First Patient dosed in Ph 1 ‘HEAT’ Trial of 177Lu-RAD202 for Treatment of Advanced HER2-Positive Solid Tumors
“Dosing patients in the HEAT clinical trial marks an important milestone in our transition to a clinical-stage company,” said Riccardo Canevari, CEO and Managing Director of Radiopharm Theranostics. “Despite progressive improvements in the management of metastatic HER2-positive disease, the majority of patients experience disease progression on current standard of care and require further therapeutic options. The dosing of the first patient in the ‘HEAT’ trial represents a significant step toward achieving RAD202’s potential to address an unmet need for HER2-positive metastatic patients who are progressing or unable to tolerate current treatment options. With RAD202, we hope to provide an option that can meaningfully improve clinical outcomes for HER2-positive patients, while preserving their quality of life.”
