Radiopharm Theranostics Receives FDA IND Approval for Phase 2b Imaging Trial in Brain Metastases
Radiopharm Theranostics (ASX:RAD, “Radiopharm” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative oncology radiopharmaceuticals for areas of high unmet medical need, is pleased to announce that it has received clearance for its Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for F18-Pivalate (RAD 101).
Pivalate, labelled with the radioisotope F18, is a small molecule that selectively targets fatty acid synthetase, which is overexpressed in brain tumours but not in normal cells. Pivalate is a novel proprietary imaging agent under clinical investigation for the detection and characterisation of brain metastases.
The IND approval is a clear recognition by the FDA of clinical data already generated for RAD 101 and is a significant milestone towards starting a Phase 2b multi-center trial for the imaging of brain metastases. Radiopharm anticipates having the first patient dosed during the fourth quarter of 2024. Based on current enrolment expectations, the 30-patient Phase 2b read-out is expected by mid-2025 and will be followed by a Phase 3 registrational study.
Previously reported positive data from the Imperial College of London’s Phase 2a imaging trial of Pivalate in 17 patients with brain metastases showed significant tumour uptake that was consistent with and independent from the tumour of origin¹. This supports the potential use of pivalate to monitor brain metastases.
“Pivalate represents a potential new target for radiopharmaceutical brain imaging agents, and its unique mechanism of action may offer eligible patients and the medical community an alternative to overcome the limitations of current standard of care for imaging brain metastasis.” said Riccardo Canevari, CEO and Managing Director of Radiopharm Theranostics. “We are very pleased by this FDA approval as it allows us to commence late-stage clinical studies and address the high unmet medical need in around 300,000 patients that are diagnosed with brain metastases in the U.S. every year.”
Radiopharm holds an exclusive global license for the pivalate platform technology and has a collaboration in place with Imperial College of London to develop a therapeutic candidate leveraging the same mechanism of action.

Overview
Radiopharm Theranostics (ASX:RAD) is an innovative biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of radiopharmaceutical products for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Founded with a mission to address significant unmet medical needs, particularly in oncology, the company has positioned itself at the forefront of the rapidly evolving field of precision medicine.
Radiopharm Theranostics presents a compelling value proposition for investors, characterized by several key factors:
- Strategic Partnerships
- Lantheus’ strategic investment in Radiopharm Theranostics, committing up to AU$18 million, strengthens Radiopharm's financial position and supports the advancement of its projects.
- Radiopharm owns 75 percent interest in Radiopharm Ventures, a joint venture created with The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, to develop novel radiopharmaceutical products for cancer treatment.
- Market Positioning: Radiopharm is strategically positioned to capture a significant share of the expanding theranostics market.
- Diverse Product Pipeline: The company boasts a robust pipeline of radiopharmaceutical products targeting various oncological diseases, which diversifies risk and increases potential revenue streams.
- Innovative Technology: Radiopharm's focus on leveraging technological advancements in radiopharmaceuticals, particularly in treating oncological diseases, positions it at the cutting edge of medical innovation.
Lantheus’ investment in Radiopharm marks a pivotal moment for both companies and holds substantial implications for the field of theranostics. The funding will facilitate Radiopharm's research and development efforts, accelerating its product pipeline and market presence. Under the agreement, Radiopharm will transfer two early preclinical assets to Lantheus for a further AU$3 million, fostering a collaborative relationship focused on radiopharmaceutical development. The collaboration positions Radiopharm to capitalize on the increasing demand for theranostic solutions, aligning with trends in personalized medicine. Moreover, this financial backing will support clinical trials and operational needs, while also aiming for the commercialization of their products.
Company Highlights
- Radiopharm Theranostics is focused on developing and commercializing radiopharmaceutical products and nuclear medicines for both therapeutic and diagnostic applications in precision oncology.
- Radiopharm has four licensed platform technologies – nanobody, peptide, small molecules and monoclonal antibodies (mAb) – with diagnostic and therapeutic applications in both pre-clinical and clinical stages of development.
- The company has received clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration for an investigational new drug application with two INDs (one for RAD 301 and one for RAD 101). Phase 1 for RAD 301 and for RAD 204 is in progress.
- The company aims to commercialize its pipeline for possible licensing and distribution agreements and has secured four platform technologies, which it is seeking to develop for the diagnosis and treatment of certain cancers.
- Radiopharm owns 75 percent interest in Radiopharm Ventures, a joint venture created with The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
Technology and Clinical Pipeline
Radiopharm has four licensed platform technologies – nanobody, peptide, small molecules and monoclonal antibodies (mAb) – with diagnostic and therapeutic applications in both pre-clinical and clinical stages of development.
Radiopharm’s clinical stage development in the pipeline include:
- PD-L1 (non-small cell lung cancer indication) - currently in phase 1 in Australia;
- HER2 (breast/gastric cancer indication) - will begin phase 1 trials this year;
- Integrin VB6 (pancreatic cancer indication) - now in Phase I imaging in pancreatic cancer.
- Fatty Acid Synthase (brain METS indication) - preclinical has been completed and with IND approval for Phase IIb Imaging
The company recently received FDA approval for its investigational new drug application for 18-Pivalate (RAD 101). Labelled with the radioisotope F18, Pivalate is a small molecule that targets fatty acids synthase, which is overexpressed in brain tumours but not in normal cells.
Positive data from the company’s Phase 2 imaging trial of 17 patients with brain metastases has shown significant tumour uptake. Radiopharm holds an exclusive global license for the Pivalate platform.
Radiopharm highlights that Pivalate is potentially a new target for radiopharmaceutical brain imaging agents, and its unique mechanism of action may offer eligible patients a better option in relation to current imaging technology, which has many limitations.

Some locations are also carrying Tropical Flow , the recently announced limited-edition flavour of CWENCH Hydration™ created as part of Cizzle Brands' collaboration with Canadian youth hockey influencer Coach Chippy .
This placement further solidifies the presence of CWENCH Hydration™ in Canadian gas stations, with Cizzle Brands having recently announced that the beverage is being sold at MacEwan's, a 54-location chain of gas stations in Ontario and Quebec. To strategically scale the footprint of CWENCH Hydration™, Cizzle Brands has also placed CWENCH Hydration™ into Canadian grocery chains including Fortinos and Metro .
Cizzle Brands Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer, John Celenza commented, "As awareness of CWENCH Hydration™ continues to grow across the country, so does demand at the retail level. We are therefore proud to be adding CWENCH Hydration™ to the refrigerators of Canco, who has a strong presence in Western Canada along with multiple other provinces. The full range of CWENCH flavours will be sold in all 138 Canco locations across Canada, and this footprint is an important part of our playbook as we continue commercializing the product throughout North America. We are excited to be working with Canco, who we believe will be a valuable partner for CWENCH Hydration™ and our long-term growth plan for the Company, and their strong presence in Western Canada is an important part of our playbook as we commercialize the product across the country."
