1598P - Xaluritamig, a STEAP1 x CD3 XmAb 2+1 immune therapy, in patients (pts) with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): Initial results from dose expansion cohorts in a phase I study

Background

Xaluritamig is a novel bispecific XmAb®2+1 T-cell engager targeting STEAP1-expressing cells such as in prostate cancer. In a dose exploration study, xaluritamig monotherapy showed encouraging efficacy and manageable safety in pts with mCRPC. Here, we report the initial safety and efficacy of 3 doses and schedules to select final dose for future development.

Methods

Eligible pts had mCRPC refractory to ≤2 prior novel hormonal therapies and 1–2 taxane regimens (≤6 lines), ECOG PS 0–1, and adequate organ function. Pts were randomized to receive xaluritamig intravenously to reach target doses of 0.75 mg once weekly (QW), 1.5 mg QW, or 1.5 mg twice weekly (Q2W), using a 2- or 3-step dosing approach in cycle 1. Primary endpoint was safety. Secondary endpoints included efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics.

Results

As of Feb 2, 2024, of the 104 pts enrolled, 99 received xaluritamig (median follow-up: 3.9 months; range: 0.1–9.1). Median age was 67 (37–86) years; 44 pts (44.4%) had received >3 prior lines of therapy, including prior taxane (85.9%). All pts experienced treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs). Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was the most common TRAE (77.8%), of which 76.8% events occurred in cycle 1, which resolved with standard of care management; no grade 4/5 CRS events. Common musculoskeletal inflammatory TRAEs were myalgia (60.6%; ≥ grade 3: 30.3%) and arthralgia (22.2%; ≥ grade 3: 3.0%). Efficacy results are shown in the table. Primary PK showed dose proportional increase to exposure. Table: 1598P

Conclusions

This randomized, dose-expansion phase confirmed the safety and efficacy findings from the dose-exploration phase in pts with heavily pretreated mCRPC. A target dose of 1.5 vs 0.75 mg improved the efficacy. Grade 3 AEs were mostly transient, manageable, and allowed treatment continuation in most pts. These data support continued development of this novel immunotherapy.
