A Phase I, Multicenter, Open-Label, First-in-Human Study of DS-6157a in Patients with Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate DS-6157a, an antibody-drug conjugate targeting G protein-coupled receptor 20 (GPR20), in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).

Patients and methods

In this phase I multicenter, open-label, multiple-dose study, patients with previously treated advanced GIST received intravenous DS-6157a on Day 1 of 21-day cycles, with a starting dose of 1.6 mg/kg. The primary objective evaluated the safety and tolerability of DS-6157a, while determining dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and the MTD. Secondary objectives included plasma pharmacokinetics parameters, plasma antidrug antibodies (ADA), and efficacy.

Results

A total of 34 patients enrolled. DS-6157a was well tolerated, with DLTs in 4 patients (11.8%) at doses of 6.4 mg/kg, 9.6 mg/kg, and 12.8 mg/kg; the MTD was determined to be 6.4 mg/kg. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) grade ≥3 occurred in 17 patients (50.0%), including decreased platelet count (23.5%), anemia (20.6%), decreased neutrophil count (14.7%), and decreased white blood cell count (11.8%). Four patients (11.8%) experienced serious adverse events related to DS-6157a. Six patients died with 5 due to disease progression and 1 due to DS-6157a-related TEAE. Tumor shrinkage was observed in 7 patients (20.6%), and 1 patient (2.9%) achieved a partial response. Plasma concentrations and exposure of intact DS-6157a, DXd, and total anti-GPR20 antibody all demonstrated a dose-dependent profile. No treatment-emergent ADAs were observed.

Conclusions

Targeting GPR20 with DS-6157a was tolerated in patients with advanced GIST with tumor shrinkage demonstrated in KIT/PDGFRA wild-type GIST. However, the study did not proceed further due to lower efficacy outcomes than anticipated.

Project description:PurposeSunitinib, a multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), is approved for advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) after imatinib failure. Ripretinib is a switch-control TKI approved for advanced GIST after prior treatment with three or more TKIs, including imatinib. We compared efficacy and safety of ripretinib versus sunitinib in patients with advanced GIST who were previously treated with imatinib (INTRIGUE, ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03673501).Patients and methodsRandom assignment was 1:1 to once-daily ripretinib 150 mg or once-daily sunitinib 50 mg (4 weeks on/2 weeks off) and stratified by KIT/platelet-derived growth factor α mutation and imatinib intolerance. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) by independent radiologic review using modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Secondary end points included objective response rate by independent radiologic review, safety, and patient-reported outcome measures.ResultsOverall, 453 patients were randomly assigned to ripretinib (intention-to-treat [ITT], n = 226; KIT exon 11 ITT, n = 163) or sunitinib (ITT, n = 227; KIT exon 11 ITT, n = 164). Median PFS for ripretinib and sunitinib (KIT exon 11 ITT) was 8.3 and 7.0 months, respectively (hazard ratio, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.66 to 1.16; P = .36); median PFS (ITT) was 8.0 and 8.3 months, respectively (hazard ratio, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.82 to 1.33; nominal P = .72). Neither was statistically significant. Objective response rate was higher for ripretinib versus sunitinib in the KIT exon 11 ITT population (23.9% v 14.6%, nominal P = .03). Ripretinib was associated with a more favorable safety profile, fewer grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events (41.3% v 65.6%, nominal P < .0001), and better scores on patient-reported outcome measures of tolerability.ConclusionRipretinib was not superior to sunitinib in terms of PFS. However, meaningful clinical activity, fewer grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events, and improved tolerability were observed with ripretinib.

Project description:BackgroundMasitinib is a highly selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor with activity against the main oncogenic drivers of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Masitinib was evaluated in patients with advanced GIST after imatinib failure or intolerance.Patients and methodsProspective, multicenter, randomized, open-label trial. Patients with inoperable, advanced imatinib-resistant GIST were randomized (1 : 1) to receive masitinib (12 mg/kg/day) or sunitinib (50 mg/day 4-weeks-on/2-weeks-off) until progression, intolerance, or refusal. Primary efficacy analysis was noncomparative, testing whether masitinib attained a median progression-free survival (PFS) (blind centrally reviewed RECIST) threshold of >3 months according to the lower bound of the 90% unilateral confidence interval (CI). Secondary analyses on overall survival (OS) and PFS were comparative with results presented according to a two-sided 95% CI.ResultsForty-four patients were randomized to receive masitinib (n = 23) or sunitinib (n = 21). Median follow-up was 14 months. Patients receiving masitinib experienced less toxicity than those receiving sunitinib, with significantly lower occurrence of severe adverse events (52% versus 91%, respectively, P = 0.008). Median PFS (central RECIST) for the noncomparative primary analysis in the masitinib treatment arm was 3.71 months (90% CI 3.65). Secondary analyses showed that median OS was significantly longer for patients receiving masitinib followed by post-progression addition of sunitinib when compared against patients treated directly with sunitinib in second-line [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.27, 95% CI 0.09-0.85, P = 0.016]. This improvement was sustainable as evidenced by 26-month follow-up OS data (HR = 0.40, 95% CI 0.16-0.96, P = 0.033); an additional 12.4 months survival advantage being reported for the masitinib treatment arm. Risk of progression while under treatment with masitinib was in the same range as for sunitinib (HR = 1.1, 95% CI 0.6-2.2, P = 0.833).ConclusionsPrimary efficacy analysis ensured the masitinib treatment arm could satisfy a prespecified PFS threshold. Secondary efficacy analysis showed that masitinib followed by the standard of care generated a statistically significant survival benefit over standard of care. Encouraging median OS and safety data from this well-controlled and appropriately designed randomized trial indicate a positive benefit-risk ratio. Further development of masitinib in imatinib-resistant/intolerant patients with advanced GIST is warranted.

Project description:BackgroundATOR-1017 (evunzekibart) is a human agonistic immunoglobulin G4 antibody targeting the costimulatory receptor 4-1BB (CD137). ATOR-1017 activates T cells and natural killer cells in the tumor environment, leading to immune-mediated tumor cell death.MethodsIn this first-in-human, multicenter, phase I study, ATOR-1017 was administered intravenously every 21 days as a monotherapy to patients with advanced, unresectable solid tumors having received multiple standard-of-care treatments. The study used single patient cohorts for rapid dose escalation up to 40 mg; thereafter a modified 3+3 design up to 900 mg. Escalating doses were given until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary objective of the study included determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) via assessment of adverse events and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). Secondary objectives included determination of the pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and clinical efficacy assessed with CT scans using immune Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors. Exploratory objectives included pharmacodynamic (PD) assessment of immune system biomarkers.ResultsOf the 27 patients screened, 25 received treatment with ATOR-1017. The median time on study was 13.1 weeks (range 4.3-92.3). The MTD of ATOR-1017 was not reached. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were reported in 13 (52%) of 25 patients; most common (≥10%) were fatigue (n=4 (16.0%) patients) and neutropenia (n=3 (12.0%) patients). Five patients experienced a severe (≥ grade 3) TRAE; neutropenia (n=2), febrile neutropenia (n=1), chest pain (n=1), increased liver enzymes (n=1), and leukopenia and thrombocytopenia (n=1). No patients discontinued due to TRAEs and no DLTs were observed. Pharmacokinetic data demonstrated approximate dose-proportional kinetics. Dose-dependent increases in PD biomarkers, including soluble 4-1BB, are indicative of target-mediated biological activity. Best response was stable disease in 13 out of 25 patients (52%), maintained for 6 months or longer in six patients (24%).ConclusionsTreatment with ATOR-1017 was safe and well tolerated at all dose levels and demonstrated biological activity. Furthermore, almost one-third of patients experienced long-lasting stable disease in this heavily pretreated population. The encouraging safety and preliminary efficacy data warrant further clinical development of ATOR-1017, possibly in combination with other anticancer agents.

Project description:BackgroundWilms' tumor 1 (WT1) is overexpressed in various malignancies. DSP-7888 Dosing Emulsion, also known as ombipepimut-S (United States Adopted Name; International Nonproprietary Name: adegramotide/nelatimotide), is an investigational therapeutic cancer vaccine comprising two synthetic peptides derived from WT1 to promote both cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) and helper T-lymphocyte-mediated immune responses against WT1-expressing tumors.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to report the results from a phase I dose-escalation study (NCT02498665) that evaluated DSP-7888, administered either intradermally (ID) or subcutaneously (SC), in patients with recurrent or advanced malignancies associated with overexpression of WT1.Patients and methodsIn this phase I dose-escalation study, patients with recurrent or advanced malignancies associated with overexpression of WT1 who progressed on, were intolerant to, or not a candidate for standard therapy or who presented with a malignancy that had no definite standard therapy received escalating doses of ID or SC DSP-7888 in a rolling-six study design. DSP-7888 3.5, 10.5, or 17.5 (ID only) mg was administered until disease progression or other discontinuation event. Primary objectives were safety, tolerability, and identification of the recommended phase II dose (RP2D). Overall survival (OS) and WT1-specific CTL induction were included as secondary and exploratory objectives, respectively.ResultsTwenty-four patients received either ID (3.5 mg, n = 4; 10.5 mg, n = 3; 17.5 mg, n = 3) or SC DSP-7888 (3.5 mg, n = 9; 10.5 mg, n = 5). No dose-limiting toxicity was observed. The most frequent treatment-emergent adverse event was injection site reactions (ID, 100% [10/10]; SC, 35.7% [5/14]); all were grade 1 or 2. Four patients (ID 17.5 mg, n = 1; SC 3.5 mg, n = 1; SC 10.5 mg, n = 2) had stable disease, 16 had progressive disease, and four were not evaluable. Median (95% confidence interval) OS duration was 180.0 (136.0-494.0) days. Among evaluable patients, WT1-specific CTL induction was observed in 66.7% (6/9) and 41.7% (5/12) of those administered ID and SC DSP-7888, respectively.ConclusionsDSP-7888 Dosing Emulsion was well tolerated, with no dose-limiting toxicities, in patients with recurrent or advanced malignancies. Higher WT1-specific CTL induction activity was noted with ID compared with SC administration; because of this, the ID route was selected for further evaluation in the clinical program.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02498665.
