2019 – A Phase I Study of NBTXR3 Activated by Radiotherapy for Patients with Advanced Cancers Treated With an Anti-PD-1 Therapy

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Tête & Cou, Foie, Poumon, Poumon, Tête & Cou

The majority of cancer patients are resistant to immune therapy; only around 15% respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). Thus, strategies able to increase ICI response are of great interest. Recent work suggests radiotherapy (RT) can act as an immunomodulator to increase the proportion of ICI responders and improve clinical outcomes. […]

2019 – Phase I study of hafnium oxide nanoparticles activated by Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) as a new therapeutic option for elderly or frail HNSCC patients

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, NO-RIGHTS, Tête & Cou

New therapeutic approaches are needed for elderly or frail head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients (pts) ineligible for standard of care. NBTXR3, hafnium oxide nanoparticles injected intratumorally, may represent an option. Otherwise inert, NBTXR3 augments the radiation therapy (RT) dose within tumor cells when activated by RT, increasing tumor cell death compared to RT alone. […]

2019 – RSNA – Treatment of locally advanced HNSCC by NBTXR3

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Tête & Cou

Elderly head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HSNCC) patients (pts) ineligible for standard of care treatment require new therapeutic approaches. NBTXR3, hafnium oxide nanoparticles, may represent such an option. NBTXR3 is activated by radiotherapy, enhancing its effects, leading to physical destruction of cancer cells. A Phase I/II trial [NCT01946867] is underway to evaluate NBTXR3 in elderly (≥70 years) or frail pts with HNSCC of the oral cavity and oropharynx ineligible for cisplatin or intolerant to cetuximab.

2019 – ASTRO – NBTXR3 for the treatment of solid tumors

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Rectum, STM, Tête & Cou

Local interventional treatments of cancers include interventional radiology and radiotherapy (RT). NBTXR3, hafnium oxide nanoparticles, is deeply associated to both. Given as a single local administration it increases energy dose deposit inside tumor cells only when activated by ionizing radiation. Various interventional treatments have been used to treat cancers such as liver, lung, bone. Because entirely new therapies such as NBTXR3 are being introduced, implementation of interventional approaches is continuously growing. […]

2019 – ASCO – Phase I NBTXR3 in elderly/frail HNSCC patients

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Tête & Cou

New therapeutic approaches are needed for elderly or frail head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients (pts) ineligible for standard of care treatment. NBTXR3, a crystalline solution of hafnium oxide nanoparticles may represent such an option. Injected intratumorally, NBTXR3 enters tumor cells and yields an increased cell-localized energy deposit upon exposure to radiotherapy (RT), leading to increased tumor cell death compared to the same dose of RT alone.

2019 – AHNS – Phase I/II NBTXR3 in combination with anti-PD-1

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Poumon, Tête & Cou

Preoperative radiotherapy (RT) is an option for a subset of patients with locally advanced primary or relapsed tumors. Yet, its impact on efficacy in terms of pathological response is limited, highlighting the need for novel multimodal therapies aimed at local control with low toxicity. NBTXR3 is made of hafnium oxide nanoparticles which, injected intratumorally (IT) and activated by ionizing radiation, yield a tumor-localized high energy deposit and increase cell death compared to the same dose of RT alone.

2019 – ASCO-SITC – NBTXR3 with anti-PD-1 in advanced HNSCC or NSCLC

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Poumon, Tête & Cou

Despite proven efficacy, a limited number of patients (pts) with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) benefit from anti-PD-1 treatment. Indeed, most pts do not respond to initial therapy due to intrinsic re-sistance to checkpoint inhibition. There is thus an important unmet medical need for a curative treatment in these pts and converting the local immune microenvironment to a “hot” phenotype may help to overcome therapeutic resistance.
