Abstract 1031P
Background
ANV419 is a potent and selective IL-2Rβ/γ selective agonist, designed to enable the delivery of high-dose IL-2 in a safe way. ANV419 leads to preferential expansion of CD8+ T and NK cells over Treg cells. ANV419-001 is an open-label, phase 1 dose escalation study of intravenous single-agent ANV419 in patients with relapsed/refractory advanced solid tumors.
Methods
A 3+3 dose escalation design was applied. Primary objective was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ANV419. Secondary objectives include efficacy using RECISTv1.1, characterization of pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and immunogenicity of ANV419. The DLT observation period was two weeks. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04855929.
Results
At the data cutoff (22 Mar 2023), 40 pts received ANV419 at 3, 6, 12 (n=1 each), 24 (n=5), 48 (n=3), 72 (n=3), 108 (n=6), 162 (n=3), 243 (n=6) and 364 μg/kg (n=5) Q2W and at 243 μg/kg Q3W (n=6). Patients were generally heavily pretreated (1-8 lines) and 75% received immune checkpoint inhibitors. Two DLTs (CRS G3, pemphigoid G3) occurred in 2 pts at 364 μg/kg. ANV419-related AEs occurred in 97.5% of pts;. 35% ≥G3, transient, self-limiting and allowing treatment continuation. The only G4 AEs were transient lymphopenia, no G5 AEs occurred. No AEs led to treatment discontinuation. The most frequent ANV419-related AEs (≥ 10% of pts) were pyrexia, chills, vomiting, nausea, CRS, increased liver enzyme levels, fatigue, diarrhea, hypotension, myalgia, rash and thrombocytopenia, mainly G1 and G2. PK data showed half-life up to 12 hrs at RP2D. ANV419 induced a dose-dependent preferential expansion of Ki67+ CD8+ T and NK cells over Ki67+ Treg cells. Among 39 pts evaluable for tumor response, SD according to RECIST v1.1 was demonstrated in 21 pts (52.5%), prolonged PR in one pt with advanced immunotherapy-resistant NSCLC.
Conclusions
Overall, ANV419 was well-tolerated. All events were self-limiting, reversible, or manageable with standard supportive care. ANV419 at a dose of 243 μg/kg was determined as MTD and RP2D. Preliminary anti-tumor activity was observed including durable response in NSCLC. Further studies assessing the antitumor activity of ANV419 in melanoma and myeloma are ongoing.
