PiggyBac-engineered membrane-bound IL-7 TILs combined with anti-PD-1 antibody demonstrates efficacy in recurrent ovarian cancer: a first-in-human phase 1 trial

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Recurrent ovarian cancer (rOC) remains an unmet need. This first-in-human phase 1 trial evaluated GC203, an autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) product genetically modified via piggyBac transposon to overcome the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Patients and Methods: A cohort of 18 patients with rOC who were heavily pretreated (median, 3.5 prior lines of therapy) underwent lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide and hydroxychloroquine, followed by GC203 infusion. The primary endpoints were safety and tolerability. Secondary endpoints, assessed in the full analysis set (FAS) using RECIST 1.1 guidelines, encompassed objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Exploratory analyses included the Morisita Overlap Index (MOI) to quantify T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire similarity between infused TILs and circulating T cells. Results: The GC203 regimen demonstrated a favorable safety profile. Treatment-related adverse events were primarily hematological, with grade≥3 lymphopenia and neutropenia each occurring in 57% of patients. All proved to be transient with a median resolution 7 days. The regimen achieved an unconfirmed ORR of 33.3% (6/18 patients) alongside a disease control rate (DCR) of 83.3%. Survival analyses revealed a median PFS of 7.2 months (95% CI: 1.0-13.4) and a median OS of 17.1 months (95% CI: 9.5-24.7). A key exploratory analysis identified the MOI as a significant predictor of treatment response, achieving an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.79. Conclusion: The GC203 regimen, combining piggyBac-mbIL-7 autologous TILs with anti-PD-1 antibody, demonstrates favorable safety and promising efficacy in heavily pretreated rOC, which supports its further development in this high-need population.

Project description:Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is frequently amplified and acts as an immune modulator across cancer types. However, evidence illustrates that targeting FAK is most effective in combination therapy rather than in monotherapy. Here, we demonstrated that the FAK inhibitor, IN10018, and pegylated liposome doxorubicin (PLD) exerted effective antitumor activity preclinically and clinically (clinical trial ID: CTR20200913). The clinical study is a phase Ib trial which includes dose confirmation and expansion sections. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints include disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. As of the data cutoff date (30 November 2022), a total of 61 platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) patients were enrolled and no IN10018-related grade 4 or 5 adverse effects (AEs) were reported. The ORR was 46.3% (95% confidence interval (CI): 32.6%, 60.4%) and the DCR was 83.3% (95% CI: 70.7%, 92.1%). The median PFS was 7.26 months (95% CI: 5.16 - 8.02 months), and the median duration of response (DoR) was 6.93 months (95% CI: 4.17 - 9.13 months). The primary and secondary endpoints were met. The median OS was not reached, and still maturing. Notably, the regimen exhibited response latency and long-lasting effects in the clinical trial, outcomes frequently observed in immunotherapy. Our preclinical study revealed that the 2-drug combination can maximize the immunogenic cell death (ICD) of cancer cells, boosting the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) and stimulating CD8 T cells to strengthen the antitumor effects. At present, immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is widely considered to exert long-term treatment benefits by activating antitumor immunity. However, many cancer patients show poor clinical responses to ICB due in part to the lack of immunogenic niche. Our work confirmed that IN10018 in combination with PLD can prime the tumor microenvironment, supplementing it with sufficient tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) to activate antitumor immunity. Correspondingly, animal studies validated that the antitumor effects of ICB can be significantly enhanced by this doublet regimen. The preclinical results warrant further clinical exploration for the triplet regimen with IN10018, PLD, and ICB.

Project description:Importance: Autophagy has been identified as a resistance mechanism to BRAF and MEK inhibition in BRAF mutant melanoma. In the BAMM trial, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) was used to inhibit autophagy in combination with dabrafenib and trametenib in BRAF mutant melanoma patients. Objective: To a) determine safety and maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of hydroxychloroquine when combined with dabrafenib and trametinib and b) determine antitumor activity of the combination. Design: Open label non-randomized phase I/II clinical trial Setting: Prospective therapeutic clinical trial conducted in 4 centers Participants: Unresectable Stage III or Stage IV BRAF mutant melanoma patients Intrevention: HCQ twice daily, dabrafenib 150 mg twice daily and trametinib 2 mg daily (D+T) Main Outcome: Primary outcomes were safety and 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate Results: Between December 2014 and January 2020, 50 patients were screened, 38 patients were enrolled and evaluable for toxicity and 34 patients were evaluable for 1-year PFS rate. Patient demographics were: 29% were ECOG PS 1, 47% had elevated LDH, 52% were Stage IV M1c or M1d and 53% had previously received therapy for advanced melanoma. In the phase I trial there was no dose limiting toxicity of HCQ at either 400 (n=3) or 600 (MTD) mg po bid combined with D+T. For the entire study population, the 1-year PFS rate was 41% (95% CI = ), median PFS was 11.9 months (95% CI = ), overall response rate (ORR) was 85% (95% exact CI=64-95%)and complete response rate of 41% (95% exact CI=25-59%). In a prespecificed subgroup analysis in 18 patients with elevated LDH, the ORR was 88% and median PFS was 8 months Conlusion and Relevance: The combination of HCQ, dabrafenib and trametinib was well tolerated and produced a high response rate but did not meet the prespecified criteria for success with respect to the 1-year PFS rate. In patients with elevated LDH , the response rate and PFS were encouraging. A randomized placebo controlled trial of dabrafenib and trametinib with/without HCQ in advanced BRAF mutant melanoma patients with elevated LDH and previously treated with immunotherapy is being conducted through the National Clinical Trial Network.
