Abstract 53P

Background

IOA-244 is a highly selective PI3Kδ inhibitor with a differentiated chemical mechanism of action from other PI3K inhibitors. IOA-244 is currently being investigated in patients with solid tumors and lymphoma (NCT04328844). Here, we present preclinical and initial clinical data in lymphomas.

Methods

Anti-proliferative activity by MTT assay at 72h. Transcriptome analysis by total and targeted RNA-Seq on Illumina platform. Follicular lymphoma patients (pts) were treated at 20 mg and 80 mg QD continuous dosing and assessed for safety.

Results

IOA-244 showed moderate dose-dependent anti-proliferative activity, measured as area under the curve, across 66 human B and T cell lymphoma models, with IC50s < 10 mM in 18 cell lines. The activity correlated with PI3Kδ expression as measured by total RNA-Seq (R2=0.18, P=0.0009; 59 B and T cell lymphomas) or by HTG EdgeSeq Oncology Biomarker panel (R2=0.13, P=0.028; 36 B cell lymphomas). In MCL SP53 cells, IOA-244 (5μM; 24, 48, 72h) downregulated BCR, MYD88, NF-κB, MTOR and NOTCH signaling and upregulated cell cycle arrest genes (adj.P<10-10). Changes overlapped with signatures obtained with other PI3K and BTK inhibitors (adj.P <10-10). IOA-244 was then combined with 474 compounds (each given at 5μM) in two cell lines (MCL, SP-53; cutaneous T cell lymphoma, HH) and increased anti-proliferative activity was observed for combinations with inhibitors of other kinases, chemotherapy as well as metabolic and nuclear targets. NHL-FL pts treated with 20mg QD (4/4; 2 female and 2 males) and 80mg QD daily (4/4; 3 female and 1 male) had no DLT. Transient platelet reduction (G3) (N=1), AST/ALT elevation (G2) and Neutropenia (G3) (N=1) were observed in 3/8 pts, which returned to baseline without dose modifications.

Conclusions

Single-agent IOA-244 has moderate activity in vitro in lymphoma, correlated with PI3Kδ expression. Given its favorable monotherapy safety profile, IOA-244 may be used in combination with drugs identified in the present pharmacological screen.
