Abstract 1043P
Background
TU2218 is a highly potent, oral dual inhibitor against TGFβ type I receptor (TGFβRI /ALK5) and VEGFR2. VEGF and TGF-β pathways play important roles in the function of TME, especially in immune tolerance inextricably related with poor outcomes of anti-PD-(L)1 therapy. This is a first-in-human study to investigate the safety and tolerability of TU2218 mono- and combination therapy with pembrolizumab.
Methods
This non-randomized, multinational, open-label study has been evaluating the safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary efficacy of TU2218 mono- and combination therapy with pembrolizumab in advanced solid tumors. The eligible patients were aged ≥ 18 years, ECOG (0 or 1), and had measurable tumors per RECIST 1.1. TU2218 monotherapy was planned at 6 dose levels (30, 60, 105, 150, 195, 270 mg/day) with 2 weeks on and 1 week off in 3-week cycles according to the BOIN method. The starting dose of TU2218 given with pembrolizumab was determined after yielding TRAEs of at least Grade 2 in severity during monotherapy using the traditional 3+3 design.
Results
Seventeen patients with advanced solid tumors received 5 different dose levels of monotherapy. Major demographics, treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and PK parameters are summarized in the table.

No TRAEs of Grade 3 or higher were reported while all Grade 2 TRAEs were tolerable in TU2218 monotherapy. Systemic exposure to TU2218 increased over-proportionally with the dose-escalation. The starting dose of TU2218 for the combination therapy with pembrolizumab was 105mg/day, with subsequent incremental doses of 150mg/day and 195mg/day. To date, clinical studies of TU2218 are ongoing.
Conclusions
TU2218, a first-in-class oral dual inhibitor against TGFβRI and VEGFR2, was well-tolerated in the monotherapy.
