An Open-Label, Multicenter, Phase 2 Study of CLR 131 in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory (R/R) Select B-Cell Malignancies (CLOVER-1)

This study evaluates CLR 131 in patients with select B-cell malignancies (multiple myeloma(
MM), indolent chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL),
lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL),
and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who have been previously treated with standard
therapy for their underlying malignancy.

B-cell malignancies represent a diverse collection of diseases and, taken together, make up
the majority of hematologic malignancies. B-cell lymphomas represent the largest percentage
of these neoplasms, and the relapsed and/or refractory B-cell lymphomas have proven very
difficult to treat. Success rate, defined as complete or partial response, is as low as 2% to
4% in many of these diseases, and they remain an area of a significant unmet medical need.

CLR 131 is a radioiodinated therapeutic that exploits the selective uptake and retention of
phospholipid ethers (PLEs) by malignant cells. Cellectar Biosciences' novel cancer-targeted
small-molecule compound (CLR1404) is radiolabeled with the isotope iodine-131 (I-131).
Radioiodinated CLR1404 has been evaluated in over 60 xenograft and spontaneous (transgenic)
tumor models. In all but two cases of hepatocellular carcinoma, CLR1404 demonstrated
selective cancer cell uptake and retention. In various rodent tumor models, CLR 131 has also
demonstrated tumor growth delay and prolongation of survival.

Based on the critical unmet medical need for effective agents with novel mechanisms of action
in B-cell malignancies, the radiosensitivity of these cancers, and initial preclinical and
clinical experience with radioiodinated CLR1404, Cellectar Biosciences has chosen to assess
CLR 131 in a phase 2 trial.

during the study and for 12 months following administration of the study drug

Patients with Multiple Myeloma

- At least 2 prior regimens, which must include at least 1 approved proteasome inhibitor
(bortezomib, carfilzomib, or ixazomib) and at least 1 approved immunomodulatory agent
(thalidomide, lenalidomide, or pomalidomide), with or without maintenance therapy,
unless patients are intolerable to such agents or ineligible to receive such agents.

- Progressive disease defined by any of the following:

- 25% increase in serum M-protein from the lowest response value during (or after)
last therapy and/or absolute increase in serum M-protein of ≥ 0.5 g/dL

- 25% increase in urine M-protein from the lowest response value during (or after)
last therapy and/or absolute increase in urine M-protein of ≥ 200 mg/24 h

- 25% increase in bone marrow plasma cell percentage from the lowest response value
during (or after) last therapy. Absolute bone marrow plasma cell percentage must
be ≥ 10% unless prior CR when absolute bone marrow plasma cell percentage must be
≥ 5%.

- 25% increase in serum FLC level from the lowest response value during (or after)
last therapy; the absolute increase must be > 10 mg/dL

- New onset hypercalcemia > 11.5 mg/dL
