Study Summary

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the glycemic efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ersodetug for treatment of hypoglycemia in patients with Tumor-Associated Hyperinsulinism (tHI).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Double-Blind Arm: (Ambulatory ICT and Ambulatory NICT participants)

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The eligibility criteria of all participants must be evaluated by amultidisciplinary team led by the PI which must include an oncologist

  • Male or female participants of ≥18 years of age who provide written informed consent

  • Participants with a clinical diagnosis and laboratory confirmation of ICT or NICT,with associated hypoglycemia that is considered refractory to surgery and to usualSOC anti-hypoglycemia therapies, per investigator judgement.

  • Experiencing an average of ≥ 3 hypoglycemia events per week that meet Level 2criteria and/or Level 3 criteria during the two weeks before randomization

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants who have not previously received tumor-directed therapy (including atleast one course/trial of systemic tumor-directed therapy, as appropriate) but areconsidered appropriate for tumor-directed therapies by the investigator and/or amulti-disciplinary oncology care team.

  • Initiation of, or changes to tumor directed therapies within 8 weeks prior toinitiation of study drug, or expected initiation or significant changes to thesetherapies over the course of the pivotal treatment period

  • Initiation of, or significant changes to, SOC medical (e.g. diazoxide, SSAs,continuous glucagon, mTOR-Inhibitors, etc.) or supplemental enteral treatments (e.g.continuous tube feeds) used for the chronic management of hypoglycemia within 4weeks of screening (per investigator's discretion), or expected changes to SOCmedical therapies over the course of the pivotal treatment period.

  • Any out-of-range laboratory value at screening (other than glucose) that is assessedas clinically significant by the investigator.

Open-Label Arm: (Hospitalized ICT and NICT participants)

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The eligibility criteria of all participants must be evaluated by amultidisciplinary team led by the PI which must include an oncologist

  • Male or female participants of ≥18 years of age who provide written informedconsent.

  • Clinical diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) (ICT or NICT) with biochemicalevidence of tHI confirmed via laboratory assessment who have failed to achieveadequate control of hypoglycemia with usual SOC anti-hypoglycemic therapies, perinvestigator judgement.

  • Requiring IV glucose infusion and/or parenteral nutrition for ≥3 days for managementof uncontrolled hypoglycemia

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Evidence of active infection including human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B, orhepatitis C (excluding immunization patterns).

  • Any out-of-range laboratory value at screening (other than glucose) that is assessedas clinically significant by the investigator.

  • Any organ condition, concomitant disease (e.g., psychiatric illness, severealcoholism, or drug abuse, cardiac, hepatic, or kidney disease), or otherabnormality that itself, or the treatment of which in the opinion of theinvestigator and/or Sponsor's Medical Monitor would pose an unacceptable risk to theparticipant in the study.

Study Description

This study will include participants who are suffering from low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) related symptoms due to over-production (too much) of hormones (e.g. insulin or similar substances) by certain tumors that cannot be treated satisfactorily with available treatment.

The study is divided into 3 periods: Screening (up to 4 weeks), Treatment (8 weeks) and either Follow-up (4 weeks) or optional Open Label Extension (OLE) phase (up to 3 years).

Overall, the study will enroll about 48 participants. Participants will be assigned to the appropriate treatment group depending on the type of tumor and whether they are hospitalized or not. For those not hospitalized, participants will be assigned in random order to either receive ersodetug or placebo (substance that looks like the study drug but does not contain active study drug) for the 8-week treatment period. All patients will receive ersodetug in the optional OLE period. The study will be comprised of the following treatment groups:

  • Not hospitalized (referred to as ambulatory) insulin secreting tumor participants who receive usual treatment/standard of care therapies (SOC) and 9 mg/kg of ersodetug

  • Ambulatory insulin secreting tumor participants who receive SOC and placebo

  • Hospitalized (receiving IV dextrose or TPN ≥3 days) insulin or IGF secreting tumor participants who receive SOC and 9 mg/kg of ersodetug

  • Ambulatory IGF secreting tumor participants who receive SOC and 9 mg/kg of ersodetug Participants should continue to use pre-existing anti-hypoglycemic medications and anti-tumor therapies throughout the study.
