A phase 1 dose escalation and expansion study of Tarextumab (OMP-59R5) in patients with solid tumors.

ABSTRACT: Purpose This Phase I trial evaluated the maximum tolerated dose, safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary efficacy of tarextumab (OMP-5948), a novel cross-reactive antibody which binds and selectively inhibits signaling via both Notch2 and Notch3, in adult patients with advanced malignancies. Methods Standard 3 + 3 design with tarextumab 0.5, 1, 2.5, or 5 mg/kg weekly, or 5, 7.5, or 10 mg/kg every other week, or 7.5 mg every 3 weeks. Dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) were assessed during the first 28 days. Results Forty-two patients received tarextumab (21 weekly, 15 every other week, 6 every three weeks). 2/6 subjects at the 5 mg/kg weekly dose, 2/3 at 10 mg/kg every other week, and 0/6 at 7.5 mg/kg every three weeks had a DLT. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 2.5 mg/kg
