A Phase 1 Dose-Escalation Study of PF-06671008, a Bispecific T-Cell-Engaging Therapy Targeting P-Cadherin in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
FRONTIERS IN IMMUNOLOGY(2022)
Abstract
P-cadherin is a cell-cell adhesion molecule that is overexpressed in several solid tumors. PF-06671008 is a T-cell-redirecting bispecific antibody that engages both P-cadherin on tumors and CD3 epsilon on T cells and induces antitumor activity in preclinical models. We conducted a phase 1, open-label, first-in-human, dose-escalation study to characterize the safety and tolerability of PF-06671008, towards determining the recommended phase 2 dose. Adult patients with treatment-refractory solid tumors received PF-06671008 (1.5-400 ng/kg) as a weekly intravenous (IV) infusion on a 21-day/3-week cycle. Parallel cohorts evaluated dosing via subcutaneous injection (SC) or an IV-prime dose. Of the 27 patients enrolled in the study, 24 received PF-06671008 IV in escalating doses, two received SC, and one IV-prime. A dose-limiting toxicity of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) occurred in the 400-ng/kg IV group, prompting evaluation of SC and IV-prime schedules. In all, 25/27 patients who received PF-06671008 reported at least one treatment-related adverse event (TRAE); the most common were CRS (21/27), decreased lymphocyte count (9/27), and hypophosphatemia (8/27). Seven patients permanently discontinued treatment due to adverse events and no treatment-related deaths occurred. Cytokine peak concentrations and CRS grade appeared to positively correlate with C-max. Although the study was terminated due to limited antitumor activity, it provides important insights into understanding and managing immune-related adverse events resulting from this class of molecules.
