Abstract Background: Aberrant activation of B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling is considered to be a major oncogenic mechanism that leads to the development and progression of multiple B-cell malignancies. ARQ 531 is a reversible ATP competitive inhibitor of BTK that inhibits ibrutinib-resistant BTK-C481S mutant CLL cells and has demonstrated antitumor activity in CLL, Richter's transformation, and DLBCL mouse models. Objectives: The primary objectives of the clinical study are to assess the safety and tolerability, and to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose and schedule of ARQ 531. The secondary objectives are to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, pharmacodynamic (PD) activity, and preliminary evidence of anti-tumor activity of ARQ 531. Methods: This is a first in human, Phase 1 dose escalation study in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, or B-cell NHL who received at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy. Prior therapy must have included a BTK inhibitor, if FDA approved for their disease. Dose escalation was performed according to a 3+3 study design. Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were assessed per NCI CTCAE v.4.03. Tumor responses were evaluated per disease specific guidelines. Results: A total of 16 patients enrolled (median age 65.5 years, male 93.8%, 2 DLBCL, 2 follicular lymphoma, 12 CLL/SLL, 5 median prior systemic regimens) and were treated at dose levels of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30mg QD. No dose limiting toxicities have been reported with ARQ 531. Drug related TEAEs included diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, pneumonia, amylase increased, lipase increased, neutrophil count decreased, platelet count decreased, decreased appetite, hypernatraemia, arthralgia, groin pain, dizziness, facial paralysis, headache, tremor and restlessness in one patient (6.3%) each. Drug related grade 3 or worse TEAEs included lipase increased and platelet count decreased in one patient (6.3%) each. No drug related serious TEAEs were reported. Among the 12 patients who have received at least 1 dose of study drug and have at least 1 post-treatment tumor measurement data, 5 achieved stable disease (SD) (1 follicular lymphoma, 1 DLBCL, 3 CLL) and 7 had progressive disease (6 CLL, 1 follicular lymphoma). Three of 5 SD patients (1 follicular lymphoma, 1 DLBCL, 1 CLL) had 35%, 34% and 29% tumor reduction and 2 of them are ongoing on study treatment at 53 and 18 weeks. The CLL patient with 29% tumor reduction had BTK C481S mutation. Preliminary PK data showed ARQ 531 exposure was close to dose proportional and the estimated plasma half-life generally ranged from 20-24 hours. Consistent with increases in exposure, pBTK knockdown was observed. In Cohort 4 (20mg QD), all three patients showed 100% pBTK knockdown at a mean plasma Cmax exposure of 300nM (~4h post dose). Levels of CCL3 protein, a plasma biomarker for BCR pathway activation, was significantly suppressed in CLL patients. Conclusions: ARQ 531 has demonstrated a manageable safety profile to date. Diminished pBTK signaling and CCL3 protein levels have been observed in CLL patients. Additionally, preliminary anti-tumor activity has been observed at doses of ARQ 531 that were not predicted to completely inhibit BTK. Updated safety, PK, biomarker and anti-tumor activity data will be presented at the meeting.

Abstract Introduction: CMC-544 is an antibody-targeted chemotherapy agent composed of a humanized antibody that specifically targets the CD22 antigen, conjugated to calicheamicin, a potent cytotoxic antitumor agent. Malignant cells of mature B-lymphocyte lineage express CD22, suggesting that CMC-544 may be useful for treating lymphomas of B-cell origin. A phase 1 dose-escalation trial of CMC-544 was performed at 14 European and US sites with 36 patients in the dose escalation portion and 48 in the expanded MTD portion. The MTD dose was 1.8 mg/m2 every 4 weeks. In the dose escalation phase the main toxicities observed were thrombocytopenia, asthenia, nausea, neutropenia, elevated liver function tests (LFTs) and anorexia. Grade 3–4 levels were only seen for thrombocytopenia, asthenia, neutropenia and LFTs (incidence of 40%, 13%, 9% and 9% respectively). Responses were seen in 8/22 (36%) patients (Advani A, et. al. Blood, abstract# 230, 2005:106). We now report the results of the expanded cohort at the MTD. Patients and Methods: Relapsed/refractory lymphoma patients were treated at the 1.8 mg/m2 dose level every 4 weeks. In addition to safety data, preliminary efficacy data (assessed using the International Workshop to Standardize Response Criteria for NHL) were collected. Results: As of July 2006, 48 patients were treated: median age 57 years (range 26–75); 51% females; 61% with ≥ 4 prior lines of therapy; 22 (46%) follicular lymphomas (FL) and 26 (54%) diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL). Data were available on 48 patients evaluable for safety and 34 patients (19 FL and 15 DLBCL) evaluable for response. The overall safety profile was manageable; the most common drug-related adverse events (all grades) included thrombocytopenia (90%; the only bleeding noted was grade 1–2 epistaxis [12%]), asthenia (57%), nausea (39%), neutropenia (37%) and elevated levels of AST/SGOT (41%), ALT/SGPT (18%), alkaline phosphatase (27%) and bilirubin (18%). Grade 3–4 AEs that occurred with a frequency ≥ 10% included thrombocytopenia (57%) and neutropenia (29%). Responses in evaluable patients are shown in Table 1. The objective response rate was 69% and 33% for patients with FL and DLBCL, respectively. Conclusions: CMC-544 exhibits effficacy against recurrent/refractory B-cell lymphomas, with the main toxicity being clinically manageable, self limited thrombocytopenia. These encouraging data support the continuing development of CMC-544.

TPS2601 Background: BAL101553 (prodrug of BAL27862) is a novel TCC that promotes tumor cell death by modulating the spindle assembly checkpoint. BAL27862 is a lipophilic, small molecule (MW 387) shown in rats to penetrate the brain (1:1 plasma ratio) and has shown promising antitumor activity in orthotopic preclinical models of GBM as monotherapy or in combination with radiotherapy (RT) with/without chemotherapy. In a completed Phase 1 study with 2-h IV infusions (Days 1, 8, 15, q28d, NCT01397929 , CDI-CS-001, Lopez et al. J Clin Oncol 34, 2016 suppl; 2525), dose-limiting vascular effects were observed and appeared Cmax related. Preclinical data suggest that antiproliferative effects of BAL101553/27862 are driven by exposure (AUC); thus vascular toxicity and antitumor activity are mediated by different PK drivers. In this ongoing study (NCT02490800, CDI-CS-002), daily oral BAL101553 was initially examined in solid-tumor patients; no vascular toxicities were observed at doses up to the MAD of 30 mg QD. Given this absence, the study was amended to enroll separate cohorts of patients with progressive or recurrent GBM or high-grade glioma. Methods: This is an ongoing multicenter, open-label, Phase 1 dose-escalation study using a 3+3 design to determine the MTD, characterize dose-limiting toxicities and assess the PK, PD and antitumor activities of daily oral administration of BAL101553 in consecutive 28-day cycles at a starting dose of 8 mg QD. Patients with histologically-confirmed GBM or high-grade glioma, with progressive or recurrent disease after prior RT with/without chemotherapy, are eligible for enrollment. This includes patients with histologically-confirmed low-grade glioma with unequivocal evidence by imaging of transformation to high-grade glioma. Adverse events are assessed using CTCAEv4; tumor response by RANO (every 2 cycles). The dose escalation allows for doubling of dose levels depending on observed toxicities. PD assessments include circulating tumor cells. PK profiles are assessed throughout the first two treatment cycles. Clinical trial information: NCT02490800.

2551 Background: IL-27 is an immunosuppressive cytokine, consisting of two subunits p28 and EBI3, that upregulates immune checkpoint receptors (eg, PD-L1, TIGIT) and downregulates proinflammatory cytokines such as IFNγ, TNFα, and IL-17. SRF388 is a first-in-class, fully human IgG1 antibody to IL-27 that blocks the interaction between IL-27 and its receptor, thereby promoting immune activation in the tumor microenvironment. The IL-27 pathway is activated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and high circulating levels of EBI3 are associated with inferior outcomes in both. Circulating EBI3 levels may serve as a predictive biomarker of SRF388 activity. Methods: Patients with advanced solid tumors refractory to standard therapy were enrolled in a phase 1 dose-escalation study (accelerated single patient followed by standard 3+3) to establish the preliminary safety of SRF388 as a monotherapy and to identify a dose suitable for expansion (NCT04374877). SRF388 was administered intravenously every 4 weeks. Tumor response was assessed by RECIST v1.1. SRF388 pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) [phospho-STAT (pSTAT) inhibition] analyses were performed. Results: As of January 26, 2021, 12 patients have received SRF388 at doses ranging from 0.003 to 10 mg/kg with 2 patients undergoing intra-patient dose escalation. Median age was 68 years, 67% were female, and ECOG PS was 0/1 (42%/58%). Median number of prior therapies was 2 (range 1–9), and 75% were anti-PD-(L)1 experienced (n = 9). The only treatment-related adverse events observed across dose levels were low-grade fatigue (n = 1, 8%), nausea (n = 1, 8%) and excess salivation (n = 1, 8%). No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) or ≥ Grade 3 related toxicity have occurred. Mean time on study is 12.5 weeks (range 4–40). One patient with RCC who received prior anti-PD-1 has prolonged stable disease for > 9 months. SRF388 PK are linear with estimated T1/2 ranging from 6–19 days. There is evidence of accumulation and no anti-drug antibody development to date. Maximal inhibition of the IL-27 signaling pathway as measured by > 90% pSTAT inhibition in whole blood was achieved starting at 0.3 mg/kg. Given combined evidence of near-complete pathway inhibition and preclinical human equivalent dose modeling projecting biologically active doses, additional slots were opened for RCC and HCC starting at 1 mg/kg. Conclusions: Preliminary results of IL-27 pathway blockade with a first-in-class therapeutic demonstrates that SRF388 is well tolerated at doses that achieve maximal inhibition of downstream pSTAT signaling through the dosing period. Expansions are planned in HCC and RCC. Updated data including the recommended phase 2 dose, clinical outcomes, PK/PD and correlative analyses will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT04374877.
