Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Radiopharm Theranostics Ltd (RADX) reported positive initial results from a Phase 1 imaging trial of its radiopharmaceutical candidate RAD301 in healthy volunteers and patients with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma. RAD301 targets the αvβ6-integrin receptor using Gallium-68, aiming for more tumor-specific imaging in pancreatic cancer.

The trial showed a favorable safety profile and significant, selective tumor uptake in pancreatic cancer metastases, with low background uptake in liver, lung and bowel, which are common metastatic sites. These data support continued clinical development of RAD301, including a potential Phase 2 imaging trial, and reinforce αvβ6-integrin as a promising diagnostic and therapeutic target. RAD301 has previously received FDA Orphan Drug Designation.

Positive

  • RAD301 Phase 1 trial shows favorable safety and significant, selective tumor uptake in pancreatic cancer metastases, with low background signal in common metastatic organs, supporting further clinical development and potential Phase 2 imaging studies.

Negative

  • None.

Phase 1 imaging trial 1 trial Phase 1 imaging trial of RAD301 in healthy volunteers and PDAC patients
Orphan Drug Designation 1 designation RAD301 has received FDA Orphan Drug Designation
Clinical pipeline trials 1 Phase 2 and 5 Phase 1 trials Company-wide clinical program in various solid tumor cancers
Announcement date September 8, 2026 Date of positive RAD301 Phase 1 data announcement in Sydney, Australia
biodistribution medical
"designed to evaluate the safety, biodistribution and dosimetry of RAD301"
Biodistribution is the map of where a drug, vaccine, or diagnostic agent travels and accumulates inside the body after administration. Investors care because where a product ends up affects how well it works, what side effects it may cause, and whether regulators will approve it—similar to tracking dye in a plumbing system to find leaks or blockages; unexpected destinations can raise safety, cost, and market-adoption risks.
dosimetry medical
"designed to evaluate the safety, biodistribution and dosimetry of RAD301"
Dosimetry is the measurement and calculation of how much ionizing radiation is absorbed by people, tissues, or devices, similar to a thermostat tracking temperature in different rooms to know where and how much heat is present. Investors should care because accurate dosimetry underpins safety, treatment effectiveness, regulatory approval, and liability for products and services that use radiation—affecting market access, costs, and commercial risk.
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma medical
"subjects with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC)"
A fast-growing cancer that starts in the cells lining the pancreas’ small ducts; it is the most common and aggressive form of pancreatic cancer. It matters to investors because its severity and limited treatment options drive high unmet medical need, large potential markets for effective drugs or diagnostics, and strong sensitivity of company valuations to clinical trial results, regulatory approvals, or changes in treatment guidelines—similar to how fixing a main leak can prevent major damage in a building.
αvβ6-integrin medical
"RAD301 ... targets αvβ6-integrin, a cellular marker for tumor invasion"
A cell-surface receptor made of two protein subunits, alpha-v and beta-6, that helps cells stick to their surroundings and send signals; think of it as a specific lock on some cells’ surfaces. It matters to investors because αvβ6-integrin is often increased in certain cancers and fibrotic diseases, so drugs or diagnostics that target it can be the basis for clinical trials, patents, partnerships, and potential commercial products.
Orphan Drug Designation regulatory
"RAD 301 has previously received Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) from the FDA"
Orphan drug designation is a special status given to medicines developed to treat rare diseases affecting only a small number of people. This status often provides benefits like faster approval processes and financial incentives, making it more attractive for companies to develop these drugs. For investors, it signals potential for exclusive market rights and reduced competition, which can impact the drug’s profitability.
theranostic medical
"potentially as a theranostic pair"
A theranostic is a single medical approach or agent that combines diagnosis and treatment—using a test or imaging step to find patients likely to benefit, then delivering a targeted therapy tied to that same marker. For investors, theranostics can speed development, lower the chance of failed trials and concentrate sales on the right patients, like a smart key that both locates the correct lock and opens it, potentially improving clinical and commercial success.

Radiopharm Theranostics Announces Positive Data from the Phase 1 Imaging Trial of RAD301 in Patients with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

 

Positive safety and favourable biodistribution seen in all subjects dosed

 

Imaging data in all evaluable pancreatic cancer patients demonstrated significant tumor uptake

 

Data support the targeting potential of RAD301 and continuation of its clinical development

 

Sydney, Australia – 8 September 2026 – Radiopharm Theranostics (ASX: RAD, Nasdaq: RADX, “Radiopharm” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative oncology radiopharmaceuticals for areas of high unmet medical need, today announced positive data from the Phase 1 imaging trial designed to evaluate the safety, biodistribution and dosimetry of RAD301 in healthy volunteers and subjects with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

 

RAD301 is a peptide-based molecule bound to Gallium-68 (Ga-68) that targets αvβ6-integrin, a cellular marker for tumor invasion and metastatic growth, the expression of which correlates with decreased survival in several carcinomas. The αvβ6-integrin receptor is found in high density on most pancreatic carcinoma cells, making it an attractive diagnostic and therapeutic target. RAD 301 has previously received Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) from the FDA.

 

“These data are an important step forward for patients suffering from advanced pancreatic cancer, as RAD301 has demonstrated significant and selective tumor uptake in metastatic lesions,” said Riccardo Canevari, CEO and Managing Director of Radiopharm Theranostics. “Given the limited imaging and treatment options available for patients with PDAC, these findings highlight the potential role of RAD301 in improving disease detection, patient selection, and future theranostic applications. Pancreatic cancer remains a challenging disease to image, and conventional approaches such as FDG PET are limited by variable tumor biology and non-specific uptake. The results from this Phase 1 study support the potential of αvβ6-integrin-targeted imaging to provide a more tumor-specific approach to detecting pancreatic cancer, further supporting the advancement of RAD 301 into Phase 2 development.”

 

Data from the Phase 1 trial of RAD301 demonstrated a favorable safety profile in all evaluable participants. Additionally, RAD301 had favorable biodistribution along with significant tumor uptake in pancreatic cancer metastases, consistent with initial results from the first five patients evaluated. The results showed significant and selective tumor uptake in pancreatic cancer metastases, which supports the potential of αvβ6-integrin as a target for future therapeutic development and potentially as a theranostic pair.. Importantly, the low background uptake observed in liver, lung and bowel — the sites where pancreatic cancer most often spreads — supports the potential of RAD301 to distinguish metastatic lesions from surrounding normal tissue. The unmet medical need in the earlier stages of disease and the high mortality of the disease provide a rationale for a future Phase 2 imaging trial of RAD301.
