2617 Background: SNX-5422 is a prodrug of SNX-2112, a highly potent, non-geldanamycin analog, HSP90 inhibitor with preclinical anti-tumor activity in multiple tumor models. These phase 1 studies were designed to evaluate safety and tolerability, determine dose limiting toxicities, maximum tolerated doses (MTDs), and describe pharmacokinetics of SNX-2112 and SNX-5422. Methods: Two phase 1, open-label, 3 + 3 dose-escalation studies evaluated SNX-5422 when given daily (QD) or every-other-day (QOD) during the first 30 days of treatment in patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma. Plasma concentrations of SNX-2112 and SNX-5422 were measured after the first and 11th (steady state) doses. Tumor assessments were performed every 8 weeks. Results: In both studies, pts received SNX-5422 QOD, 3 wks on/1 wk off, with doses ranging from 4 to 133 mg/m2 QOD. In one study, pts also received QD doses from 50 to 89 mg/m2, 3 wks on/1 wk off, and 50 mg/m2 QD continuously. Fifty-six pts (34M/22F; mean age 62 years) were enrolled. Treatment-related adverse events were mainly low grade (G), including diarrhea (64%), nausea (39%), vomiting (29%), fatigue (27%), abdominal pain (14%), and anorexia (14%). Reversible G 1 blurry vision, and G 1-2 blurry vision/vision darkening were reported by 1 pt on 100 mg/m2 QOD, and 4 pts treated with 50 to 89 mg/m2 QD. G 3 diarrhea was dose limiting in 2 of 3 pts (89 mg/m2 QD; 133 mg/m2 QOD). MTDs for the QOD and QD schedules were declared at100 mg/m2 and 67 mg/m2, respectively. The QD schedule was associated with higher incidences of treatment related adverse events. 38 pts were evaluable for response including 1 confirmed durable complete response, 1 unconfirmed partial response, and 17 with stable disease. Activity was seen in adrenal, lung, liver, neuroendocrine, GIST, and prostate. All but 2 were seen with the QOD schedule. Conclusions: SNX-5422 mono-therapy was generally well tolerated and showed promising signs of efficacy in pts with advanced solid tumors. Given the superior benefit-risk profile of QOD dosing over QD dosing based on these preliminary clinical findings, 100 mg/m2 QOD has been selected for further clinical testing. Clinical trial information: NCT00506805 and NCT01611623.

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.

e14501 Background: YH002 is a recombinant humanized IgG1 antibody that targets the human OX40 receptor. Preclinical studies have demonstrated the specificity, potency, and anti-cancer efficacy of YH002 in a comprehensive panel. The totality of nonclinical data supports progression of YH002 into clinical studies in adult patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors. Methods: This is an ongoing phase 1 dose-escalation study. Patients with advanced or metastatic refractory solid tumors received YH002 as single agent by IV administration at 0.01 to12.0 mg/kg dose levels every 21 days (Q3W), to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy. An accelerated titration dose escalation design followed by a traditional 3+3 dose algorithm were utilized to assess dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and identify MTD and/or RP2D. Tumor assessments were performed per RECIST v1.1 every 9 weeks. Results: By December 31 2020, six patients were enrolled and treated at escalating dose levels of 0.01 (n=1), 0.03 (n=1), 0.1 (n=1) and 0.3mg/kg (n=3), with tumor types including colon cancer, thymic cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer and bladder cancer. Median treatment duration was 10.2 weeks (range 2 – 18). The median age of patients was 67 years old (range 47-78). These patients had progressed after a median of 2 prior lines of available standard therapy. As of data cutoff, no dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), no Grade (G) 3 or above adverse events (AE) or AEs leading to treatment discontinuation were reported. Drug-related adverse events (AEs) were all G1/2 events and occurred in 4 patients, including 8 G1 AEs (pneumonitis, rash, pruritus, arthralgia, myalgia, fatigue, lethargy, rash pruritic) and 3 G2 AEs (1 pneumonitis and 2 fatigue). Out of 5 patients having tumor assessment by RECIST, one pt with Thymic SCC at 0.3 mg/kg had best response of stable disease at week 9, one pt with prostate cancer at 0.1 mg/kg experienced Non-CR/Non-PD, and rest of 3 pts experienced progressive disease. Conclusions: These preliminary results demonstrate that YH002 was safe and tolerable up to 0.3mg/kg. Updated safety and antitumor activity will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT04353102.

BackgroundGB1275 is a first-in-class CD11b modulator that reduced myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and tumor associated macrophages (TAMs), repolarized M2 immunosuppressive TAMs to an M1 phenotype, and increased tumor infiltration of activated CD8+ T cells in preclinical models. Preclinical anti-tumor activity was observed with single-agent therapy and in combination with chemotherapy or immuno-oncology therapies.1 We report results from the dose escalation portion of an ongoing, first-in-human study of GB1275 monotherapy and combined with pembrolizumab in patients with specific advanced solid tumors. (NCT04060342)MethodsThis study comprises phase 1 dose escalation followed by phase 2 expansion in specific tumor types. In phase 1, cohorts of 3 to 6 patients with histologically confirmed, locally advanced/metastatic pancreatic, esophageal, gastric, MSS colorectal, metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer, or triple negative breast cancer are sequentially assigned to one of the ascending dose levels of GB1275 orally twice daily (BID) in 1 of 3 regimens: A (GB1275 monotherapy); B (GB1275 + pembrolizumab) commenced after completion of two cohorts of A; and C (GB1275 + nab-paclitaxel + gemcitabine) will be initiated after A. Patients in Regimens A and B had previously exhausted standard of care treatment options. Dose escalation was based on safety, including dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). Serial blood samples were collected for pharmacokinetic (PK) and biomarker analyses; tumor tissue was also collected for biomarker analysis.ResultsAs of July 28, 2020, 36 patients were treated, 23 in Regimen A (GB1275 100 mg to 1200 mg BID) and 13 in Regimen B (GB1275 100 mg to 800 mg BID + pembrolizumab). No DLTs or adverse events requiring steroid treatment were reported. GB1275-related adverse events were reported in 19 (52.8%) patients; most were Grade 1 and most frequent events (≥10%) were dysesthesia (13.9%) and photosensitivity reaction (11.1%). Stable disease was reported in 4 (17%) patients in Regimen A and 6 (46%) in Regimen B with a median (range) exposure of 84 days (35–172). A dose-dependent increase in GB1275 exposure was observed. An increase in tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) counts was noted in both Regimens A and B. Other biomarker analyses in serial blood and tumor tissue are ongoing.ConclusionsDose escalation of GB1275, up to 1200 mg and 800 mg BID in Regimens A and B, respectively, demonstrated tolerability as monotherapy and combined with pembrolizumab. The maximum tolerated dose has not been reached. Preliminary observation of an increase in TILs after treatment is encouraging.Ethics ApprovalThis ongoing study is being conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS) International Ethical Guidelines. The study was approved by the Ethics Boards of the University of Colorado Hospital, Washington University School of Medicine - Siteman Cancer Center, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, The Sarah Cannon Research Institute/Tennessee Oncology, South Texas Accelerated Research Therapeutics, and The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust.ReferencePanni RZ, Herndon JM, Zuo C, et al.

2577 Background: YH001 is a humanized anti -hCTLA-4 IgG1 mAb that relieves CTLA-4-mediated immunosuppression, and thereby enhances the T-cell-mediated antitumor immune response. Pre-clinical data have shown potent anti-cancer activity when combined with anti-PD-1 mAb. Methods: This is an ongoing phase 1 dose-escalation study. Patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors received YH001 by IV administration at 0.05 to 6.0 mg/kg for 1 cycle (21 days) then in combination with Toripalimab (anti-PD-1 mAb) at 240 mg Q3W for 4 cycles. An accelerated titration method followed by the standard “3+3” design was utilized to evaluate safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy. Results: As of 31-Dec-2020 data cut-off, 10 pts were enrolled and treated at 0.05 mg/kg (n = 2), 0.1 mg/kg (n = 3), 0.3 mg/kg (n = 3) and 1 mg/kg (n = 2). The median age was 62 years (range 46-74). Baseline ECOG scores were 0 (n = 8), 1(n = 2) with all pts progressed after a median of 2 prior lines of available standard therapy (range 1-4) including 1 pt progressed after immunotherapy of pembrolizumab. There were no dose limiting toxicities (DLT) observed. No severe adverse events (SAEs), Grade (G) 3 or above adverse events (AEs) and AEs leading to treatment discontinuation were reported. Twelve drug related AEs were all G1/2 events including 2 G2 AEs (1 rash maculopapular at 0.05mg/kg, 1 hypothyroidism at 0.1mg/kg), 10 G1 AEs (1 hypotension, 1 dry skin, 1 pruritus at 0.05mg/kg; 1 rash, 1 rash macular, 1 hyperthyroidism, 2 rash pruritus at 0.1mg/kg, 2 fatigues at 0.3mg/kg). Among 7 patients having imaging tumor assessment by RECIST v1.1, there were 4 SD, including 1 at 0.05 mg/kg with tongue carcinoma at week 8 assessment, 1 at 0.1 mg/kg with nasopharyngeal carcinoma at week 8 and 15 assessment, 2 at 0.3 mg/kg with gastroesophageal junction cancer and uterus leiomyosarcoma at week 8. Conclusions: YH001 combined with Toripalimab is safe and tolerable up to 1 mg/kg dose level. Updated safety and preliminary efficacy data will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT04481009.

2631 Background: MGC018 is an investigational ADC with a duocarmycin payload linked to an anti-B7-H3 monoclonal antibody (mAb). B7-H3 is expressed on multiple solid tumors with limited normal tissue expression. It is hypothesized that MGC018 may exert activity against B7-H3-expressing tumors with an acceptable safety profile. Studies demonstrate that B7-H3 is a significant factor in progression and events of metastasis of multiple tumor types, including melanoma. Methods: This phase 1 study characterizes safety, maximum tolerated or maximum administered dose, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and tumor response per RECIST v1.1 of MGC018 in a 3+3+3 dose escalation design in patients with advanced solid tumors. MGC018 was administered intravenously (IV) every 3 weeks. Results: The study enrolled 29 patients of multiple tumor types, which included 3 melanoma patients refractory to ≥2 prior lines of checkpoint therapy. The study completed 5 of 6 planned dose cohorts (0.5 mg/kg - 4 mg/kg) as of the data cutoff of 21 January 2021. The final cohort of 4 mg/kg has 3 patients with ongoing treatment and follow-up at the date of submission. Dosing MGC018 IV every 3 weeks resulted in minimal serum accumulation. At least 1 treatment emergent adverse event occurred in 29 patients (100.0%); most common (≥25%) were anemia, neutropenia, fatigue, hyperpigmentation, infusion related reaction, nausea, and palmar plantar erythrodysesthesia. Two dose-limiting toxicities occurred; one grade 4 neutropenia (2 mg/kg) and one grade 3 fatigue lasting 7 days (4 mg/kg). No febrile neutropenia was reported. The 3 melanoma patients had reductions in target lesion sum of 24.4%, 27.5%, and 35% (unconfirmed partial response) and remain on treatment as of the data cutoff. The recommended phase 2 dose was determined to be 3 mg/kg. Conclusions: Results to date demonstrate a manageable safety profile, with early evidence of clinical activity in pretreated metastatic melanoma. Cohort expansion is ongoing using a recommended phase 2 dose of 3 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks. The planned enrollment includes advanced metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer, melanoma, triple-negative breast cancer, and non-small cell lung cancer. Clinical trial information: NCT03729596.

2580 Background: YH003, a recombinant, humanized agonistic anti-CD40 IgG2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) specifically recognizes and agonizes CD40 on the antigen-presenting cells to enhance immune responses. Preclinical data have shown potent anti-cancer activity when combined with anti-PD-1 antibodies. Methods: This is an ongoing phase 1 dose-escalation study. Patients with advanced solid tumors receive YH003 by IV administration Q3W as monotherapy at 0.03 to 3.0 mg/kg for the first cycle (21 days) then in combination with Toripalimab at 240 mg Q3W for the 4 subsequent cycles in an accelerated “3+3” design. The safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy data will be analyzed. Results: As of 31 Dec 2020 data cutoff, 9 patients (pts) were enrolled and treated at 0.03 mg/kg (n = 3), 0.1mg/kg (n = 3), and 0.3mg/kg (n = 3). The median age was 63 years (range 33-68). Baseline ECOG scores were 0 (7 pts) and 1 (2 pts) with a median of 2 prior lines therapy (range 1-7). 5 pts had received prior immunotherapy (PD-1/PD-L1 or PD-1+CTLA-4). As of data cutoff, no dose limiting toxicities (DLT) were observed. No Serious Adverse Event (SAE) or AEs leading to treatment discontinuation were reported. Four drug related AEs were reported including one Grade 1 (G1) choroidal thickening (related to YH003) at 0.03 mg/kg, one G1 fatigue (related to YH003) at 0.1 mg/kg, two G1 febrile episodes (one related to YH003 and the other related to combination treatment) at 0.3 mg/kg. Among 5 patients assessable for response, there were 2 SD (one with anti-PDL1 refractory Merkel cell carcinoma at 0.03 mg/kg and one with anti-PD1 refractory NSCLC at 0.1 mg/kg) and 1 PR with anti-PD1/anti-CTLA4 refractory ocular melanoma at 0.1 mg/kg. Conclusions: YH003 was well tolerated up to 0.3 mg/kg dose levels when combined with Toripalimab and has shown encouraging antitumor activity in patients with advanced solid tumors. Clinical trial information: NCT04481009.
