Raludotatug Deruxtecan, a CDH6-Targeting Antibody-Drug Conjugate with a DNA Topoisomerase I Inhibitor DXd, Is Efficacious in Human Ovarian and Kidney Cancer Models.

ABSTRACT: Cadherin-6 (CDH6) is expressed in several cancer types, but no CDH6-targeted therapy is currently clinically available. Here, we generated raludotatug deruxtecan (R-DXd; DS-6000), a novel CDH6-targeting antibody-drug conjugate with a potent DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor, and evaluated its properties, pharmacologic activities, and safety profile. In vitro pharmacologic activities and the mechanisms of action of R-DXd were assessed in serous-type ovarian cancer and renal cell carcinoma cell lines. In vivo pharmacologic activities were evaluated with several human cancer cell lines and patient-derived xenograft mouse models. The safety profile in cynomolgus monkeys was also assessed. R-DXd exhibited CDH6 expression-dependent cell growth-inhibitory activity and induced tumor regression in xenograft models. In this process, R-DXd specifically bound to CDH6, was internalized into cancer cells, and then translocated to the lysosome. The DXd released from R-DXd induced the phosphorylation of Chk1, a DNA damage marker, and cleaved caspase-3, an apoptosis marker, in cancer cells. It was also confirmed that the DXd payload had a bystander effect, passing through the cell membrane and impacting surrounding cells. The safety profile of R-DXd was favorable and the highest non-severely toxic dose was 30 mg/kg in cynomolgus monkeys. R-DXd demonstrated potent antitumor activity against CDH6-expressing tumors in mice and an acceptable safety profile in monkeys. These findings indicate the potential of R-DXd as a new treatment option for patients with CDH6-expressing serous-type ovarian cancer and renal cell carcinoma in a clinical setting.

Project description:PurposeHuman epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) is broadly expressed in breast cancer; high expression is associated with an adverse prognosis. Patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd) is an investigational HER3-targeted antibody-drug conjugate that is being evaluated as a novel treatment in HER3-expressing advanced breast cancer in the U31402-A-J101 study.MethodsAdults with disease progression on previous therapies were eligible. Patients in the dose-escalation, dose-finding, and dose-expansion parts received HER3-DXd 1.6-8.0 mg/kg intravenously once every 3 weeks or one of two alternative dosing regimens. In the dose-escalation part, the primary objectives were to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended dose for expansion (RDE). The safety and efficacy of the RDE were assessed during dose expansion.ResultsOne hundred eighty-two enrolled patients received ≥1 dose of HER3-DXd. Patients had a median of five previous therapies for advanced disease. Efficacy results are reported across clinical subtypes: hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-negative) breast cancer (n = 113; objective response rate [ORR], 30.1%; median progression-free survival [mPFS], 7.4 months), triple-negative breast cancer (n = 53; ORR, 22.6%; mPFS, 5.5 months), and HER2-positive breast cancer (n = 14; ORR, 42.9%; mPFS, 11.0 months). Objective responses were observed in cancers with HER3-high and HER3-low membrane expression. Dose-limiting toxicities observed during dose selection were decreased platelet count and elevated aminotransferases. In dose expansion, GI and hematologic toxicities were the most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) observed. Grade ≥3 TEAEs were observed in 71.4% of patients, and 9.9% discontinued treatment because of TEAEs. Three grade 3 and one grade 5 treatment-related interstitial lung disease events occurred.ConclusionHER3-DXd demonstrated a manageable safety profile and durable efficacy in heavily pretreated patients across clinical subtypes. These data warrant further evaluation of HER3-DXd in patients with HER3-expressing metastatic breast cancer.
