastfeeding a child. 4. Febrile illness within 48 hours of any scheduled [212Pb]VMT-α-NET administration should be rescheduled > 48 hours after resolution of fever]. 5. Treatment with another investigational medicinal product within 30 days of anticipated treatment. 6. Prior treatment with systemic PRRT based therapies (i.e., [90Y] DOTATATE/DOTATOC or [177Lu] DOTATATE) 7. Prior treatment with 90-Yttrium radioembolization must be completed at least 6 months prior to enrollment. 8. External beam radiation therapy must be completed at least 30 days prior to enrollment. 9. Prior treatment with systemic anticancer therapy must be completed at least 30 days prior to enrollment (except for SSAs in subjects with functional tumors). 10. Major surgery must be completed at least 30 days prior to enrollment. 11. Known brain metastases; unless these metastases have been treated and stabilized 6 months prior to enrollment and the subject has been off steroid support for at least 14 days prior to enrollment. 12. Recently diagnosed and active infections requiring a time-limited course of antifungals or antibiotics in the 3 days prior to enrollment. 13. Receipt of live attenuated vaccines in the 7 days prior to enrollment. 14. Grade 3 nausea/vomiting or diarrhea within 72 hours before the of first scheduled dose of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET despite adequate antiemetic and other supportive care 15. Known medical condition which would make this protocol unreasonably hazardous for the subject. 16. Medical history of a condition resulting in a severe allergic reaction such as anaphylaxis or angioedema to known components of the Investigational Medicinal Product or excipients. 17. Current abuse of alcohol or illicit drugs (exclusive of use of medically prescribed cannabinoids). 18. Existence of any medical or social issues likely to interfere with study conduct or that may cause increased risk to the subject or to others, e.g., lack of ability to follow radiation safety precautions. 19. QTc > 450 milliseconds for males and females.

Detailed Description
This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, radioactivity dose-finding/ dose expansion study of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET in up to 260 adult subjects with unresectable or metastatic SSTR2-expressing neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) who have not received prior peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT). Somatostatin Receptor type 2 (SSTR2) is highly expressed on various tumors including NETs and therefore is an attractive therapeutic target for NET treatment. Lead-212 ([212Pb]-) based peptide-radiopharmaceuticals are an emerging class of targeted alpha-particle cancer therapies that have potential to improve delivery of a highly effective form of radiation. [212Pb] VMT-a-NET is a targeted alpha therapy agent designed to enhance the precision and effectiveness of cancer treatment by delivering a highly potent form of radiation directly to cancer cells. This approach aims to maximize radiation delivery to tumors while minimizing exposure to healthy tissues. The study will be conducted in 2 parts: Part 1: Phase I Dose-Finding: Subjects will receive radioactive doses of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET up to a maximum dose of 222 MBq (6 mCi) for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observation, determining Optimal Biological Dose (OBD) and potential Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) for Part 2 (Dose Expansion). Dose changes or adjustments will be made by the safety monitoring committee (SMC) and Sponsor. The RP2D will be determined following a holistic analysis of observed DLTs, adverse events (AEs), estimated cumulative organ radiation exposure, and efficacy signals over the course of all treatment cycles for all dose cohorts. Part 2: Phase IIa Dose-Expansion: This part will enroll subjects who will receive RP2D identified in Part 1 for further assessment of safety and preliminary efficacy. Reno-protective amino acids will be co-administered prior to each [212Pb]VMT-α-NET dose in all subjects. Dose-finding will be based on an adaptive design until optimal biologic dose is identified or the pre-specified rules are met. A dosimetry sub-study using [203Pb]VMT-α-NET will be conducted. The subjects will undergo dosimetric evaluation prior to receiving the therapeutic agent.
