Abstract:
Background: Engineered toxin bodies (ETBs) are composed of a de-immunized Shiga-like Toxin A subunit genetically fused to an antibody-like binding domain. ETBs can force receptor internalization, induce potent cell-kill via enzymatic and permanent inactivation of ribosomes, and may not be subject to resistance mechanisms of other therapeutics. MT-5111 is a 55 kD ETB targeting HER2 in solid tumors that binds to an epitope distinct from trastuzumab and pertuzumab, offering potential combination strategies with other HER2-targeting agents. MT-5111 may demonstrate efficacy in patients (pts) resistant to other HER2-targeting agents, as its mechanism of action does not rely on inhibition of kinase signaling or cytoskeletal or DNA damage. Methods: The primary objective is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MT-5111 monotherapy in adult pts with advanced HER2+ solid tumors. Secondary objectives are pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and immunogenicity. Using a modified 3+3 design, the dose-escalation part of the study enrolls pts with HER2+ tumors into 7 cohorts: 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4.5, 6.75, and 10 µg/kg/dose. Three dose-expansion cohorts will follow for HER2+ breast cancer, gastro-esophageal cancer, and other HER2+ tumors. All pts receive MT-5111 weekly as 30-min IV infusions in each 21-day treatment (tx) cycle (C) until disease progression (PD), unacceptable toxicity, death, or withdrawn consent (NCT04029922). Results: Per data cut in June 2021, 21 pts (mean age 64 years, range 34-78; 38% male) in cohorts 1-6 with breast (n=7), biliary (n=6), gastric (n=3), pancreatic (n=2), lung (n=2), and colon (n=1) cancer were treated (Table 1). Pts had a median of 4 prior lines of systemic therapies (range, 1-8) and 2 prior lines of HER2-targeting treatments (range, 0-6). No Grade (G)4 or 5 tx-emergent (TE) adverse events (AEs) occurred. Tx-related AEs occurred in 11 (52%) pts; the most common was fatigue (n=7, 33%). One pt (4.5 µg/kg) had a possibly (per PI) related G3 serious AE (SAE) of dyspnea and hypoxia, but also lymphangitic carcinomatosis and H. influenzae infection. The other related SAE occurred in a pt (6.75 µg/kg) who had a G1 transient troponin increase without concomitant cardiac symptoms or ECG/ECHO changes. All other related AEs were ≤G2. There were no clinically significant changes in cardiac biomarkers (troponin, ECG, left ventricular ejection fraction) nor were there cases of capillary leak syndrome. Two pts (3 µg/kg and 4.5 µg/kg) had reversible G2 infusion-related reactions. Best response to date has been stable disease. AUClast data matched PK simulations based on non-human primate studies, and Cmax data at 6.75 µg/kg indicated that current in-human exposure was between the IC50 values of high and medium HER2-expressing cell lines (approximately 10-89 ng/mL). Thus, a dose of at least 10 µg/kg may be required to achieve effective exposure. To date, no dose-limiting toxicities have been observed and the 10 µg/kg/dose cohort is now accruing. Conclusions: MT-5111 was well tolerated with no clinically significant immuno- or cardiotoxicity. Dose escalation is ongoing and nearing levels expected to be required for efficacious exposure.
