First-in-human phase 1 study of the ICOS agonist feladilimab on patients with advanced solid tumors.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Inducible costimulator (ICOS) receptor belongs to the CD28/CTLA immunoglobulin super family, whose expression is restricted to T cells and is weakly expressed on resting TH17, follicular helper T cells, and regulatory T cells, but is highly induced on CD4+ and CD8+ T cells on activation by T-cell receptors. ICOS stimulation downstream effects include activation of conventional CD4+cells and cytotoxic CD8+cells, resulting in a durable antitumor response in preclinical models.

Methods

As part of a larger first-in-human study (GSK Study 204691), this study focused on 2 cohorts of 25 and 67 participants enrolled in a dose escalation and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) analysis of the ICOS agonist feladilimab (GSK3359609) as monotherapy. For these cohorts, the
