Interventions
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST
[68Ga]Ga-DWJ155
Radioligand imaging agent
DRUG
[177Lu]Lu-DWJ155
Radioligand therapy
Primary outcome measures
Incidence and severity of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) of [177Lu]Lu-DWJ155
Time frame: Up to approximately 53 months
Incidence and severity of AEs and SAEs, including changes in laboratory values, vital signs, echocardiograms (ECGs), and imaging assessments qualifying and reported as AEs.
Incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of [177Lu]Lu-DWJ155
Time frame: Up to 6 weeks
A DLT is defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade ≥ 3 assessed as unrelated to disease, disease progression, inter-current illness/injury or concomitant medications that occurs within the first treatment cycle. Other clinically significant toxicities may be considered to be DLTs, even if not CTCAE grade 3 or higher.
Frequency of dose interruptions and reductions [177Lu]Lu-DWJ155
Time frame: 11 months
Number of participants with dose interruptions and/or reductions to assess the tolerability.
Dose intensity [177Lu]Lu-DWJ155
Time frame: 11 months
Dose intensity defined as the ratio of actual cumulative dose received and actual duration of exposure
Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria

- Advanced HR+/HER2-low breast cancer with disease progression after prior therapy in the advanced setting
- Advanced NSCLC without actionable genetic alterations (AGAs) with disease progression after prior therapy in the advanced setting
- Advanced NSCLC with AGAs who have received prior treatment

- Advanced NSCLC with AGAs, who have received prior treatment
- Advanced NSCLC without known AGAs who have received prior treatment.
- Advanced gastric/GEJ cancer with HER2 IHC 3+ or 2+ (ISH + or -), following disease progression after prior therapy in the advanced setting
- Advanced bladder cancer following disease progression after prior therapy in the advanced setting
- Measurable disease as determined by RECIST version 1.1.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
