Disitamab vedotin, a HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugate, in patients with HER2-overexpression and HER2-low advanced breast cancer: a phase I/Ib study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Disitamab vedotin (DV; RC48-ADC) is an antibody-drug conjugate comprising a human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-directed antibody, linker and monomethyl auristatin E. Preclinical studies have shown that DV demonstrated potent antitumor activity in preclinical models of breast, gastric, and ovarian cancers with different levels of HER2 expression. In this pooled analysis, we report the safety and efficacy of DV in patients with HER2-overexpression and HER2-low advanced breast cancer (ABC).

Methods

In the phase I dose-escalation study (C001 CANCER), HER2-overexpression ABC patients received DV at doses of 0.5-2.5 mg/kg once every two weeks (Q2W) until unacceptable toxicity or progressive disease. The dose range, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) were determined. The phase Ib dose-range and expansion study (C003 CANCER) enrolled two cohorts: HER2-overexpression ABC patients receiving DV at doses of 1.5-2.5 mg/kg Q2W, with the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) determined, and HER2-low ABC patients receiving DV at doses of 2.0 mg/kg Q2W to explore the efficacy and safety of DV in HER2-low ABC.

Results

Twenty-four patients with HER2-overexpression ABC in C001 CANCER, 46 patients with HER2-overexpression ABC and 66 patients with HER2-low ABC in C003 CANCER were enrolled. At 2.0 mg/kg RP2D Q2W, the confirmed objective response rates were 42.9% (9/21; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 21.8%-66.0%) and 33.3% (22/66; 95% CI: 22.2%-46.0%), with median progression-free survival (PFS) of 5.7 months (95% CI: 5.3-8.4 months) and 5.1 months (95% CI: 4.1-6.6 months) for HER2-overexpression and HER2-low ABC, respectively. Common (≥5%) grade 3 or higher treatment-emergent adverse events included neutrophil count decreased (17.6%), gamma-glutamyl transferase increased (13.2%), asthenia (11.0%), white blood cell count decreased (9.6%), peripheral neuropathy such as hypoesthesia (5.9%) and neurotoxicity (0.7%), and pain (5.9%).

Conclusion

DV demonstrated promising efficacy in HER2-overexpression and HER2-low ABC, with a favorable safety profile at 2.0 mg/kg Q2W.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough the antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have significantly improved the survival outcomes of patients with human epidermal receptor 2 (HER2)-expressing gastric or gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer, the efficacy of ADC used as a single agent is limited. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate effective and safe combination regimens. Preclinical data indicated a synergetic antitumour effect of RC48 and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RC48 plus toripalimab in patients with HER2-expressing G/GEJ cancer and other solid tumours.MethodsThis was a open-label, multicentre, phase 1 trial performed at three hospitals in China. Eligible patients had advanced G/GEJ cancer or other solid tumours with HER2 IHC≥1 or ISH positivity and were refractory to at least one line of treatment, or standard treatment was intolerable or unavailable for these patients. This study followed a "3 + 3" design with predefined RC48 dosages of 2.0 mg/kg and 2.5 mg/kg plus toripalimab 3 mg/kg, once every 2 weeks (q2w). The primary objectives were to evaluate the safety and determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D), and the secondary objectives included assessing the pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary efficacy. This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04280341.FindingsBetween July 13, 2020 and August 30, 2022, 56 patients, including 30 patients with G/GEJ cancer and 26 patients with other solid tumours, were enrolled and received RC48 plus toripalimab (n = 7 for RC48 2.0 mg/kg, toripalimab 3 mg/kg, q2w; n = 49 for RC48 2.5 mg/kg, toripalimab 3 mg/kg, q2w). No dose-limiting toxic effects occurred. The RP2D was declared as RC48 2.5 mg/kg plus toripalimab 3 mg/kg, q2w. The most common grade 3 adverse events were a decreased neutrophil count (n = 13), and a decreased white blood cell count (n = 7). The efficacy assessment was completed for 52 patients. Among patients with G/GEJ cancer (n = 30), the confirmed objective response rate (ORR) was 43% (12/28, 95% CI 25, 63), median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.2 months (95% CI 4.0, 6.9), median overall survival (OS) was 16.8 months (95% CI 7.2, NE). The ORR of patients with G/GEJ cancer receiving RP2D (n = 24) reached 50% (11/22, 95% CI 28, 72), with median PFS of 5.1 months (95% CI 1.4, 7.3) and median OS of 14.0 months (95% CI 6.3, NE). Among patients with G/GEJ cancer who received RP2D, a clinical benefit was observed in both HER2-positive and low HER2 expressing populations, with an ORR of 56% (5/9, 95% CI 21, 86) vs. 46% (6/13, 95% CI 19, 75), median PFS of 7.8 months (95% CI 0.9, NE) vs. 5.1 months (95% CI 1.2, 6.9), median OS of NE months (95% CI 4.3, NE) vs. 14.0 months (95% CI 5.1, NE), respectively. Antitumour activity was also observed for other solid tumours, including breast cancer (5/13) and endometrial carcinoma (1/1).InterpretationOur findings suggested that RC48 plus toripalimab had a manageable safety profile and showed encouraging efficacy in pretreated patients with HER2-positive and low HER2-expressing G/GEJ cancer. The findings of our phase 1 clinical trial support further investigation of HER2-targeted ADC plus immunotherapy in HER2-expressing G/GEJ cancer and pancancer treatment in the future.FundingBeijing Municipal Medical Research Institutes, Beijing Medical Research Institute (Z200015).
