Estimation of dosimetry for 99mTc-p5+14 and Biodistribution Of 99mtc-p5+14 In Healthy Subjects

Biodistribution in patients with systemic AL or ATTR amlyoidosis

Arm Description

For dosimetry, patients with a confirmed diagnosis of systemic AL amyloidosis, patients will be administered a single IV dose of up to 1 mg of 99mTc-p5+14 (~20 mCi) by slow push (~1 mL/5 sec.). Patients will then undergo serial planar scintigraphic imaging at ~30 minutes, ~1 hour, ~2 hours, ~4 hours, ~6 hours, and ~24 hours post-injection. At the 4-hour time point, the patient will also undergo a single SPECT/CT scan to provide additional data for estimating dosimetry. Before injection of the radiotracer and at each imaging session, ~2 -3 mL of blood will be acquired to determine the whole blood radioactivity. Healthy volunteers will undergo an echo examination, thereafter, they will be administered a single IV dose of 99mTc-p5+14 (20 mCi) and will undergo a single planar image acquisition followed by SPECT/CT imaging at ~1 hour and ~3 hours post-injection.

Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of systemic AL or ATTR (with or without a positive PyP scan) will be administered a single IV dose of up to 1 mg of 99mTc-p5+14 (~20 mCi) by slow push (~1 mL/5 sec.). At ~1 hour and ~3 hours post-injection, patients will undergo abdominothoracic planar imaging followed by SPECT/CT imaging covering the same area. Vital signs (blood pressure, respiration rate, temperature, and pulse) will be acquired before injection of the 99mTc-p5+14, and at ~3 hours post injection. On Day 3, patient will undergo a trans thoracic echo examination. On Day 4, patients will undergo Technescan™ 99mTc-PYP (20 mCi) planar and SPECT/CT imaging at ~1 hour and ~3 hours post-injection. Vital signs (blood pressure, respiration rate, temperature, and pulse) will be acquired before injection of the 99mPYP, and at ~3 hours post injection.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study will investigate 99mTc-p5+14, an amyloid-reactive synthetic peptide, p5+14, radiolabeled with technetium-99m, as a radiotracer for detecting paamyloid deposits in patients with AL or ATTR-associated systemic amyloidosis, notably with cardiac involvement.
Detailed Description
The University of Tennessee Graduate School of Medicine (UTGSM) is investigating 99mTc-p5+14, an amyloid-reactive synthetic peptide, p5+14, radiolabeled with technetium-99m, as a radiotracer for planar gamma scintigraphy (PGS), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) or SPECT with x-ray computed tomography (SPECT/CT) for the diagnosis of systemic amyloidosis, notably with cardiac involvement. Based on nonclinical data and clinical data of 124I-p5+14 from Study AMY1001, peptide p5+14 binds many types of human amyloid and is rapidly cleared from the central compartment. When radiolabeled with 99mTc, p5+14 may enable visualization of amyloid laden tissues and organs by SPECT/CT imaging or PGS. Thus, this study has been designed to evaluate the dosimetry and biodistribution of 99mTc-p5+14 in patients with systemic amyloidosis compared with the biodistribution in healthy volunteers.

Intervention Type
Drug
Intervention Name(s)
99mTc-p5+14 is an amyloid reactive peptide labeled with technetium-99m.
Intervention Description
Peptide p5+14 is a pan-amyloid reactive, synthetic 45 L-amino acid polypeptide with a net +12 positive charge that can bind two major components of all extracellular amyloid deposits: (i) hypersulfated heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans (proteoglycans) and (ii) amyloid fibrils. The polypeptide, labeled with iodine-124, has been shown (study AMY1001) to bind amyloid in all organs including the heart. This study will evaluate a Tc-99m-labeled version of the peptide for gamma imaging.
