3011 Background: BMS-986504 selectively binds to the PRMT5-MTA complex, which represents a synthetic lethal target in MTAP -del cancer cells, while sparing MTAP– wild-type cells. In the first-in-human phase 1/2 CA240-0007 study in advanced, unresectable or metastatic solid tumors with homozygous MTAP -del, BMS-986504 was found to be well tolerated and demonstrated antitumor activity in multiple tumors. Here, we report clinical results and the first PK and PD analyses of BMS-986504 from the dose escalation and expansion phases of CA240-0007. Methods: Pts with measurable/evaluable disease and no available treatment (Tx) with curative intent were enrolled; 7 doses were evaluated (50 to 800 mg) in dose escalation. Objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DOR), time to response (TTR), safety, PK, PD, including plasma SDMA were assessed. Results: As of 2 Dec 24, 152 heavily pretreated pts were enrolled across all doses: NSCLC (n = 34), PDAC (n = 41), cholangiocarcinoma (n = 12), and mesothelioma (n = 12) were the most common tumor types. With a median f/u of 9.0 mo (95% CI 7.6–9.9), continued durable antitumor activity and deepening tumor regression were seen across tumor types and doses (ORR = 23%, DCR = 70%, median DOR = 10.5 mo, TTR = 4.6 mo). No new safety signals were identified. Most Tx-related adverse events (TRAEs) were grade (Gr) 1 or 2; 13% had Gr ≥ 3 TRAEs (Gr 3 = 12%, Gr 4 = < 1%, Gr 5 = 0). Doses from 50 to 600 mg QD were assessed for PK/PD. The AUC (0-24) after multiple doses was approximately dose proportional at 200 to 600 mg, and the terminal t 1/2 after a single dose was approximately 24 h (table). There were dose-dependent reductions in predicted plasma SDMA, with the 400 and 600 mg doses approaching the plateau. Conclusions: With longer f/u, BMS-986504 continued to show increasingly durable antitumor activity. BMS-986504 demonstrated a favorable PK/PD profile, supporting QD dosing at 400 and 600 mg. These results support further investigation of BMS-986504 at 400 and 600 mg QD as a potential first-in-class synthetic lethal Tx option in pts with advanced solid tumors with MTAP -del.

Abstract Background: Effective treatments (Tx) are needed for MTAP-del cancers (10-15% of all cancers). BMS-986504 (formerly MRTX1719) is a potential first-in-class MTA-cooperative protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) inhibitor that selectively binds to the PRMT5-MTA complex, a synthetic lethal target in MTAP-del but not MTAP-wild-type cells. In the first-in-human phase 1/2 CA240-0007 study, BMS-986504 was well tolerated and showed clinical activity in heavily pretreated pts across multiple advanced solid tumors with homozygous MTAP-del. Here, we report results of exploratory PD analyses of PRMT5 inhibition with BMS-986504 in CA240-0007. Methods: Pts with advanced, unresectable or metastatic solid tumors with homozygous MTAP-del received BMS-986504 (50 to 800 mg) in 3-wk cycles. Symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) and intron retention are known PD BMs of PRMT5 inhibition. Therefore, PD effects of BMS-986504 were assessed via changes in plasma and tumor SDMA levels (mass spec and IHC), intron retention, and gene expression (RNASeq) based on samples collected at baseline (BL) and cycle 2 day 1 (C2D1). Additional analyses correlating efficacy outcomes with PD results and select mutations at BL were performed in clinically evaluable pts as of 19-SEP-24. Results: Robust PD modulation of the PRMT5 pathway was observed with BMS-986504. Among pts with matched samples (n = 63), median plasma SDMA levels were reduced by 56% from BL (122.6 ng/mL) to C2D1 (53.8 ng/mL). There were dose-dependent reductions in median plasma SDMA with the greatest reductions at 400 mg QD (59.7% [n = 20]), 400 mg BID (61.9% [n = 9]) and 600 mg QD (59.1% [n = 14]). These PD effects were corroborated in the tumor. Median tumor SDMA levels decreased from an HScore of 285 at BL to 0 at C2D1. Consistent with the SDMA decreases, increased intron retention was observed in 9/11 pts with matched samples. BMS-986504 led to downregulation of several gene pathways including DNA repair and mitotic spindle formation, and MYC and E2F targets, as assessed by RNASeq. There was no significant change in expression of MAT2A, PRMT5, or other PRMT genes, suggesting a lack of compensation for PRMT5 inhibition through these genes. Responses were observed with BMS-986504 across EGFR, KRAS, and TP53 mutation subgroups. Additional correlative analyses among BMs and efficacy outcomes will be presented. Conclusions: BMS-986504 demonstrated robust PD effects across multiple doses and solid tumors which is consistent with the proposed mechanism of action. There was a trend of increasing plasma SDMA reduction across doses, with the greatest reductions observed at 400 mg QD and above. Together these results support further investigation of BMS-986504 at 400 mg QD and higher doses as a potential first-in-class synthetic lethal Tx option in pts with advanced solid tumors with MTAP-del.
