Abstract Text | Background RO is a bispecific antibody-like fusion protein based on a trimeric 4-1BB ligand and a targeting Fab moiety recognizing fibroblast activation protein-α (FAP) abundantly expressed by cancer-associated fibroblasts in many tumors. Upon TCR/CD3 engagement, simultaneous binding of FAP and 4-1BB results in clustering and activation of T- and NK- cells at the tumor site, thereby leading to potent anti-tumor activity in a panel of preclinical models. Methods This is a 3-part FIH study: Part A and B explored the safety, PK, PD and anti-tumor activity to establish the recommended dose for expansion (RDE) into Part C of RO as single agent (SA) and in combination with ATZ, respectively. Part C assesses the efficacy and safety of the combination in selected, FAP positive tumors. Preliminary results of Part A/B are presented here, where patients (pts) were treated with RO weekly (QW) at escalated dose levels (DLs). Results Part A: 62 pts were treated at 13 DLs, range 5 – 2000 mg IV. Part B (plus ATZ 1200 mg Q3W): 39 pts at 8 DLs, 45 – 2000 mg IV. Serum exposure (Cmax; AUC) increased dose dependently, with evidence of non-linearity in elimination at lower doses, suggestive of target-mediated drug disposition (TMDD). In blood, expression of 4-1BB and release of soluble 4-1BB indicated T-cell activation and 4-1BB targeting. Paired tumor biopsies revealed strong accumulation of CD8+Ki67+ T-cells. Adverse events (AEs) were generally mild to moderate (i.e., G1-2) across both parts. Most common AEs ≥ G3 in Part A were asthenia (6.5%), AST elevation and pneumonia (each 4.8%), whereas pneumonia, pneumonitis (each 10.3%), neutro- and lymphocytopenia (each 7.7%) were most frequent in Part B. DLTs were febrile neutropenia G3 (45 mg), CRS G3 (130 mg) and pneumonitis G3 (500 mg plus ATZ); a MTD was not reached. Objective response rates were 3.6% (A) and 18.4% (B). Conclusions RO demonstrated an acceptable safety profile as SA and in combination with ATZ. PK and PD- effects were favorable and consistent with the antibody-like format and the postulated MoA, respectively. Preliminary anti-tumor activity supports further exploration of the combination in tumor-specific indications. |
