Penpulimab for Relapsed or Refractory Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma: A Multicenter, Single-Arm, Pivotal Phase I/II Trial (AK105-201).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Nearly all anti-PD-1 antibodies are of the IgG4 isotype, and thus possess residual FcR effector functions. Such anti-PD-1 antibodies are also associated with immune tolerance and escape due to instability of the CH3 domain and Fc-Fc interaction. In this trial, we examined the efficacy and safety of penpulimab, a novel IgG1 anti-PD-1 antibody that does not bind to the Fc receptor, in patients with refractory or relapsed classical Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R cHL).

Methods

Adult patients (≥18 years of age) with R/R cHL received 200 mg penpulimab once biweekly until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities for a maximum of 24 months. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) based on the Independent Radiology Review Committee per Lugano 2014 criteria. Sec
