BACKGROUND:

QL1706 (PSB205) is a single bifunctional MabPair (a novel technical platform) product consisting of two engineered monoclonal antibodies (anti-PD-1 IgG4 and anti-CTLA-4 IgG1), with a shorter elimination half-life (t_1/2) for CTLA-4. We report results from a phase I/Ib study of QL1706 in patients with advanced solid tumors who failed standard therapies.

METHODS:

In the phase I study, QL1706 was administered intravenously once every 3 weeks at one of five doses ranging from 0.3 to 10 mg/kg, and the maximum tolerated dose, recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of QL1706 were investigated. In the phase Ib study, QL1706 was administered at the RP2D intravenously every 3 weeks, and the preliminary efficacies in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), cervical cancer (CC), and other solid tumors were evaluated.

RESULTS:

Between March 2020 and July 2021, 518 patients with advanced solid tumors were enrolled (phase I, n = 99; phase Ib, n = 419). For all patients, the three most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were rash (19.7%), hypothyroidism (13.5%), and pruritus (13.3%). The TRAEs and immune-related adverse events (irAEs) of grade ≥ 3 occurred in 16.0% and 8.1% of patients, respectively. In phase I, 2 of 6 patients in the 10mg/kg group experienced dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) (grade 3 thrombocytopenia and grade 4 immune-mediated nephritis), so the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was reached at 10 mg/kg. The RP2D was determined to be 5 mg/kg based on comprehensive analysis of tolerability, PK/PD, and efficacy. For all patients who received QL1706 at the RP2D, the objective response rate (ORR) and median duration of response were 16.9% (79/468) and 11.7 months (8.3-not reached [NR]), respectively; and the ORRs were 14.0% (17/121) in NSCLC, 24.5% (27/110) in NPC, 27.3% (15/55) in CC, 7.4% (2/27) in colorectal cancer, 23.1% (6/26) in small cell lung cancer. For immunotherapy-naive patients, QL1706 exhibited promising antitumor activities, especially in NSCLC, NPC, and CC, with ORRs of 24.2%, 38.7%, and 28.3%, respectively.

CONCLUSIONS:

QL1706 was well tolerated and demonstrated promising antitumor activity in solid tumors, especially in NSCLC, NPC, and CC patients. It is currently being evaluated in randomized phase II (NCT05576272, NCT05179317) and phase III (NCT05446883, NCT05487391) trials. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04296994 and NCT05171790.

Abstract:

First-line chemoimmunotherapy (with or without bevacizumab) has improved outcomes in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, this open-label, multi-cohort phase II study (NCT05329025) was done to investigate the safety and efficacy of QL1706 (a single bifunctional MabPair product against PD-1 and CTLA-4) and chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in this population. Patients were enrolled into five different cohorts based on genotype (cohorts 1-4, epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR] wild-type; cohort 5, EGFR-mutant and progressed on EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors [TKIs]). Between June 11, 2021 and December 29, 2021, 91 patients were enrolled. Most frequent treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) included decreased appetite (60 [65.9%]), anemia (60 [65.9%]), infusion-related reactions (48 [52.7%]), and pruritus (44 [48.4%]). Grade ≥ 3 TRAEs occurred in 30 (33.0%) patients. Twenty-seven (45%) patients with wild-type EGFR achieved partial response (PR) (objective response rate [ORR] = 45%) and had a median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 6.8 months (95% CI: 5.2-9.7). For 31 patients harboring mutated EGFR, 17 (54.8%) achieved PR (ORR = 54.8%), with an mPFS of 8.5 months (95% CI: 5.72-not evaluable). Overall, QL1706 plus chemotherapy, regardless of having bevacizumab, was generally tolerable and had promising antitumor activity for EGFR wild-type advanced NSCLC in first-line setting. Moreover, QL1706 plus chemotherapy and bevacizumab showed favorable antitumor activity for patients who had EGFR mutated NSCLC but failed in TKI therapy, demonstrating a potential for treating this population.

Case Report: Immune checkpoint inhibitor-related vitiligo-like depigmentation in non-melanoma advanced cancer: A report of three cases and a pooled analysis of individual patient data

Author: Wu, Longqiu ; Rao, Hui ; Wen, Xuejiao ; Huang, Li ; Guo, Zheng ; Zeng, Xiaoli

Background:

Vitiligo-like depigmentation is a common skin adverse event in patients receiving immunotherapy for malignant melanoma, but has been rarely reported in patients with non-melanoma malignancies. To better understand this immune-related adverse event, we reviewed a series of cases of immunotherapy induced vitiligo-like depigmentation in patients with cancers other than malignant melanoma.

Case presentation:

We report three cases of vitiligo-like depigmentation after immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment in gastric adenocarcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. The first case was treated with camrelizumab, the second was treated with QL1706 injection and sintilimab, and the third was treated with tislelizumab. Pembrolizumab, nivolumab, and ipilimumab caused the majority of vitiligo-like depigmentation, and all three of our patients experienced similar vitiligo-like depigmentation after taking other immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Methods:

Three patients who presented with vitiligo-like depigmentation after treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors were selected. The clinical features, including radiological and histological examination, and the treatment process were reviewed. Eighteen previously published cases of vitiligo-like depigmentation were also used to analyze the results. The severity of vitiligo-like depigmentation in these cases was graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5.0.

Results:

Vitiligo-like depigmentation occurred in 13 men (61.90%) and 8 women (38.10%), aged from 46 to 79 years, with an average age of 69.9 years. Of the 21 reviewed cases, vitiligo-like depigmentation was described in lung cancer (13/21, 61.90%), clear cell renal cell carcinoma (2/21, 9.52%), acute myeloid leukemia (1/21, 4.76%), cholangiocarcinoma (1/21, 4.76%), urothelial carcinoma (1/21, 4.76%), oral squamous cell carcinoma (1/21, 4.76%), esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (1/21, 4.76%), and gastric adenocarcinoma (1/21, 4.76%). The severity of vitiligo-like depigmentation after immunotherapy was unrelated to sex, age, cancer type, previous autoimmune diseases, and medication.

Conclusions:

Vitiligo-like depigmentation is a non-specific skin adverse event in melanoma immunotherapy, but arises as a direct result of treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Vitiligo-like depigmentation has an irregular location, is not limited to direct sunlight cracks, and has also been reported on hair on the head, eyelashes, and eyebrows. People without any skin or autoimmune diseases can also experience vitiligo-like depigmentation after immunotherapy; the incidence of which is irrespective of sex, age, cancer type, previous autoimmune diseases, and medication.

Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Overview Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most prevalent form of lung cancer, originating in the tissues of the lungs. Unlike small cell lung cancer, which grows rapidly, NSCLC typically develops more slowly but often spreads to other parts of the body by the time it is diagnosed, emphasizing the need for early detection and treatment. Small-cell lung cancer derives its name from the small, round appearance of its cells under a microscope, while the cells in NSCLC are larger. Despite its slower growth, NSCLC is frequently diagnosed at an advanced stage, further underscoring the importance of early intervention. In the United States, approximately 230,000 people are diagnosed with lung cancer annually, and it accounts for an estimated 135,000 deaths each year. Lung cancer causes more deaths than prostate, breast, brain, and colorectal cancers combined. It is the leading cause of cancer deaths in men and the second most common in women. However, these figures are declining, largely due to anti-smoking initiatives and reduced tobacco use. The classification of lung tumors is based on the 2015 World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines, which utilize immunohistochemistry and light microscopy to guide treatment decisions and predict outcomes. NSCLC encompasses several subtypes, including adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Adenocarcinoma, the most common subtype, accounts for nearly half of all lung cancer cases. Squamous cell carcinoma, once the most prevalent, typically originates in the tracheobronchial tree but is now more frequently found in peripheral lung areas. Large cell carcinoma is a diagnosis of exclusion, characterized by poor differentiation and lack of specific classification through immunohistochemistry or electron microscopy. The causes of NSCLC can be divided into avoidable and unavoidable risk factors. Tobacco use remains the most significant preventable risk factor, while other causes include alcohol consumption, exposure to secondhand smoke, asbestos, radon, arsenic, chromium, nickel, ionizing radiation, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Diagnosis involves a comprehensive blood count (CBC), a complete metabolic panel (CMP), and imaging studies. Hypercalcemia or elevated alkaline phosphatase may indicate metastasis to bones. Initial imaging with a chest X-ray can help identify nonspecific signs, followed by computed tomography (CT) for detailed characterization. A tissue biopsy is essential for confirming the diagnosis through histopathologic and immunohistochemistry evaluation. Treatment options for NSCLC include standard therapies like surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, as well as newer approaches like laser therapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT), and cryosurgery. The choice of treatment depends on the cancer's stage, the patient's functional status, comorbidities, and the molecular characteristics of the tumor. Surgery is often required for localized cases, while advanced stages may call for a combination of therapies. Participation in clinical trials can also offer access to emerging treatments. Managing NSCLC requires a collaborative, interprofessional approach, beginning with prevention. Primary care providers play a critical role in smoking cessation counseling and early detection through lung cancer screening, which can improve prognosis by identifying the disease before it progresses to advanced stages.

Qilu Pharmaceutical Showcases QL1706 Clinical Trial Outcomes in Oral Presentation at ESGO 2024

JINAN, China, March 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On 8 March local time, during the 25th European Society of Gynecological Oncology (ESGO) Conference (ESGO 2024) in Spain, Qilu Pharmaceutical unveiled the Phase II clinical trial results for iparomlimab and tuvonralimab (QL1706) in an oral presentation. This trial, known as DUBHE-C-206, recruited patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who failed first-line standard treatments. The findings were presented by Professor Jihong Liu from the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center in China. Study Background and Design Cervical cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies among women and a leading cause of cancer-related death. For those who have failed the first-line standard therapy, the currently available treatment options are inadequate. The objective response rate (ORR) for pembrolizumab was 12.2%, with an ORR of 0% in the PD-L1-negative population[1]. Additionally, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and median overall survival (OS) were reported to be 2.1 months and 9.4 months, respectively. Similarly, cemiplimab showed an ORR of 16.4%, with a median PFS of 2.8 months and a median OS of 12.0 months[2]. This highlights the unmet need for effective and safe clinical treatments for patients with cervical cancer who failed first-line therapy. By targeting and inhibiting two immune checkpoint pathways (anti-PD-1 IgG4 and anti-CTLA-4 IgG1), Qilu Pharmaceutical's proprietary drug QL1706 has shown a favorable safety profile and preliminary efficacy in patients with cervical cancer in early studies. The DUBHE-C-206 study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of QL1706 in patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer. This study was a multi-center, single-arm, open-label phase II clinical trial which enrolled patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who failed first-line platinum-based chemotherapy (with or without bevacizumab) and without prior immunotherapy. Participants received QL1706 at a dose of 5.0 mg/kg once every three weeks (Q3W). The primary endpoint of the trial was the ORR as assessed by an Independent Evaluation Committee (IRC). Secondary endpoints included the ORR as evaluated by investigators, duration of response (DoR) and disease control rate (DCR) as assessed by both IRC and investigators, PFS, 6-month and 12-month PFS rates, OS, 12-month OS rate, as well as safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity. Study Results As of April 28, 2023, the study had enrolled 148 patients with a median age of 53.0 years, including 132 (89.2%) diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma. Of these participants, 109 (73.6%) had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) score of 1. Additionally, 105 (70.9%) patients had a combined positive score (CPS) of ≥1, while 43 (29.1%) had a CPS of <1. Notably, 39.9% of the participants had been treated with bevacizumab, and 37.2% had received second-line and subsequent therapy. The median follow-up duration of the study was 11.0 months. In terms of efficacy, the ORR as assessed by IRC was 33.8% (95% CI: 26.2%-42.0%), and the DCR reached 64.9% (95% CI: 56.6%-72.5%). The median PFS was 5.4 months (95% CI: 3.9-6.9), with 6-month and 12-month PFS rates of 45.0% and 16.1%, respectively. The median OS had not been reached, with 6-month and 12-month OS rates standing at 83.9% and 65.4%, respectively. In subgroup analyses, the ORR for patients with a CPS of ≥1 was 37.1%, compared to 25.6% for those with a CPS of <1. Furthermore, the ORR for patients who had previously received bevacizumab was 28.8%, whereas it was 37.1% for those who had not undergone such treatment. Regarding safety, among all the participants, 104 (70.3%) experienced treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), with the most common being hypothyroidism (20.9%) and hyperthyroidism (18.9%). TRAEs of grade 3 or higher were observed in 36 individuals (24.3%), with anemia (4.1%), increased gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) (2.7%), and increased lipase level (2.7%) being the most frequently reported. Three patients (2.0%) discontinued treatment due to TRAEs. There were no reported deaths resulting from TRAEs. In the study, 65 participants (43.9%) experienced immune-related adverse events (irAEs), with grade 3 or higher irAEs reported in 21 (14.2%). In conclusion, QL1706 has shown promising efficacy and acceptable safety profile in patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who failed first-line standard therapy, regardless of their PD-L1 expression. This positions QL1706 as a more effective and safer therapeutic option for patients with cervical cancer whose disease progressed after first-line standard therapy. A phase III clinical trial is currently in progress, evaluating the use of QL1706 in combination with chemotherapy (with or without bevacizumab) as a first-line treatment option. Prof. Liu from the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center commented, "The findings from the DUBHE-C-206 study offer new evidence to support the use of dual immunotherapy in the second- and late-line treatment of recurrent or metastatic advanced cervical cancer (ACC). They also affirm QL1706's potential as a promising new treatment option for ACC patients. The study's results have shown the efficacy benefits of QL1706 across the whole ACC patient population while demonstrating its considerable safety advantages. These findings suggest that QL1706 has the potential to significantly enhance the quality of life for patients and provide superior clinical benefits. We eagerly anticipate the outcomes of the Phase 3 trial for QL1706, which is now in progress to assess the efficacy and safety of QL1706 in combination with chemotherapy, with or without bevacizumab, as a first-line treatment for recurrent or metastatic ACC." Professor Hanmei Lou from Zhejiang Cancer Hospital stated, "For ACC patients who have failed first-line therapy, the available treatment options are still limited and exhibit unsatisfactory efficacy, highlighting substantial unmet clinical needs. The efficacy and safety data from the DUBHE-C-206 study are promising. Compared with the previously reported combination therapy involving PD-1 and CTLA-4 inhibitors, QL1706 has demonstrated reduced toxicity and offers notable advantages in both safety and efficacy. This further supports the use of dual immunotherapy for the treatment of recurrent or metastatic ACC. Consequently, the data from the DUBHE-C-206 study holds significant clinical value and implications." Ms Xiaoyan Kang, Executive Deputy General Manager of Qilu Pharmaceutical's Clinical Research & Development Center and Chief Medical Officer (CMO) for Oncology, explained, "QL1706 represents the world's first dual-functional MabPair antibody targeting both PD-1 and CTLA-4 pathways. Data from several clinical studies of this novel drug have been released. The inclusion of the latest clinical trial results in the oral presentation at the ESGO conference underscores the international academic community's interest in and recognition of the clinical potential of this novel product. Currently, multiple Phase III clinical trials involving QL1706 are in progress, covering various disease indications. Going forward, we plan to further accelerate the clinical development of QL1706 to ensure that this treatment can reach and benefit patients as soon as possible." References: 1.

Report Highlights The companies and academics are working to assess challenges and seek opportunities that could influence Non-Small-Cell Lung cancer (NSCLC) R&D. The therapies under development are focused on novel approaches to treat/improve Non-Small-Cell Lung cancer (NSCLC) . Non-Small-Cell Lung cancer (NSCLC) Emerging Drugs Chapters This segment of the Non-Small-Cell Lung cancer (NSCLC) report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases. Non-Small-Cell Lung cancer (NSCLC) Emerging Drugs V940: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC V940 is designed to stimulate an immune response by generating specific T cell responses based on the unique mutational signature of a patient's tumor. It is a novel investigational messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-based personalized cancer vaccine consisting of a single synthetic mRNA coding for up to 34 neoantigens that is designed and produced based on the unique mutational signature of the DNA sequence of the patient's tumor. Upon administration into the body, the algorithmically derived and RNA-encoded neoantigen sequences are endogenously translated and undergo natural cellular antigen processing and presentation, a key step in adaptive immunity. The drug is in Phase III stage for the treatment of NSCLC. QL1706: Qilu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. QL1706 is an investigational bifunctional antibody with additional anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) antibody could increase the anti-tumor effect of anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) antibody. QL1706 is a novel dual immune checkpoint blockade containing a mixture of anti-PD-1 IgG4 and anti-CTLA4 IgG1 antibodies produced by a single cell line. The drug is in Phase III stage for the treatment of NSCLC. Zenocutuzumab (MCLA-128): Merus N.V. Zenocutuzumab (MCLA-128; Zeno) is a Biclonics antibody that overcomes HER3 mediated NRG1 (or NRG1 fusion) signaling in tumor cells. Zeno docks on HER2, then binds to and blocks the NRG1 fusion-HER3 interaction and HER3 heterodimerization with HER2. It has a dual mechanism against cancer, as it prevents NRG1 fusions from binding to the protein HER3 and it blocks the interaction of HER3 with HER2, which the cancer cells depend on to survive and multiply. Currently, the drug is in Phase II stage for the treatment of NSCLC. ZW49: Zymeworks BC Inc. ZW49 (zanidatamab zovodotin) is a bispecific anti-HER2 ADC that is based on the same antibody framework as ZW25 but armed with a cytotoxic payload. A biparatopic (targeting two different non-overlapping epitopes on ERBB2, on extracellular domains 2 (ECD2) and 4 (ECD4). ZW25 is an anti-HER2 biparatopic antibody which binds to the same domains as trastuzumab and pertuzumab. ZW25 simultaneously binds two distinct sites on HER2, a protein expressed on many types of cancer cells. This unique design results in multiple mechanisms of action, including dual HER2 signal blockade, increased antibody binding, receptor clustering, and removal of HER2 from the cell surface, and potent e?ector function. ZW49 is in Phase I of clinical trials for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.
