Abstract 2228
Background
ABBV-181 is a humanized anti-PD1 monoclonal antibody; dose finding and early safety, PK and pharmacodynamic data have been reported (ESMO18). This report summarizes data from the head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) expansion cohorts in the Ph1 FIH study (NCT03000257).
Methods
Patients (pts) with previously treated, advanced HNSCC and NSCLC received ABBV-181 IV, 250 mg Q2W or 500 mg Q4W to progression. Response was assessed by RECIST v1.1 and iRECIST.
Results
As of April 2019, 81 pts were dosed.Table:

ABBV-181 related.
bnone considered related to ABBV-181. Most frequent G ≥ 1 AE (n): anemia (20), asthenia (20) and fatigue (16). ABBV-181 PK is approximately dose proportional, with comparable dose-normalized exposures at both doses; trough levels resulted in sustained PD-1 saturation on circulating CD4 T cells. Transient decreases in circulating T cells and increased Ki67+ CD8 T cells and serum CXCL9/CXCL10 were observed at both doses. In pts with ≥ 1 post baseline assessment, responses by investigator: 7/40 HNSCC pts (7 partial response, 6 by RECISTv.1.1, 1 by iRECIST), 6/36 NSCLC (5 PR, 1 complete response, all by RECIST v.1.1). 3 HNSCC and 2 NSCLC responders had PD-L1+ tumors.
Conclusions
Safety, PK and PD data support dosing ABBV-181 at 250 mg Q2W or 500 mg Q4W with expected biological and pharmacodynamic activity for an anti-PD-1 agent. Efficacy data demonstrate clinical activity per RECISTv.1.1 and iRECIST supporting continued development of ABBV-181.
