Study stopped after a negative result delivred by the CPP for a substancial modification of the protocol

This study evaluates the clinical impact of AGuIX® nanoparticles in combination with Fractionated Stereotactic Radiation in oligo brain metastases.

AGuIX® (Activation and Guidance of Irradiation by X-ray, NH TherAguix) are Gadolinium chelated polysiloxane based nanoparticles with Magnetic Resonance contrast properties, able to accumulate in the tumor through the enhanced permeability and retention effect and sufficiently small (sub-5 nm diameter) to allow for renal clearance.

AGuIX® nanomedicine can be used as:

• Positive contrast agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). It displays higher efficacy than commercial contrast agents and so it can be used to delineate precisely the tumors.
• A booster of Radiotherapy during the radiotherapy protocol, after the localization of the tumor.

This is permitted by the high radiosensitizing potential of AGuIX® that allows a local increase of efficacy of X-ray damages. French and international groups have demonstrated the radiosensitizer effect of AGuIX® to improve the efficacy of radiotherapy.

Thanks to a difference in porosity between the vascular networks, AGuIX® penetrates and resides in tumor tissues, but not in healthy tissues.

• Histologically-confirmed diagnosis of any histological type of solid tumors, excluding primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors.
• Radiological evidence by MRI : At least one and a maximum of 5 brain metastases, and at least one brain lesion with a longest diameter ≥ 2 cm and eligible for FSRT.
• Patient without progression on extracranial disease documented by radiological assessment as per RECIST v1.1 within 4 weeks before inclusion.
• For patients treated with a systemic anti-cancer therapy: a minimal 2-week washout period is required from the date of last systemic treatment administration to Day 1, except for hormonal agents.
• ECOG Performance Status (PS) ≤2.
• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.0 G/L, Platelets ≥ 75 G/L, Hemoglobin ≥ 8 g/dL, Serum creatinine OR Creatinine clearance according to CKD-EPI ≤ 1.5 x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) OR ≥ 50 mL/min/1.73m2, ASAT and ALAT ≤ 3 x ULN (or ≤ 5.0 ULN in case of liver metastasis or hepatic infiltration),INR and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) ≤1.5 x ULN.

• Patients who understand, sign, and date the written voluntary informed consent form at the screening visit prior to any protocol-specific procedures. Patient should be able and willing to comply with study visits and procedures as per protocol.
• Patients must be covered by a medical insurance.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Prior local treatment with radiotherapy (whole / partial brain or stereotactic radiosurgery) or surgical resection of brain lesions.
• Patient participating to another clinical trial with an investigational agent.
• Patients who have not recovered from significant adverse events (i.e. Grade > 2 AE according to NCI CTCAE v5.0) due to prior treatment with anti-cancer agents with exception of any Grade alopecia or lab values presented in inclusion criteria.
• Contra-indication for MRI enhanced with gadolinium (e.g. cardiac pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, certain cardiac valve replacements, certain metal implants).
