Tumor-localized CD40 agonism with MP0317, an FAPxCD40 DARPin, reprograms the tumor microenvironment - results of a Phase 1 monotherapy study

ABSTRACT: This Phase 1 dose-escalation study evaluated MP0317 (FAP x CD40 DARPin) in adults with advanced solid tumors (n=46; 0.03–10 mg/kg IV weekly or every-3-weeks). Primary outcome measure was safety; secondary/exploratory outcome measures included antitumor activity, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Most treatment-related adverse events were of Grade 1–2 (95%) and a maximum tolerated dose was not reached. One patient achieved an unconfirmed partial response and 14 patients stable disease. MP0317 serum pharmacokinetics confirmed extended half-life properties; terminal half-life estimates increased with dose and ranged from 21.8–120 hours. Paired tumor biopsies confirmed colocalization of MP0317 with FAP and CD40. Activation of the CD40 pathway in the tumor microenvironment was shown by increased infiltration of antigen-presenting, plasma, and T follicular helper cells, dendritic cell maturation, IFN signaling, and circulating immune markers. Collectively, these data confirm a favorable safety profile for MP0317 and support further clinical evaluation in combination with complementary immunotherapies.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Preclinical studies have demonstrated that pharmacological mobilization and recruitment of endogenous bone marrow stem cells and immunoregulatory cells by a combination of plerixafor and low-dose tacrolimus (MRG-001) improves wound healing, promotes tissue regeneration and prevents allograft rejection. This first‐in‐human phase I dose‐escalation study evaluates the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of MRG-001, a novel fixed-dose combination drug. METHODS: In this Phase 1, double‐blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study, multiple ascending dose (MAD) cohorts are randomized to receive MRG-001 containing up to 0.02 mL/kg (plerixafor 24 mg/mL and tacrolimus 0.5 mg/mL) or saline placebo, subcutaneously every other day (SC, QAD) for 5 days (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04646603)The primary outcome is safety and tolerability. Safety and functional assessments are performed throughout the study. Blood samples are collected to evaluate systemic exposure. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis and RNA expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are used to evaluate the pharmacodynamics. RESULTS: Fourteen subjects received MRG-001 and 7 received a placebo. MRG-001 is safe and well-tolerated over the selected dose range. No deaths or severe adverse events are reported. There are no clinically significant laboratory changes after MRG-001 administration, apart from the predicted generalized leukocytosis. The intermediate dose group (0.01 mL/kg) showed the most significant white blood cell mobilization over time and increased by 2-4 fold from baseline and returned to baseline levels prior to the next injection. Circulating immune cells including FOXP3+ regulatory T cells and hematopoietic stem cells (CD45IntCD34+) increased significantly after MRG-001 injection. PBMC RNA sequencing and gene set enrichment analysis revealeds 31 down-regulated pathways in the intermediate dose MRG-001 group compared to no changes in the placebo group. CONCLUSION: MRG-001 is safe and well-tolerated across the full dose ranges tested. MRG-001 may be a clinically useful therapy for immunoregulation and tissue regeneration. A Phase II trial to treat severely and critically ill COVID-19 patients with MRG-001 has been initiated (NCT04646603) and a second phase II trial will explore the potential of MRG-001 to accelerate wound healing (NCT05844527),

Project description:Elderly, non-fit AML/MDS patients relapsed/refractory (R/R) after HMA-based treatment represent a highly unmet clinical need, necessitating the development of age-appropriate therapies with an acceptable safety profile, e.g. with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). As histone demethylase LSD1 (KDM1A) is a rational therapeutic target in AML, we conducted a phase I trial with the LSD1 inhibitor tranylcypromine (TCP, dose levels [DL] 20, 40, 60, 80mg p.o. d1-28) combined with fixed-dose ATRA (45mg/m2 p.o. d10-28) and low-dose cytarabine (LDAC, 40mg s.c. d1-10). The primary endpoint was dose limiting toxicity (DLT) in the first 28 days of treatment. The aim was the determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Enrollment into DLs was performed using the rolling six design. Twenty-three patients with R/R AML and 2 with relapsed MDS were accrued, with a median age 75 years (range 62-84), after a median of two prior treatment lines (range, 1-5). Three, 6, 6 and 10 patients were allocated to DL 20, 40, 60, and 80 mg TCP, respectively, with 3, 12, 6 , 4 patients achieving the respective dose of 20, 40, 60, and 80 mg, and 3 patients on each DL being fully evaluable for MTD. TCP was administered for a median of 39.5 days (range 11-228), for >60 days in 30% of patients. No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed at any DL, MTD could not be established. Most common adverse events > grade 3 occurring in >10% of patients were: pneumonia (16%) and febrile neutropenia (12%). No differentiation syndrome occurred. Two patients attained a partial remission; stable disease was achieved in 10 of 22 evaluable patients. Median overall survival was 62 days (range 14-325). Accompanying studies included pharmacokinetics, serial determinations of fetal hemoglobin and genes known to be regulated by LSD1 or ATRA, such as CD86, CD38 and GFI1B. Patients’ quality of life, anxiety and depression were determined before and after treatment. In conclusion, the combination of TCP with ATRA and LDAC was well feasible, even at the highest DL. Almost half of the patients attained stable disease, indicating limited cross-resistance with prior HMA treatment. Hence, studies with more potent LSD1 inhibitors appear warranted.
