1 Tackling Orphan Diseases in Pediatrics Kim Kramer, MD Associate Member Departments of Pediatrics Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center New York Sophie Davis School of Biomedical Education Research Conference November 12, 2013

2 Orphan Diseases A disease for which no drug therapy has been developed because the small market would make the research and the drug unprofitable May be a rare disease (prevalence< 200,000 people) May be common disease that has been ignored (TB, cholera, typhoid, malaria) : far more prevalent in developing countries than in the developed world.

4 Barrier to Cure: Increasing Incidence of CNS Metastases from Solid Tumors, 10-20% overall

5 Radioimmunotherapy for Pediatric Cancers

6 A Bold Question Can we cure an incurable cancer in the brain?

7 8H9 8H9- IgG(1) targets B7H3 labeled by iodogen, retains immunoreactivity, 50 mCi 131 I/mg 8H9 3F8 3F8 - IgG(3) which binds to GD2 intravenous 3F8: detection and treatment of neuroblastoma labeled with I-124 and I-131 8H9+ Neg Control

8 1h2d Targeting the sanctuary site with radioimmunotherapy (RIT) Safe Outpatient setting

9 Objectives Primary: to determine the response rate and overall survival of pts with high risk CNS tumors treated with RIT Secondary to assess toxicities of serial injections of RIT

10 Eligibility –recurrent CNS or LM Malignancy or high risk LM tumor at Dx –3F8 or 8H9 +reactive tumors tested on frozen tumor tissue by IHC CNS RIT

11 Pediatric Orphan Diseases Tackled To Date >560 injections,140 patients Primary CNS Tumors Ependymoma Medulloblastoma Choroid Plexus Carcinoma Chordoma Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor Embryonal Tumor w/ Rosettes Tumors Metastatic to the CNS Melanoma Rhabdomyosarcoma Retinoblastoma Neuroblastoma

12 Toxicity Profile Transient headache, fever, vomiting common within 24 hrs of injection (self-limited, manageable with acetaminophen, anti-emetics) High mean CSF: blood ratio achieved – 131 I-3F8 62.5 cGy/mCi: 1.5 – 131 I-8H9: 49.7 cGy/mCi: 2.7

13 With intraOmmaya 131-I-MoAb as adjuvant ; J Neurooncol 2010;97(3):409-18. Historical Months from CNS detection of NB IMPROVED SURVIVAL CNS NB WITH INCORPORATION OF RIT GTR ↓ CSI ↓ Temodar/CPT11 ↓ +/- PBSCI ↓ IT 131 I-MoAb * ↓ 3F8/GM-CSF ↓ Temodar po Accutane po

20 Conclusions injections manageable in outpatient setting acute side effects self-limited favorable CSF:blood ratio survival improvement as consolidation long term side effects in survivors need to be monitored:  neurocognitive evaluation  risk of secondary malignancies (t-AML, secondary CNS)  short stature

21 DIPG Approximately 200 children per year/US,between 5-9 years of age 10-15% of all childhood CNS tumors Presentation rapid onset cranial nerve palsies and ataxia Inoperable; RT standard of care but palliative Uniformly poor prognosis, fatal; 90% children die within 12-18 months No advances in over 40 years

22 124 I-8H9 delivered by CED “Team Science” 124 I-8H9 binding to the tumor: Imaged by PET scanner

23 Objectives PRIMARY To determine the maximum tolerated dose of 124 I- 8H9 SECONDARY To estimate tissue radiation doses and volumes of therapeutic distribution To assess the toxicity profile To assess overall survival

29 Preliminary Conclusions CED with 124 I-8H9 for pts with non –progressive DIPG appears safe (doses 0.25-0.75 mCi) No DLTs High tumor:non tumor ratio achieved Overall survival analysis ongoing ?what dose should be considered for phase II consideration Can enough RT via CED 124 I-8H9 be safely delivered to improve survival for pts with DIPG?
