Background: CLR 131 is a novel targeted radiotherapeutic that exploits the selective uptake and retention of phospholipid ethers (PLEs) by malignant cells. Based on initial preclinical and clinical experience and the radiosensitivity of MM, fractionated dosing of CLR 131 is being examined in RRMM in a Phase 1 trial (NCT02278315) and a Phase 2 trial, CLOVER-1 (NCT02952508). Methods: Both the Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials of CLR 131 aim to determine efficacy and safety in RRMM. Eligibility criteria include progressive or relapsed MM that is refractory to at least 1 proteasome inhibitor (PI) and 1 immunomodulatory (IMiD) drug with no upper limit to the number of prior lines of therapy. Prior autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) and external beam radiation therapy are allowed (< 20% of total marrow irradiated). The Phase 1 trial was a single and fractionated ascending dose escalation safety study and the Phase 2 trial is evaluating 3 doses: a bolus dose and 2 fractionated doses. The fractionated doses of CLR 131 included infusion of either 31.25 mCi/m2 CLR 131 or 37.5 mCi/m2 CLR 131 (administered as 15.625 mCi/m2 or 18.75 mCi/m2, respectively, on day 1 and day 7 (± 1 day)) administered as a 30-minute intravenous infusion is reported here. Adverse events (AEs) are graded by NCI-CTCAE v4.03. Responses were determined using IMWG criteria as assessed by the investigator. Results: As of 30Jul2019, 10 subjects have received fractionated 31.25 mCi/m2 and 6 subjects fractionated 37.5 mCi/m2 CLR 131. In addition, 1 subject was scheduled to receive fractionated 37.5 mCi/m2 CLR 131 but died due to progressive disease prior to administration of the second dose; this subject is not included in the analyses below as they did not receive both fractionated doses. There is no upper age limit for enrollment and the median age for the 16 RRMM patients was 71 (range 51-83), including 6 females and 10 males with a median of 4 prior therapies (range 2 to 13). Seven patients had prior ASCT. CLR 131 demonstrated 100% disease control rate in subjects receiving either fractionated dose of CLR 131. The overall response rate (ORR) in the fractionated 37.5 mCi/m2 cohort is 50%. Three subjects in the cohort experienced a partial responses (PR), median time to response 43 days, and the other three had minimal responses (MR) with an average 39% reduction in m-protein. In this cohort, 80% of the subjects were either quad- or penta-refractory; all 80% were refractory to daratumumab. There were
