Abstract 3419
Background
Fucosyl-GM1 (Fuc-GM1), a ganglioside with abundant yet restricted expression on the cell surface of SCLCs, is a potential target for therapeutic approaches. Here we present preliminary results from a Phase 1/2 study of BMS-986012, a first-in-class fully human IgG1 monoclonal antibody with enhanced ADCC that specifically binds to Fuc-GM1, for the treatment of SCLC.
Methods
Patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory SCLC after at least one line of prior therapy were enrolled. BMS-986012 was administered IV at flat doses of 70, 160, 400, and 1000 mg every 3 weeks (wk) during dose escalation. Pharmacokinetics (PK) and anti-drug antibodies (ADA) were assessed during cycle 1.
Results
Twenty-nine pts were treated across all doses. Median age was 63 yr (range: 26–81); 55% were female; 95% had a smoking history. Pts had received up to five lines of prior therapy; 52% had one prior line; 48% had 2 or more two prior lines. Nine pts were platinum refractory (≤3 mo from end of first line therapy to progression). No dose limiting toxicities or treatment-related grade 4 or 5 adverse events occurred. Treatment-related adverse events occurring in >10% of pts were pruritus, decreased appetite, and rash. Preliminary PK analysis suggests a linear dose-exposure relationship (Table). No ADAs were detected.
Summary of Single Dose Exposures of BMS-986012

Geom. = Geometric; CV = coefficient of variation
One confirmed complete response (CR; duration 53 wk; 70 mg dose level) and one confirmed partial response (PR; duration 17 wk; 400 mg dose level) were observed. Stable disease (SD) was reported in 4 pts. The CR and 2 SD occurred among the 9 platinum refractory pts.Conclusions
BMS-986012 demonstrates a manageable safety profile and resulted in objective responses in relapsed SCLC, including platinum refractory pts. Preliminary PK analysis showed dose-proportional and linear increase in exposure with moderate to high variability. Dose expansion is currently enrolling at 400 and 1000 mg.
