Indoleamine 2,3 Dioxygenase

BackgroundM4112 is an oral, potent, and selective indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase 2 (TDO2) dual inhibitor. Here, we report preclinical data and first-in-human phase I data, including safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy, of M4112 monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors.MethodsIn preclinical studies, M4112 was administered to mice with IDO1-expressing tumors to determine tumor IDO1 and liver TDO2 inhibition. In the phase I trial, patients received doses of M4112 two times per day in 28-day cycles until progression, toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D). The primary endpoint was the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), and treatment-emergent changes in safety parameters. Other endpoints included pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor effects.ResultsIn mice, M4112 significantly decreased the kynurenine:tryptophan ratio in the liver and tumor. Fifteen patients received M4112 at five distinct dose levels (three patients per cohort: 100, 200, 400, 600, and 800 mg two times per day orally). Initially, all doses inhibited IDO1 ex vivo, but plasma kynurenine levels returned to or exceeded baseline levels after day 15. Despite initial changes in kynurenine, there was no significant reduction of plasma kynurenine at steady state. There was one DLT (grade 3 allergic dermatitis; 800 mg two times per day) and one grade 2 QT prolongation (800 mg two times per day), resulting in dose reduction (not a DLT). M4112 was well tolerated, and neither the MTD nor the RP2D was established. TEAEs included fatigue, nausea, and vomiting. The best overall response was stable disease (n=9, 60%).ConclusionsThere were no serious safety concerns at any dose. Although M4112 inhibited IDO1 activity ex vivo, plasma kynurenine levels were not reduced despite achieving target exposure.Trial registration numberNCT03306420.

13115 Background: MGd is a novel therapeutic agent that concentrates in tumors and generates reactive oxygen species. Pre-clinical models show that MGd enhances in tumors the cytotoxic activity of selected chemotherapies, including taxanes. This phase I trial studied the combination of MGd and docetaxel. Methods: Patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors, adequate bone marrow, hepatic and renal function were eligible. Cohorts of 3 pts were treated with MGd starting at 2.5 mg/kg followed 30 minutes later by docetaxel 75 mg/m2. Treatments were repeated q3wks. The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MGd in combination with docetaxel on this schedule and to determine the dose limiting toxicities (DLT). The secondary objective was to evaluate the response rate. MGd dose was escalated in successive cohorts while docetaxel dose remained fixed. Results: Sixteen pts were entered (9 males, 7 females) at MGd dose of 2.5 to 10 mg/kg. The median age was 60.5 yrs (range 35 -75). ECOG PS0 (4), 1 (14). Diagnoses included prostate (1); ovarian (2); breast (2) and non-small cell lung (NSCLC) (11). Median number of prior chemotherapy regimens: 2 (range 1–14), 7 pts had previously received a taxane: paclitaxel 5, docetaxel 2. Reported toxicities (all grades) include urine discoloration from excretion of MGd (68%), fatigue (87%), diarrhea (81%) and nausea (56%), Grade 3 neutropenia (37.5%) febrile neutropenia (6%), neuropathy (foot drop) was seen in 1 patient, therefore additional pts were entered (4 registered, but 1 never treated) at 10 mg/kg dose. Recurrence of prior radiation esophagitis was seen in 1 pt therefore it was felt that DLT was reached and study was closed. Responses are as follows: PR by CT in 1 breast and 4 NSCLC, and by PSA in 1 prostate; SD by CT in 1 breast and 2 NSCLC. Conclusion: MGd 10 mg/kg in combination with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 is feasible and did not increase docetaxel toxicity while showing promising responses. Phase II study of this combination is underway in NSCLC. [Table: see text]

e13502 Background: Linsitinib (OSI-906) is an oral inhibitor of IGF-1R and IR. Increased IGF-1R and IR activity is observed in human cancers and implicated in resistance to chemotherapy. In preclinical studies, linsitinib blocked IGF-1R/IR-AKT pathway activity evoked by PAC treatment. This study combines linsitinib + a cytotoxic agent. Methods: Pts with advanced solid tumors received weekly IV PAC (80mg/m2) in 21-day cycles with intermittent linsitinib (Arm A, d1-3q7d) or continuous linsitinib (Arm B, B2 and B3, twice daily (BID) d1-21). The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of linsitinib + PAC using a standard 3+3 phase I design. Results: 58 pts were treated (49F:9M, median age 58 yrs). Linsitinib doses of 300mg to 600mg daily (QD) d1-3q7d in Arm A and 75mg to 150 mg BID in Arm B were evaluated. Dose limiting toxicities in Arm A (n=27) were grade G3 neutropenia, G2 neuropathy and G3 deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and in Arm B (n=31) were G3 hyperglycemia, G3 fatigue (n=2) and G4 pulmonary embolism (PE). DVT and PE were reported as unrelated to linsitinib. MTD: Arm A = 600mg QD d1-3q7d Arm B = 150mg BID. Most common drug-related toxicities in ≥20%were (any grade; G3): fatigue (60%; 15.5%), nausea (48%; 0%), alopecia (48%; 0%), diarrhea (36%; 5%), drug eruption (21%; 2%), neuropathy (26%; 2%) and dysgeusia (24%; 0%). The median duration of exposure (days) for Arm A was 64.5, 91.0, 132.0 and 159.5 for the 300mg, 400mg, 450mg and 600mg doses, respectively. In Arm B, median duration of exposure (days) was 232.0 and 87.5 for the 75mg and 150mg doses, respectively. Partial response was achieved in 6 pts (10%)-3 ovarian, 1 primary peritoneal, 1 endometrial, and 1 esophageal. Stable disease was achieved in 25 pts (43%) - 10 ovarian, 2 primary peritoneal, 1 endometrial, and 12 pts in other tumor types. Pharmacokinetic (PK) results suggested no substantial PK interaction when linsitinib was administered 2 hours prior to PAC. Conclusions: Linsitinib + PAC did not show any unexpected safety concerns given the known mechanism of action, at doses up to the single agent MTDs. Clinical trial information: NCT00889382.

2536 Background: The aim of this study was to determine the safety, maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and efficacy of DS-7423, a novel inhibitor of PI3K/mTOR, in US and Japanese population. We further compared toxicities and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of DS-7423 and approved oncology drugs in the two populations. Methods: We conductedparallel, first-in-human studies in US and Japan in patients with advanced solid tumors. We conducted a Pubmed search of pivotal and corresponding phase I studies to compare the RP2D and final approval doses of molecularly targeted agents (MTA) between US and Japan. Results: 69 patients were enrolled (n = 42 from US and n = 27 from Japan). Between populations, the only difference at baseline was body weight (BW) and body mass index (BMI). Dose-limiting toxicities included grade 3 rash (48 mg), grade 3 stomatitis (240 mg), grade 3 lung infection (240 mg), grade 4 hyperglycemia (240mg), grade 3 fatigue (320 mg), and grade 3 dehydration (320mg). The MTD and RP2D was 240 mg/d in both populations. Frequent treatment-related adverse events included diarrhea, fatigue, decreased appetite, rash, and stomatitis. No remarkable difference in AUC and Cmax were observed between populations. Prolonged stable disease was seen in cholangiocarcinoma, thymic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, squamous cell carcinomas, carcinoid, and sarcoma. DS-7423 demonstrated PD effects on serum glucose, C-peptide and Akt phosphorylation and 18F-FDG uptake in tumors. The final RP2D of 17 MTA approved in US and Japan from 2001 to 2015 was near identical. The approved doses in both regions were identical. Conclusions: Despite differences in BW, BMI, and ethnicity, DS-7423 showed no difference in PK, PD, toxicity or efficacy between populations. We found near identical RP2D in phase I oncology studies and approved doses in pivotal studies. This supports increased international collaboration in the conduct of phase I oncology trials. Clinical trial information: NCT01364844, Japic CTI, 12766.

3054 Background: Dual blockade of immune checkpoint molecules, PD-1 and LAG-3, may enhance the anti-tumor response versus PD-1 blockade alone. This Phase I trial investigated BI 754091, an anti-PD-1 antibody, as monotherapy and in combination with BI 754111, an anti-LAG-3 antibody, in Asian pts with advanced solid tumors. Methods: This trial comprised 3 parts. Parts 1 and 2 (dose escalation) were in pts with unresectable/metastatic solid tumors. In Part 1, pts received BI 754091 240 mg intravenously (iv), every 3 weeks (q3w); in Part 2, pts received BI 754091 240 mg in combination with BI 754111 (400 mg, 600 mg or 800 mg iv, q3w). Dose escalation was guided by a Bayesian logistic regression model, with overdose control. The primary endpoint in Parts 1 and 2 was maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BI 754091 alone or in combination with BI 754111, based on dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in Cycle 1. In Part 3, BI 754091 240 mg plus BI 754111 600 mg q3w was assessed in 4 expansion cohorts. Cohorts A–C included pts with: A) gastric/esophagogastric junction cancer; B) esophageal cancer; C) hepatocellular cancer; all had received ≥1 line of prior systemic therapy and no prior anti-PD-(L)1 therapy. Cohort D included pts who had received prior anti-PD-(L)1 therapy for the tumor types in Cohorts A–C. The primary endpoint in Part 3 was objective response (confirmed complete response or partial response [PR] per RECIST 1.1). Results: In Part 1, 6 pts received BI 754091 240 mg. In Part 2, 9 pts received BI 754091 240 mg plus BI 754111 (400 mg/600 mg/800 mg; n = 3 per cohort). No DLTs were reported in Parts 1 and 2. In Part 3, 121 pts were treated (97 [80%] male, median age 61 years [range 23–80]); Cohorts A/B/C/D included 33/33/20/35 pts. All-grade adverse events (AEs) and treatment-related AEs (TRAEs) were experienced by 96 (79%) and 47 (39%) pts, respectively. The most commonly reported AEs (all/≥G3) were pyrexia (21%/0%), decreased appetite (17%/2%), anemia (11%/6%), and nausea (9%/0%). 36 (30%) pts reported immune-related AEs, most commonly hypothyroidism, in 7 (6%) pts. Confirmed PR was observed in 6 pts (5%; Cohort A/B, n = 4/2) and 35 (29%) pts had stable disease (Cohort A/B/C/D, n = 9/11/10/5). Conclusions: MTD was not reached for BI 754091 monotherapy or for BI 754091 in combination with BI 754111. The recommended dose for the combination was determined as BI 754091 240 mg plus BI 754111 600 mg q3w. Treatment was well tolerated and consistent with that observed in the global trial. Preliminary anti-tumor activity was seen. Clinical trial information: NCT03433898 .

PURPOSE: RPR 109881A is a new semisynthetic taxoid compound that has a similar mechanism of action to docetaxel. The purpose of this phase I study was to characterize the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), toxicity profile, pharmacokinetic profile, and antitumor effects of this agent. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Nineteen eligible patients with advanced solid tumors were enrolled. RPR 109881A was administered as a 1-hour intravenous infusion every 3 weeks at doses ranging from 15 to 75 mg/m2. Pharmacokinetic evaluation was performed at the first cycle. RESULTS: Neutropenia (febrile neutropenia) and fatigue were dose-limiting toxicities at doses of 60 and 75 mg/m2 and seemed to be dose-related. Both thrombocytopenia and anemia were infrequent. Nonhematologic toxicities were generally mild. Pharmacokinetic studies indicated that RPR 109881A plasma disposition was bi- or triphasic, with a high total plasma clearance, a large volume of distribution, and a long terminal half-life. The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and the peak concentration of RPR 109881A seemed to increase with increasing dose proportionally, suggesting linear pharmacokinetics. Urinary excretion over 48 hours was low, with a mean of 0.8 ± 0.36% of the administered dose. A significant relationship existed between the percentage decrease of neutrophil counts and the AUC of RPR 109881A. Among 18 assessable patients, two partial and two minor responses were documented. CONCLUSION: RPR 109881A was found to be a well-tolerated and promising taxoid agent. The MTD was 75 mg/m2, and the recommended dose for phase II study was 60 mg/m2 as a 1-hour infusion every 3 weeks.

Background: Pucotenlimab is a humanized immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) anti programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) with a S228P hinge mutation and an engineered Fc domain. Preclinical data suggests that pucotenlimab exerts antitumor effects. In this phase I study, which was prospectively registered on www.chinadrugtrials.org.cn (CTR20180125), the safety, maximum tolerated dose, preliminary antitumor activity, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of pucotenlimab were evaluated in patients with advanced solid tumors. Methods: Patients with advanced solid tumors refractory to standard therapies were recruited. In a 3+3 dose escalation study, 13 patients received pucotenlimab intravenously every 3 weeks (Q3W) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurred at doses of 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, and 200 mg. 17 additional patients were assigned in the expansion period. Results: A total of 30 patients were enrolled. No dose-limiting toxicity was observed. The maximum tolerated dose was not reached. The most common treatment-related adverse events of any grade were proteinuria (40%), fatigue (36.7%), weight loss (26.7%), fever (26.7%), increased aspartate aminotransferase (26.7%), rash (23.3%), and anorexia (20.0%). Partial responses occurred in five patients, with an objective response rate of 16.7%. Pharmacokinetics analysis showed rapid absorption followed by slow terminal elimination, with a mean half-life of 17.1–23.5 days across all dose groups. Conclusions: Pucotenlimab had an acceptable toxicity profile at doses up to 10 mg/kg and the maximum tolerated dose was not reached. Based on the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety profile, 3 mg/kg Q3W or 200 mg Q3W are optimal for further drug development.

Safety And Efficacy

3101 Background: IDO is an enzyme of interest in immuno-oncology because of the immunosuppressive effects that result from its role in tryptophan catabolism. Clinical trials of IDO inhibitors with immunotherapy are under active investigation. The addition of angiogenesis inhibitor may further enhance the anti-tumor immune responses. Here we report the safety and efficacy results of SHR9146 (IDO inhibitor) plus camrelizumab (PD-1 antibody) with/without apatinib (VEGFR-2 inhibitor) in patients (pts) with advanced solid cancers who failed standard antitumor therapies. Methods: This was an open-label, phase I study. Eligible puts would receive SHR9146 (escalated dose) plus camrelizumab (200 mg IV, q2w) alone (Cohort A) or in combination with apatinib (250 mg p.o. qd) (Cohort B). Each cohort was conducted according to a 3+3 dose escalation design. The starting dose of SHR9146 was 100mg bid, followed by 200, 400, 600 mg bid. The two primary endpoints were Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) and Maximum Tolerated Dose (MDT). The secondary objective was to analysis the incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) and efficacy. Results: As of Oct 31, 2020, 23 pts have been enrolled (Cohort A:14, Cohort B: 9; median age: 54 years; median prior therapies: 2 lines;). Cohort A was escalating at 600mg, and Cohort B was escalating at 400mg. Two pts experienced DLTs: one DLT (G4 hypercalcemia) was observed at 600mg in Cohort A; the other DLT (G3 rash) was observed at 400mg in Cohort B. MDT was not reached and the study was still ongoing. In Cohort A, ORR and DCR in evaluable pts were 21.4% (3/14, all confirmed) and 42.9% (6/14). Partial response was observed in 3 pts with liver cancer (1/3), renal cancer (1/3), and cervix cancer (1/3). In Cohort B, ORR and DCR in evaluable pts were 33.3%(3/9, all confirmed) and 77.8%(7/9). Partial response was observed in 3 pts with SCLC (1/3), prostate cancer (1/3) and renal cancer (1/3). The incidence of pts with TRAEs and grade>=3 TRAEs were 91.3% (21/23) and 39.1% (9/23) respectively. The most common grade>=3 TRAEs were hypercalcemia (26.1%, 6/23), fatigue (17.4%, 4/23) and nausea (13.0%, 3/23). No fatal AEs were observed. G3 nausea, G3 lipase increased and G2 GGT increased resulted in SHR9146 dose reduction in 3 pts (Cohort A). Conclusions: SHR9146 plus camrelizumab in combination with/without apatinib demonstrated promising anti-tumor activity with acceptable safety in pts with advanced solid tumors. Further study is needed to validate the efficacy and safety. Clinical trial information: NCT03491631.
