TPS2657 Background: T-cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT) is an inhibitory immune checkpoint receptor expressed on subsets of T cells and NK cells. SEA-TGT is an effector-function enhanced human mAb that targets TIGIT with pico-molar affinity and blocks TIGIT’s interaction with CD155 and CD112. SEA-TGT was developed to have amplified binding to and engagement of Fcγ receptors. Enhanced effector function increases TIGIT+ T-regulatory cell depletion, enhances innate immune cell activation, and augments naïve and memory CD8+ T-cell responses. Preclinically, SEA-TGT elicits superior anti-tumor immune responses compared to other TIGIT mAbs without effector-enhanced backbones, with curative anti-tumor activity as monotherapy and in combination with other immune-modulators. Methods: This phase 1, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation/expansion study (NCT04254107) is assessing the safety, tolerability and preliminary activity of SEA-TGT monotherapy in up to 205 adults (≥18 years) with histologically or cytologically confirmed relapsed, refractory, or progressive metastatic solid tumors (non-small cell lung, gastric/GE junction carcinomas, cutaneous melanoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, bladder cancer, ovarian cancer or triple-negative breast cancer) or lymphomas (classical Hodgkin lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, or peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified). SEA-TGT will be infused on Day 1 of 21-day cycles. In Part A, the safety and tolerability of SEA-TGT will be assessed in ̃25 subjects to identify the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase II dose (RP2D). In Part B, the safety and antitumor activity of the RP2D will be assessed in ̃180 subjects in disease-specific expansion cohorts. Primary endpoints are adverse events, laboratory abnormalities, dose-limiting toxicities, and dose-level safety and activity. Secondary endpoints are objective response (OR) rates, duration of OR, complete response, progression-free survival, overall survival, PK, and antidrug antibodies. Exploratory biomarkers of SEA-TGT-mediated pharmacodynamic (PD) effects, PK-PD correlations, and correlative analyses of predictive and PD measurements with response, toxicity, and resistance will be explored. The study was opened April 2020 and is enrolling across sites in North America and Europe. Clinical trial information: NCT04254107.

3584 Background: Patients (pts) with microsatellite stable (MSS) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) that progressed on ≥2 prior therapies have limited treatment options, with median OS ranging from 6-9 months (mo). In the dose-escalation phase of this first-in-human multicohort study (NCT02720068), the anti-lymphocyte activation gene (LAG)-3 antibody favezelimab (fave) was well tolerated alone and with pembrolizumab (pembro) across all dose levels (Lakhani, SITC, 2018, abstract O26). Here, we evaluate the safety and efficacy of fave alone or in combination with pembro in pts with advanced MSS CRC from the dose confirmation phase. Methods: Eligible pts with MSS PD-1/PD-L1-treatment-naïve mCRC that progressed on prior standard-of-care (3L+) were enrolled (cohort A) to receive the RP2D of 800 mg fave alone (Arm 1), 800 mg fave + 200 mg pembro (Arm 2C), or 800 mg fave + 200 mg pembro (MK-4280A) co-formulation (Arm 5), all Q3W. Treatment continued for 35 cycles or until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or investigator/pt decision. Pts with confirmed progression per irRECIST v1.1 on fave alone could crossover to 800 mg fave + pembro. Safety was assessed in all treated pts; efficacy in the full analysis set (FAS) of all treated pts with baseline scan. Objectives included safety (primary), ORR (RECIST v1.1 by investigator [secondary]), and DOR, PFS, and OS (exploratory). Interim analysis data cut-off was: Oct. 23, 2020. Results: A total of 20 pts received fave (Arm 1); 89 pts (including 9 crossover) received fave + pembro (Arms 2C+5); 12 pts (Arm 1) and 36 pts (Arms 2C+5), had PD-L1 CPS ≥1 tumors. At data cut-off, median follow-up was 5.8 months (mo) in Arm 1 and 6.2 mo in Arms 2C+5. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were 65% with fave (Arm 1) and 65.2% with fave + pembro (Arms 2C+5). Grade ≥3 TRAEs were 15% (Arm 1), and 20% [Arms 2C+5]). No grade 5 TRAEs were reported. Common TRAEs (≥15%) included fatigue (20.0%), nausea (15%) with fave, and fatigue (16.9%) with fave + pembro. Confirmed ORR was 6.3% (4PR, 1CR) with fave + pembro (Arms 2C+5). No pt receiving fave alone responded. In Arms 2C+5, median DOR was 10.6 mo (range, 5.6-12.7). ORR, OS and PFS by PD-L1 status are reported in the Table. Conclusions: Favezelimab alone or in combination with pembrolizumab had a manageable safety profile, with no treatment-related deaths. Promising antitumor activity was observed with combination therapy, including with MK-4280A, compared with monotherapy most notably in pts with PD-L1 CPS ≥1 tumors.
