AdvanTIG-105: A phase 1b dose-expansion study of ociperlimab (OCI) + tislelizumab (TIS) with chemotherapy (chemo) in patients (pts) with stage IV gastric/gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GC/GEJC).
4028 Background: T-cell immunoreceptor with immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif domains (TIGIT) inhibitor in combination with an anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody has shown antitumor activity in solid tumors. AdvanTIG-105 (NCT04047862) is a phase 1/1b open-label study designed to assess the safety and preliminary antitumor activity of OCI, an anti-TIGIT monoclonal antibody (mAb), + TIS, an anti-PD-1 mAb, in pts with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. In the dose-escalation part, OCI + TIS was well tolerated with preliminary antitumor activity observed, and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of OCI 900 mg intravenously (IV) every three weeks (Q3W) + TIS 200 mg IV Q3W was established. We report results from the dose-expansion part (GC/GEJC Cohort 9) of the AdvanTIG-105 study. Methods: Eligible pts had histologically/cytologically confirmed stage IV GC/GEJC. Pts were excluded if they had squamous cell, undifferentiated or other histological types of GC, had GC/GEJC with positive HER2 expression, or if they had received any prior therapy for metastatic disease. Pts received either the RP2D of OCI + TIS with oxaliplatin + capecitabine Q3W for 6 cycles (C), followed by maintenance therapy with the RP2D of OCI + TIS, + capecitabine Q3W, or the RP2D of OCI + TIS with cisplatin + 5-fluorouracil Q3W for 6 C. Treatment continued until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response (DoR), disease control rate (DCR) per RECIST v1.1, and safety. Results: As of September 29, 2022, 60 pts with a median age of 61.5 years (range 35-82) were enrolled; 59 were efficacy evaluable. Median study follow-up was 31.1 weeks (range 1.4-78.4). ORR was 50.8% (95% CI: 37.5, 64.1); DCR was 84.7% (95% CI: 73.0, 92.8) with a median DoR of 8.1 months (95% CI: 4.5, not evaluable [NE]). Median PFS was 8.2 months (95% CI: 5.8, NE). In a subgroup analysis, ORR in pts with PD-L1 tumor area positivity (TAP) score ≥5% (n = 27) was 59.3% (95% CI: 38.8, 77.6), and 50.0% (95% CI: 30.7, 69.4) in pts with PD-L1 TAP < 5% (n = 28). All 60 pts reported ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), the most common being anemia (43.3%) and platelet count decreased (41.7%). In total, 43 pts (71.7%) had ≥grade 3 TEAEs and 28 (46.7%) had serious adverse events. TEAEs leading to discontinuation of TIS and OCI occurred in 5 (8.3%) pts. TEAEs led to death in 2 (3.3%) pts; one event (neutropenic sepsis) was related to chemo, while the other (pulmonary embolism) was not treatment related. Conclusions: OCI 900 mg + TIS 200 mg + chemo was generally well tolerated and showed encouraging antitumor activity in pts with stage IV GC/GEJC. Clinical trial information: NCT04047862 .
Abstract CT112: Durvalumab + tremelimumab in patients with metastatic urothelial cancer
Abstract Background: PD-L1 blockade with durvalumab (D) is approved as second-line therapy in platinum-refractory metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC). Adding CTLA-4 blockade with tremelimumab (T) may improve responses, particularly in pts with low PD-L1 expression. Here we report safety and efficacy in the mUC cohort of the dose-expansion phase of a phase I, multicenter, open-label study of D+T in pts with advanced solid tumors (NCT02261220). Methods: Pts with platinum-refractory mUC received D 20 mg/kg + T 1 mg/kg Q4W for 4 months, followed by D 10 mg/kg Q2W for a total of 12 months of treatment. The primary objectives were safety in the mUC cohort and antitumor activity in the subgroup with tumor cell and immune cell PD-L1 expression <25% (assessed by SP263 IHC assay). Secondary objectives included antitumor activity per RECIST v1.1 in other subgroups. Results: As of Oct 20 2017, 168 pts received treatment and had ≥24 weeks' follow-up. Median age was 65.5 yr (range, 35-85), 78.0% were male, 81.0% had visceral metastases (32.1% liver metastases) and 32.1% had received >1 prior line of chemotherapy. Median duration of follow-up was 11.6 mo. Treatment-related AEs occurred in 75.6% of pts and were Grade 3-4 in 28.6%. One pt died due to a treatment-related AE (pulmonary hemorrhage). Treatment-related AEs led to discontinuation of therapy in 11.9% of pts. Confirmed objective response rate (ORR) was 35/168 (20.8%) including 4 CRs. Responses occurred early (median 1.8 mo) and are durable (median DOR not reached, range 1.9-24.9 mo). At 6 months, the PFS rate was 25.4% and the OS rate was 60.9%. Median PFS was 1.9 mo and median OS was 9.5 mo. Clinical activity was seen regardless of PD-L1 status, but patients with either tumor or immune cell expression ≥25% had numerically higher response rates (29.4% vs 15.1%) and 6-month OS rates than those with <25% expression (Table). Conclusions: D+T had a manageable safety profile and encouraging antitumor activity and survival rate in previously treated mUC regardless of PD-L1 status.
