2648 Background: To characterize the safety and tolerability of PY314, an immunosuppressive macrophage depleting antibody, as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab in subjects with advanced refractory solid tumors including subject’s refractory to checkpoint inhibitors if approved for that indication. Methods: Two were evaluated in subjects with advanced solid tumors, single agent PY314 and PY314 in combination with 200 mg of pembrolizumab using a 3+3 dose escalation study design. Dosing was intravenous and administered once every 3-weeks, a defined cycle. Disease assessment by RECIST 1.1 was performed every 6 weeks. Each stratum included 4 dose levels of PY314 (1, 3, 10, and 20 mg/kg). Pharmacokinetics were evaluated at specified time points. Archival tumor tissue was analyzed for TREM2 expression by immunohistochemistry. Based on preclinical evaluation of TREM2 expression, HR+ HER2- and triple negative breast cancer, colorectal cancer, renal cell cancer, non-small cell lung cancer and gynecologic cancers were studied. Results: 28 subjects (median age 60 years [range 26-76], 22 females and 6 ) with an ECOG PS <2 were enrolled and all, but one was (1 subject withdrew consent after dosing). 15 subjects were treated with single agent PY314 and 13 were treated with the combination. No infusion-related reactions, dose limiting toxicities, suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions or high-grade treatment related adverse events (TRAEs) that resulted in treatment discontinuance was seen. 12 subjects experienced at least one TRAE, and in all but one subject, these were low grade. One subject experienced a treatment-related immune system disorder. serious adverse events, all unrelated to treatment. TREM2 expression in archival tumor ranged from 0.0-20%. PY314 pharmacokinetics were linear, dose proportional, unaffected by concomitant pembrolizumab and with a half-life of 8-9 days. Best radiographic response was stable disease seen in 11 subjects (39.3%) ranging in duration from 9-42 weeks. 6 subjects with stable disease have progressed and 5 remain on treatment. Conclusions: PY314 was well tolerated and has an excellent safety profile both as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab. A recommended dose for expansion was derived and enrollment in five prespecified cancers is ongoing. Clinical trial information: 04691375.

Abstract Purpose: To evaluate safety (primary endpoint), tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamic profile, and preliminary activity of the intravenous, pan-class I isoform PI3K/mTOR inhibitor PF-05212384 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Experimental Design: Part 1 of this open-label phase I study was designed to estimate the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) in patients with nonselected solid tumors, using a modified continual reassessment method to guide dose escalation. Objectives of part 2 were MTD confirmation and assessment of preliminary activity in patients with selected tumor types and PI3K pathway dysregulation. Results: Seventy-seven of the 78 enrolled patients received treatment. The MTD for PF-05212384, administered intravenously once weekly, was estimated to be 154 mg. The most common treatment-related adverse events (AE) were mucosal inflammation/stomatitis (58.4%), nausea (42.9%), hyperglycemia (26%), decreased appetite (24.7%), fatigue (24.7%), and vomiting (24.7%). The majority of patients treated at the MTD experienced only grade 1 treatment-related AEs. Grade 3 treatment-related AEs occurred in 23.8% of patients at the MTD. No treatment-related grade 4–5 AEs were reported at any dose level. Antitumor activity was noted in this heavily pretreated patient population, with two partial responses (PR) and an unconfirmed PR. Eight patients had long-lasting stable disease (&gt;6 months). Pharmacokinetic analyses showed a biphasic concentration–time profile for PF-05212384 (half-life, 30–37 hours after multiple dosing). PF-05212384 inhibited downstream effectors of the PI3K pathway in paired tumor biopsies. Conclusions: These findings demonstrate the manageable safety profile and antitumor activity of the PI3K/mTOR inhibitor PF-05212384, supporting further clinical development for patients with advanced solid malignancies.
