TPS1122 Background: Treatment options for patients (pts) with unresectable or metastatic BC have improved with the development of novel targeted therapies including trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), an ADC directed against HER2 with a cytotoxic topoisomerase I inhibitor as a payload. Currently, there are limited treatment options for pts with HER2+ or HER2-low metastatic BC that has progressed on T-DXd. BB-1701 is an ADC consisting of a monoclonal antibody targeting HER2 with eribulin (microtubule inhibitor) as a payload that is capable of exerting a bystander effect. A first-in-human dose-finding Study 101 of BB-1701 is ongoing. Here we describe Study 205, an open label, multicenter, phase 2 study of BB-1701 in pts with HER2+ or HER2-low unresectable or metastatic BC who have disease progression after treatment with T-DXd. Methods: Study 205 (NCT06188559) includes dose-optimization and dose-expansion parts for BB-1701. Eligible pts must have histologically confirmed HER2+ or HER2-low, unresectable or metastatic BC, with measurable disease per RECIST v1.1. Prior treatment must include 1–3 prior chemotherapy-based regimens for unresectable or metastatic BC, including T-DXd. The primary objectives of the dose-optimization part include determining the recommended dose (RD) and evaluating safety and tolerability of BB-1701. The RD will be assessed by randomly assigning ~50 pts into 1 of 3 dosing cohorts (1.6 mg/kg on day 1 Q3W, 0.8 mg/kg on days 1 and 8 Q3W, and 1.2 mg/kg on day 1 Q3W; IV) in a 2:2:1 ratio. Randomization will be stratified by HER2 status (HER2+ vs. HER2-low) documented prior to T-DXd treatment. The dose-expansion part will enroll ~85 pts at RD; the primary objective includes evaluating the efficacy of BB-1701 at the RD. In both study parts, secondary objectives include assessment of additional efficacy measures (i.e., duration of response [DOR], progression free survival [PFS], overall survival [OS], disease control rate [DCR], clinical benefit rate [CBR], and time to response [TTR]), and pharmacokinetics. Efficacy endpoints will be assessed per RECIST v1.1 by the investigator during the dose-optimization part or by Blinded Independent Central Review during the dose-expansion part. Safety assessments will consist of recording, monitoring, and grading of adverse events (AEs) based on CTCAE v5.0, AEs of special interest, and serious AEs. In both study parts, exploratory objectives will include evaluation of biomarkers of response to BB-1701 and BB-1701 immunogenicity; other efficacy measures (i.e., PFS on the next line of therapy) and population pharmacokinetics will be analyzed in the dose-expansion part only. Pt enrollment is currently open. Clinical trial information: NCT06188559 .

7109 Background: We previously reported results of treating MF patients with 3 cycles of 300, 400, or 500 mg of SAR302503 (NCT01420770; Blood 2012;120:21 Abs 2837). This is a report of efficacy and safety after 6 cycles. Methods: Patients ≥18 years of age with intermediate-2 or high-risk MF and splenomegaly were eligible. SAR302503 is administered orally, once a day in consecutive 4-week cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Spleen response (≥35% reduction in spleen volume vs baseline) was assessed by MRI/CT (blinded independent central review). Results: 31 patients were enrolled (n=10 in the 300 and 400 mg groups; n=11 to 500 mg). Risk status was balanced in all but the 300 mg group (70% high-risk). Most patients were JAK2V617F positive (90%) and blood transfusion independent (81%). Spleen response rates at the end of cycle (EOC) 6 (secondary end point) were 30% (3/10) in the 300 mg group, 60% (6/10) with 400 mg, and 55% (6/11) with 500 mg compared with EOC 3 rates of 30%, 50%, and 64%, respectively. One patient on 500 mg who had a spleen response at EOC 3 (39% reduction), but not at EOC 6 (25% reduction) had dose reductions to 200 mg due to anemia. Median number of cycles was 13 (range, 2–17) and 24 patients have been on treatment >12 months. SAR302503 reduced baseline constitutional symptoms at the EOC 3, with the greatest responses for night sweats in 14/15 patients (93%), itching 10/14 (71%), early satiety and abdominal pain, each in 10/18 (56%). Most common adverse events were anemia and diarrhea, with grade 3–4 rates of 58% and 13%, respectively. The rate of grade 3–4 thrombocytopenia was 16%. There was no grade 3–4 neutropenia. The diarrhea rate tended to decrease after the first 2 treatment cycles. There have been no reports of withdrawal syndrome after stopping SAR302503. Median JAK2V617F allele burden was 93% at baseline, 87% at the EOC 3, and 78% at EOC 6 in 19/26 patients who had available samples. The expression of 22 of 97 cytokines was significantly regulated (≥1.5 fold difference; p<0.05) after cycle 1. Conclusions: In this Phase II trial, continued treatment with SAR302503 was associated with clinically meaningful reductions in splenomegaly. Symptom data will be updated. Clinical trial information: NCT01420770.

Abstract Background Fedratinib (SAR302503) is a JAK2-selective inhibitor that has provided clinically meaningful reductions in MF-associated splenomegaly and symptoms in Phase I and II studies (J Clin Oncol 2011;29:789. Haematologica 2013;98:S1113). Here, we present efficacy and safety data from the Phase III JAKARTA study of fedratinib versus placebo in patients with MF (NCT01437787). Methods In this international double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-arm study, patients aged ≥18 years with IPSS intermediate-2 or high-risk MF, platelet count ≥50 × 109/L, and splenomegaly were randomized (1:1:1) to receive placebo or fedratinib 400 mg or 500 mg, orally, once daily, in consecutive 4-week cycles. Patients who received placebo were eligible to cross-over to fedratinib (randomized 1:1 to 400 mg or 500 mg) following 6 cycles of treatment, or prior to Cycle 6 if the patient had disease progression. The primary endpoint was spleen response rate (RR) (≥35% reduction in spleen volume from baseline measured by MRI or CT at Week 24, and confirmed 4 weeks later). Secondary endpoints included symptom RR (≥50% reduction in total symptom score from baseline at Week 24, measured through a daily electronic eDiary using the modified Myelofibrosis Symptom Assessment Form [Cancer 2011;117:4869. Blood 2011;118:401]), and safety of fedratinib. Results A total of 289 patients were randomized: median age 65 years; 59% male; 63% primary MF; 48% high-risk MF; 67% JAK2V617F positive; 16% platelet count <100 × 109/L; median baseline spleen volume 2568 mL (range 316–8244); median baseline total symptom score 14.7 (0–57). Median (range) exposures for placebo, 400 mg and 500 mg groups were 24 (2–34), 30 (1–55) and 28 (1–60) weeks, respectively. Spleen RRs at Week 24 (placebo 1%; 400 mg 47%; 500 mg 49%), and confirmed at Week 28 (placebo 1%; 400 mg 36%; 500 mg 40%), were significantly (p<0.0001) higher in both fedratinib groups compared with placebo (Table). Nineteen patients had a spleen response at Week 24 not confirmed 4 weeks later (spleen reduction 25–35% [n=10]; image not available/evaluable [n=8]; image taken outside time window [n=1]). Spleen RRs by baseline platelet level are shown in the table. Patients treated with fedratinib had significantly (p<0.0001) greater improvements in MF symptoms compared with placebo (Table). The most common all grade non-hematologic treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was diarrhea (16%, 66% and 56% of patients in the placebo, 400 mg and 500 mg groups, respectively). Grade 3/4 diarrhea was reported in 5% of patients in both the 400 mg and 500 mg dose groups. The most common hematologic TEAE was anemia (any grade 91%, 99% and 98%; Grade 3/4 25%, 43% and 60% in the placebo, 400 mg and 500 mg groups, respectively). Rates of Grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia were 9% (placebo), 17% (400 mg), and 27% (500 mg). Incidences of Grade 3/4 liver function tests (placebo/400 mg/500 mg) were: bilirubin, 2%/2%/1%; ALT, 0%/3%/3%; and AST, 1%/2%/2%. Overall treatment discontinuation rates up to 24 weeks of treatment were 25% (placebo), 22% (400 mg) and 32% (500 mg). Twenty-five patients died during the study (10, 5 and 10 in the placebo, 400 mg and 500 mg groups, respectively); the most common causes of death: disease progression (placebo [n=5]; 400 mg [n=3]; 500 mg [n=4]) and adverse events (placebo [n=4]; 400 mg [n=1]; 500 mg [n=4]). Conclusions In this Phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled, 3-arm study of 289 MF patients, treatment with fedratinib 400 mg or 500 mg once-daily demonstrated clinically meaningful and statistically significant reductions in splenic volume and MF-associated symptom burden versus placebo. Fedratinib had an acceptable safety profile, with the adverse events reported consistent with those observed in previous studies. This study was sponsored by Sanofi.

Abstract Abstract 3838 Background: SAR302503 (SAR503, formerly TG101348), a potent, oral JAK2-selective inhibitor was studied in a Phase I/II trial for the treatment of patients with high- or intermediate-risk primary, post-polycythemia vera (PV) and post-essential thrombocythemia (ET) myelofibrosis (MF). SAR503 was administered orally once daily in 28-day cycles. Eligibility criteria included platelet count of ≥50 × 109/L. Interim safety and efficacy data from this study up to April 2010 have been previously published (JCO 2011, 29(7):789–796). The aim of this presentation is to report updated safety and efficacy of ongoing patients as well as an analysis of the JAK2V617F allele burden in this cohort. Results: Overall, 59 subjects (median age 64 years) were treated. Forty four patients had PMF, 12 post-PV MF and 3 post-ET MF; 86% were JAK2 V617F-positive. Median palpable spleen size was 18 cm at study enrollment. Twenty eight patients were treated in the dose-escalation cohort (30–800 mg administered as a single daily dose); thirty one patients were treated at the MTD (680 mg) in the dose confirmation cohort. 43/59 patients (73%) completed 6 cycles of treatment and continued treatment on the extension study. Currently, 22 patients (37%) remain on treatment with a median number of 28.5 cycles (24–41 range) and a median of last dose of 440 mg/day. Safety: Treatment-emergent toxicities in cycle 1–6 have been previously reported; toxicities were dose-dependent and generally alleviated with dose-reduction. Five patients discontinued treatment beyond cycle 6 for treatment-related adverse events: thrombocytopenia, depression, mental status changes, creatinine elevation and subdural hematoma. For the subgroup of patients with a baseline platelet count between 50–100 × 109/L (n =13; median 73, range 51–94); the platelet count at defined times points during follow up was: cycle 3; median 50, range 21–138 (p=0.09) and cycle 6; median 47, range 13–85 (p=0.01). Despite 7 of the 13 patients being treated at ≥680 mg/day, only 2 instances of Grade 4 thrombocytopenia were noted in this group Spleen response: As previously reported, spleen responses were seen early, usually within first 3 cycles, with half or more patients in each dose level ≥240 mg/day showing a durable ≥50% decrease in palpable spleen size. Spleen size (mean, median, range, and proportion with ≥50% reduction) at the following time points was: Baseline (n=58; 18.33cm, 18cm, 4–38cm, NA) ; 6 months (n=57; 9.05cm, 9cm, 0–30cm, 54.4%;) 12 months (n=42; 8.55cm, 9cm, 0–28cm, 66.7%) 18 months (n=36; 8.03cm, 8.5cm, 0–33cm, 52.8%); 24 months (n=31; 8.10cm, 8cm, 0–30cm, 54.8%,) 30 months (n=18; 6cm, 7.5cm, 0–16cm, 61.1%,and) 36 months (n=9; 5.89cm, 3cm, 0–16cm, 66.7%). JAK2V617F allele burden: We previously reported a significant decrease in JAK2V617F allele burden at the end of cycles 6 and 12. A durable decrease was also demonstrable after 24 cycles of treatment (n =21; median 9%, range 0–100%) relative to baseline (n =51; median 20%, range 3–100%) (p=0.03). Similarly, for patients with JAK2 V617F allele burden >20% at baseline; there was a significant decrease after cycle 24 (n =12; median 21%, range 6–100%) relative to baseline (n =23; median 60%, range 23–100%) (p=0.03). Conclusions: SAR503 is safe and efficacious treatment with long term effect on spleen size and JAK2V617F allele burden in patients with high- and intermediate-risk myelofibrosis. Additional follow up information will be updated at the time of meeting.

Abstract Abstract 2837 Introduction: Treatment with the JAK2 selective inhibitor SAR302503 reduced spleen size, disease-related symptoms, and the JAK2 V617F allele burden, with an acceptable safety profile in patients with primary MF, post-PV MF, or post-ET MF in a Phase I/II study (J Clin Oncol 2011;29:789, ASH 2011; Abs 3838). The objective of this Phase II study is to assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of 3 doses of SAR302503. Methods: Patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk primary MF, post-PV MF, or post-ET MF were randomized to 1 of 3 dose groups of SAR302503 (300, 400, or 500 mg per day). Eligibility criteria included age ≥18 years, ECOG PS 0–2, and an enlarged spleen (length ≥5 cm). SAR302503 was taken orally, once a day, in consecutive 28-day cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint is the absolute change in spleen volume at the end of cycle 3 assessed by MRI with independent central review. Secondary endpoints include spleen response (≥35% reduction in spleen volume vs baseline), safety, symptom response (MPN-SAF), PK, and PD (changes in leukocyte pSTAT3). Results: From August–December 2011, at total of 31 patients were enrolled (n=10 in the 300 and 400 mg groups; n=11 to 500 mg). Risk status (intermediate-2 vs high) was balanced in the 400 mg and 500 mg groups (∼50%), whereas the 300 mg group had more high-risk patients (70%). The majority of patients (88% to 91%) had the JAK2 V617F mutation and most (∼80%) were blood transfusion independent. Mean (median) percentage reductions in spleen volume vs baseline at the end of cycle 3 were 30% (26%) in the 300 mg group, 33% (31%) with 400 mg, and 42% (38%) with 500 mg. A spleen response at the end of cycle 3 was seen in 30% of patients (3/10) in the 300 mg group, 50% (5/10) in the 400 mg group, and 64% (7/11) in the 500 mg group. Patients with constitutional symptoms at baseline in all groups reported a symptom response at the end of cycle 3, with at least a 2-point improvement in or resolution of night sweats in 93% (14/15) of patients, itching in 71% (10/14), early satiety in 56% (10/18), abdominal pain in 56% (10/18), and abdominal discomfort in 50% (10/20). Safety was evaluated in all patients. The most common grade 3–4 hematological adverse event (laboratory) was anemia, with rates across the 300, 400, and 500 mg doses of 33%, 30%, and 55%, respectively. Rates of grade 3–4 thrombocytopenia were 20%, 0, and 9%. There was no grade 3–4 neutropenia. Most common grade 3–4 nonhematological events were diarrhea (10%, 20%, 0), nausea (10%, 10%, 0), and vomiting (10%, 10%, 0). Adverse events in the 300 mg group led to discontinuation in 2 patients: 1 patient had grade 3 anemia, and 1 patient with pre-existing intermittent mild transaminase elevations and polyarthritis had hepatic failure, but completely recovered after discontinuation. No other grade 3–4 increases of AST, ALT, or bilirubin were observed. No deaths were due to an adverse event. Following repeated once-daily oral doses, SAR302503 exposure increased in a dose-dependent manner, with a median time to maximum plasma concentration of 2 to 3 hours. Steady state was achieved by cycle 1 day 15 (C1D15), with a 2.95- to 3.88-fold accumulation of drug. Time-dependent pSTAT3 inhibition was observed at all doses, with the highest mean percentage decreases from baseline (range) occurring at C1D15 (44% to 52%) and C2D1 (40% to 51%). The relationship between PK and PD pSTAT3 suppression can be described by an Emax model. There was also a correlation between percentage of pSTAT3 inhibition and spleen response rate at C1D15 and C2D1 and evidence of a steady state exposure-response relationship for spleen volume reduction at the end of cycle 3. Conclusions: In this Phase II trial, treatment with SAR302503 was associated with clinically meaningful reductions in splenomegaly and improvements in constitutional symptoms. SAR302503 was generally well tolerated in this trial and adverse events were consistent with the known safety profile. Time-dependent decreases in pSTAT3 and exposure-response correlations can be demonstrated across the three doses tested.

Abstract Background We previously reported that patients with MF enrolled in a randomized Phase II study of fedratinib (SAR302503) (ARD11936; NCT01420770) had clinically meaningful reductions in splenomegaly and improvements in MF-associated constitutional symptoms after 24 weeks of treatment (Haematologica 2013;98:S1113). Here, we report updated efficacy and safety results from this study after 48 weeks of treatment (end of Cycle 12). Methods Patients with intermediate risk-2 or high-risk MF were randomized to receive once-daily fedratinib at doses of 300 mg, 400 mg, or 500 mg, for consecutive 4-weekly cycles, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Eligible patients were aged ≥18 years, with palpable splenomegaly (5 cm below costal margin), and a platelet count ≥50 × 109/L. The primary measure for this study was percent change in spleen volume from baseline at the end of Cycle 3 (Blood 2012:120;Abstract 2837. Haematologica 2013;98:S1113). Endpoints for the current analysis included spleen response (≥35% reduction in spleen volume from baseline, assessed by a blinded independent central review by MRI), safety, and changes in bone marrow fibrosis (BMF). Results A total of 31 patients were randomized and treated: median age 63 years, 52% male, 58% primary MF, 58% high-risk MF, 90% JAK2V617F positive. The median numbers of treatment cycles were 12, 14, and 13 in the 300 mg, 400 mg and 500 mg dose groups, respectively, with median durations of exposure of 48.2, 56.2, and 52.4 weeks. At the cut-off date for this analysis, 21 patients (68%) remained on treatment; the most common reasons for treatment discontinuation were adverse events (AEs) (n=5) and withdrawal of consent (n=2). Overall, 58% (18/31) of patients achieved a spleen response at any time during treatment. The median spleen response duration was >35 weeks at all doses (Table). At Week 48, a spleen response was achieved by 30% (3/10), 80% (8/10), and 45% (5/11) of patients in the 300 mg, 400 mg, and 500 mg groups, respectively. Responses were generally maintained across all treatment groups. From Week 24 to Week 48 two additional patients achieved a spleen response (both in the 400 mg group), while one patient in the 500 mg group did not maintain a response (this patient had a fedratinib dose reduction to 200 mg). Changes in BMF up to Week 48 are being evaluated. The most common non-hematologic AE was diarrhea, with a Grade 3 rate of 13% (4/31 patients) but no Grade 4 cases were recorded. The rates of diarrhea decreased after the first cycle of treatment; from Cycle 2, the incidence of diarrhea (any grade) did not exceed 16% (5/31) at any cycle, and only one case of diarrhea was reported at Week 48 (end of Cycle 12). Anemia was the most-common hematologic toxicity, with a Grade 3 rate of 58% (18/31); no Grade 4 cases were reported. All Grades thrombocytopenia occurred in 55% (17/31) of patients, Grade 3 in three patients, and Grade 4 in two patients. Discontinuation of treatment due to AEs occurred in five patients over the 48 weeks (300 mg [n=2]; 400 mg [n=2]; 500 mg [n=1]), with two cases reported after Week 24 (dyspnea and leukocytosis [400 mg]; anemia and thrombocytopenia [500 mg]). There were 2 deaths (one in the 300 mg group due to unknown reasons [85 days after fedratinib discontinuation] and one in the 500 mg group due to disease progression [36 days after fedratinib discontinuation]). No cases of leukemic transformation were reported. Conclusions This updated analysis of the ARD11936 Phase II trial shows that treatment with fedratinib results in durable reductions in splenomegaly in patients with MF. No additional safety signals were observed with prolonged exposure to fedratinib. This study was sponsored by Sanofi.
