Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of GS-3583, a FLT3 agonist Fc fusion protein, from single-ascending-dose phase I study in healthy participants.

ABSTRACT: Conventional dendritic cells subtype 1 (cDC1) play a vital role in the priming and expansion of tumor-specific CD8+ T cells and their recruitment to tumor microenvironment. However, cDC1s are often underrepresented in the microenvironment. Systemic administration of Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand, a hematopoietic growth factor that binds to FLT3 on myeloid and lymphoid progenitor cells, leads to cDC1 expansion in the periphery and recruitment into the microenvironment. FLT3 pathway stimulation using GS-3583, a novel FLT3 agonistic Fc fusion protein, has the potential to promote T-cell mediated antitumor activity. This was a first-in-human, placebo-controlled study of GS-3583 in healthy participants to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamic (PD) of escalating sin
