Abstract 574P

Background

IBI363 is a PD-1/IL-2^α-bias bispecific antibody fusion protein which can block the PD-1 checkpoint and rejuvenate exhausted tumor-specific T cells by cis-activating the α-bias IL-2 receptor. IBI363 monotherapy showed acceptable safety and efficacy in pts with advanced non-microsatellite instability high/deficient mismatch repair (non-MSI-H/dMMR) CRC (Chen et al, abstract No. 3593 at 2024 ASCO annual meeting). We report initial safety and efficacy results of IBI363 + beva biosimilar in pts with advanced CRC in a phase I study.

Methods

Eligible pts with locally advanced or metastatic CRC (non-MSI-H/dMMR) who failed or intolerant of standard treatment were enrolled to receive IBI363 intravenously at 0.6-1.5 mg/kg + beva at 5/7.5 mg/kg. Primary objective was safety and tolerability; secondary objective was antitumor activity per RECIST v1.1. Data cutoff date was Apr 19, 2024.

Results

A total of 35 pts (males: 57.1%, median age: 53.0 yrs, liver metastasis: 54.3%; previous treatment lines ≥3: 62.9%; previous immunotherapy [IO]: 25.7%) were enrolled, including 3 pts at 0.6 mg/kg Q2W, 25 pts at 1 mg/kg Q2W, and 7 pts at 1.5 mg/kg Q3W. MSS was presented in 82.9% pts and microsatellite status were unknown in the remaining pts. Median treatment exposure was 8.9 weeks (range: 2.0-37.3). Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in all pts, with grade ≥3 TEAEs in 6 (17.1%) pts. Most common TEAEs (≥20%) were arthralgia (42.9%), rash (31.4%), cough (25.7%), hyperthyroidism (25.7%), myalgia (22.9%), and hypothyroidism (20.0%). Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) occurred in 9 (25.7%) pts including grade ≥3 irAEs in 1 (2.9%) pts. TEAE led to treatment discontinuation and death in 1 (2.9%) pts each. In 32 efficacy-evaluable pts (defined as pts with ≥1 post-baseline tumor assessment), ORR was 18.8% (95%CI: 7.2-36.4) and DCR was 65.6% (95%CI: 46.8-81.4). In 17 pts with liver metastasis, ORR and DCR were 11.8% (95%CI: 1.5-36.4) and 58.8% (95%CI: 32.9-81.6), respectively. In 8 IO-treated pts, ORR and DCR were 25.0% (95%CI: 3.2-65.1) and 62.5% (95%CI: 24.5-91.5), respectively.

Conclusions

IBI363 + beva showed acceptable safety and encouraging efficacy in pts with advanced CRC.
