Exploration of genetic characterization in hyperprogressive disease after immunotherapy retreatment in a patient with LCNEC: A case report

Article

Author: Chen, Jialu ; Yang, Jiayao ; Zhang, Yao ; Shu, Qijin ; Shou, Liumei ; Shao, Tianyu

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have emerged as a promising therapeutic option for large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC). However, various studies have suggested a potential risk of hyperprogressive disease (HPD) in patients receiving ICI, which might be associated with gene alterations. Here, this is the first report on an unknown primary LCNEC patient who had achieved a long-term response from ICI treatment (atezolizumab), but developed HPD after tumor progression due to receiving another ICI agent (serplulimab). The mutation region of FAT4, SMARCA4, CYLD, CTNNB1, and KIT was altered prior to serplulimab treatment compared to before atezolizumab treatment. This case suggested a potential association between these mutated genes and HPD. Patients with the aforementioned genes should caution when selecting ICI treatment. These findings required further confirmation in a larger study cohort.

Insights into the mechanisms of serplulimab: a distinctive anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, in combination with a TIGIT or LAG3 inhibitor in preclinical tumor immunotherapy studies

Article

Author: Liu, Wei ; Xiong, Aiying ; Zhang, Xuehan ; Han, Chencheng ; Liu, Rui ; Zhang, Yizhou ; Zhang, Mengli ; Song, Ge ; Li, Qianhao ; Shan, Yongqiang ; Zhu, Jun ; Wang, Qingyu ; Hu, Chen ; Yang, Wan-Jen ; Wei, Ruicheng ; Yang, Xinyi

With more than 20 anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies currently marketed, anti-PD-1 therapy has become a cornerstone of tumor immunotherapy. These agents, however, exhibit notable disparities in their characteristics and clinical performance. For instance, in the field of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) where the majority of anti-PD-1 antibodies have yielded limited success, serplulimab produced impressive survival improvements and was approved for this indication by China's National Medical Products Administration. Serplulimab's marketing authorization application also received a positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanism underpinning serplulimab's superiority over its competitors remains elusive. We characterized the differences between serplulimab with approved PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) in terms of their binding features and functions in vitro and anti-tumor activity in vivo. Cellular pathways underlying the efficacy of serplulimab were also investigated. In comparison to competitors, serplulimab robustly induces PD-1 receptor endocytosis while fostering weaker PD-1-CD28 cis interactions. This phenomenon could mitigate the dephosphorylation of CD28 by SHP2, thereby facilitating sustained and robust T cell activation. While serplulimab and pembrolizumab exhibited similar performance in vitro and in vivo studies, serplulimab consistently demonstrated superior tumor killing efficacy compared to pembrolizumab upon co-administration with anti-TIGIT or anti-LAG3 inhibitors. Mechanistically, the serplulimab combination effectively reduces tumor microenvironment Treg cell populations, augments effector and memory T cell populations, and more potently modulates genes associated with diverse facets of the immune system, surpassing the effects of the pembrolizumab combination. In summary, our data underscore serplulimab as a differentiated PD-1 monoclonal antibody with best-in-class therapeutic potential.

Single-drug Chemotherapy Plus Immunotherapy as First-line Treatment for Stage Ⅳ Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Elderly Patients: A Phase II Clinical Trial UNICORN Study

Article

INTRODUCTION:

Lung cancer remains the most common malignancy and the leading cancer-related death among the elderly in China, which deserves more research attention. Immunotherapy combined with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy has been approved as the standard treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who are devoid of specific gene mutations or fusions. Given that patients with NSCLC over the age of 65 typically exhibit declining organ function and physical condition, they often showed reduced tolerance for this rigorous treatment regimen. However, the KEYNOTE-042 study illuminated a promising pathway: in patients testing positive for programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), immunotherapy alone has demonstrated a superior overall survival (OS) compared to platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. This suggests that moderating the intensity of chemotherapy and prioritizing immunotherapy may be a gentler alternative in elderly demographic.

PATIENTS AND METHODS:

This multicenter phase II clinical trial named UNICORN aimed to enroll 49 patients aged 65 and older, utilizing paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel for those with squamous NSCLC, and pemetrexed for those diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma. The treatment protocol entails 4 cycles of serplulimab plus chemotherapy followed by an extended regimen of serplulimab maintenance, spanning a total of 35 cycles. Primary endpoints of this study are progression-free survival (PFS), disease control rate (DCR) and the secondary endpoints are OS, objective control rate (ORR) and safety metrics.

CONCLUSION:

This is the first study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of serplulimab combined with either paclitaxel or pemetrexed in elderly treatment-naïve patients with stage IV NSCLC whose PD-L1 are positive.

Revenue Exceed RMB30.9 Billion with R&D Expenditure RMB3.9 Billion Continuing to Consolidate its Dominant Position In The fields of Breast Cancer and Lung Cancer SHANGHAI, Oct. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On October 29, Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical (Group) Co., Ltd. ("Fosun Pharma" or "the Group"; Stock Code: 600196.SH; 02196.HK), announced its operating performance for the first three quarters of 2024. From January to September 2024, Fosun Pharma achieved revenue of RMB30.91 billion, an increase of about 5.74% YoY after excluding COVID-related products. The net profit attributable to owners of the parent of the Group after deducting extraordinary gain or loss amounted to RMB1.84 billion, up by 24.58% YoY. In 2024, Fosun Pharma will further focus on innovative drugs and high-value devices, and continue to promote lean operations, cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and asset rationalization to optimize assets and financial structure, actively promote supply chain management and operational efficiency, and achieve healthy operating cash flow. In the first three quarters of 2024, the net cash flow from operating activities of Fosun Pharma was RMB2.99 billion, a year-on-year increase of 21.33%; the management expense ratio decreased by 0.15 percentage points YoY; excluding the impact of newly acquired companies, management expenses decreased by approximately RMB300 million on the same basis. Focusing on advantageous therapeutic areas with innovative R&D pipelines continue to advance In terms of innovative R&D, Fosun Pharma continues to focus on advantageous pipelines to achieve efficient results and continuous implementation of innovative products. In the first three quarters of 2024, Fosun Pharma's R&D expenditure totaled RMB3.92 billion. In particular, R&D expenses were RMB2.65 billion. In addition to independent R&D, the Group fully implemented an open R&D model, and incubated and invested in R&D projects by initiating/managing industrial funds and other diversified ways, so as to ensure the sustainability of innovation and R&D. Fosun Pharma's innovative drug business mainly covers the core therapeutic areas of solid tumors, hematological tumors and immuno-inflammatory diseases, with emphasis on the enhancement of the core technology platforms of antibody/ADCs, cellular therapy and small molecules, to create an open and global innovative R&D system, continuously enhance pipeline value, and promote the development and commercialization of its products. In the field of tumor immunotherapy, on September 13, 2024, Fosun Pharma announced it will acquire the 50% stake in Fosun Kite and will wholly own Fosun Kite (now renamed as "Fosun Kairos"). In the future, Fosun Kairos will serve as the core platform of Fosun Pharma's cell therapy, continue to focus on the field of tumor immunotherapy, as well as to promote the development and commercialization of existing licensed products, Axi-Cel (i.e. Fosun Kite's marketed product "Yi Kai Da") and Brexu-Cel (i.e. Fosun Kite's pipeline project FKC889), in Chinese mainland, Hong Kong SAR and Macau SAR with Kite Pharma. In the third quarter of 2024, Fosun Pharma's multiple independently developed innovative products and pipeline clinical trial results were announced in industry conferences and journals, further consolidating its dominant position in the fields of hematological tumors, breast cancer, lung cancer and other tumors. Particularly, the interim analysis results of the Phase III study of Foritinib Succinate (SAF-189s), an innovative drug independently developed to treat ALK-positiveb advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), were released during the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer ("WCLC"). The above-mentioned studies have found that the overall efficacy of Foritinib Succinate is good. Compared with crizotinib treatment, it can significantly improve PFS and reduce the risk of CNS progression. Its safety is controllable, and no new safety signals appeared after treatment. Faritinib Succinate is expected to break through the current clinical difficulties faced in the treatment of ALK-positive NSCLC and bring new treatment options to NSCLC patients. The multicenter real-world study of Fosun Pharma's self-developed serplulimab-based immunochemotherapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer was released at the 2024 WCLC. The ASTRUM-005R study provides additional empirical evidence to support the therapeutic value of serplulimab plus chemotherapy and complements the pivotal data from the ASTRUM-005 clinical trial. Additionally, during the reporting period, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use ("CHMP") of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) issued a positive opinion recommending approval for Fosun Pharma's self-developed serplulimab injection in combination with carboplatin and etoposide for the first-line treatment of adult patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). The CHMP's opinion will be submitted to the European Commission (EC) as a reference for marketing authorization approval. Results of the phase 2 study of HLX22, an innovative anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody (mAb), in combination with Han Qu You (trastuzumab) and chemotherapy for the first-line treatment of HER2-positive advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer were presented on 2024 ESMO Gastrointestinal Cancers Congress (ESMO GI) and MED, a flagship clinical and translational research monthly journal by Cell Press. The results showed that add HLX22 to HLX02 (trastuzumab) and chemotherapy as first-line therapy improved efficacy in HER2-positive G/GEJ cancer patients with manageable safety. In September 2024, Fosun Pharma announced the Biologics License Application ("BLA") for the licensed product RT002 (DaxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm, Chinese trademark: 达希斐®) for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines associated with corrugator and/or procerus muscle activity in adult patients, was approved by the National Medical Products Administration ("NMPA"), becoming the first DaxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm approved for marketing in Chinese mainland. Additionally, the results of a Phase III multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study conducted in China for the treatment of moderate to severe glabellar lines were published in the Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery (JPRAS).
