Interventions
DRUG
89Zr-DFO-SC16.56
Injection of 2 mCi of 89Zr-DFO-SC16.56 for Phase I participants. Dose for Phase II will be determined by results from Phase I.
DRUG
SC16.56, Phase I, Cohort 2
7.5mg
DRUG
SC16.56, Phase I, Cohort 3
22.5mg
DRUG
SC16.56, Phase II
Dose for Phase II will be determined by results from Phase I.
Primary outcome measures
Phase I: Radiation Dosimetry of 89Zr- DFO-SC16.56 PET/CT imaging in participants
Time frame: Up to 12 months
The PET and blood data are used to quantify tracer-biodistribution, measuring the amount of radioactivity present in the blood and bodily regions-of-interest
Phase I: Safety of 89Zr- DFO-SC16.56 PET/CT imaging in cancer patients by evaluating toxicities
Time frame: up to 12 months
89Zr- DFO-SC16.56 PET/CT will be considered safe if there are no possibly probably, or definitely related grade 3 or higher toxicities (except allergic reactions) among the patients enrolled in the phase I portion
Phase II: Correlation between tumor uptake of 89Zr- DFO-SC16.56 with expression of DLL3
Time frame: Up to 12 months
This is determined by immunohistochemistry and quantitative mass spectrometry.
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
- Subject Inclusion Criteria for Adult population
- Signed, informed consent
- Age 18 or more years
- Histologically confirmed, SCLC, (newly diagnosed or recurrent); small cell carcinoma of unknown or non-lung origin; or other types of neuroendocrine tumor OR Histologically confirmed prostate cancer, with suspected or confirmed NEPC based upon clinical assays obtained prior to the trial OR Histologically confirmed or suspected primary brain neoplasm OR Desmoplastic small round cell tumors, osteosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma, rabdomyosarcoma, Wilms tumors, hepatoblastomas, rhabdoid tumors and neuroblastoma patients
- At least one tumor lesion on CT2 or MRI ≥ 0.8 cm OR
- Tumor detectable FDG PET, PSMA PET, DOTATATE PET, MIBG SPECT (or planar MIBG scan if SPECT unavailable) OR
- MRI or bone scan that shows new osseous metastases. The scans should have been obtained in the last 12 weeks
- ECOG performance status 0 to 2
- Negative serum pregnancy test within 2 weeks of 89Zr-DFO-SC16.56 for women of child-bearing potential
- Available archival tumor specimen suitable for DLL3 IHC or clinician already has plans to obtain tumor specimen as part of standard of care (unrelated to patient participation in 19-292) which will yield sufficient tumor specimen to allow for DLL3 IHC
- For the prostate cancer patient cohort, as an alternative if archival tissue is not available, patients must be willing to undergo PET/CT guided biopsy3 as described in section 9.3.
- Patients with SCLC will be the primary study population, however patients with other types of neuroendocrine tumors may be included at the PI's discretion.
- Criterion is intended to demonstrate presence of imageable disease. A low-dose CT (e.g. from a PET/CT scan) may be used at PI's discretion.
- While willingness to undergo the biopsy is required if archival tissue is not available, PET/CT guided biopsy is not a mandatory study assessment. As described in section 9.3, the guided biopsy may be waived at the discretion of the principal investigator if the DLL3 PET/CT reveals no sites of DLL3 tracer-avid tumor or if the principal investigator deems itis not in the best interest of the patient, according to best clinical judgement. The pediatric population would not be approached for an optional PET/CT-guided biopsy Subject Inclusion Criteria for Pediatric population
- Signed, informed consent
- Age 4 or more years
- High risk neuroblastoma patients
- At least one tumor lesion on CT2 or MRI ≥ 0.8 cm OR Tumor detectable FDG PET, PSMA PET, DOTATATE PET, MIBG SPECT (or planar MIBG scan if SPECT unavailable) OR MRI or bone scan that shows new osseous metastases. The scans should have been obtained in the last 12 weeks
- ECOG performance status 0 to 2
- Performance Status: Subjects must have a Lansky (\<16 years) of at least 40
- Negative serum pregnancy test within 2 weeks of 89Zr-DFO-SC16.56 for women of child-bearing potential

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.
