A novel antibody-drug conjugate targeting SAIL for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.

ABSTRACT: Although several new therapeutic approaches have improved outcomes in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, unmet need persists in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), multiple myeloma (MM) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Here we describe the proteomic identification of a novel cancer target, SAIL (Surface Antigen In Leukemia), whose expression is observed in AML, MM, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL). While SAIL is widely expressed in CLL, AML, MM, DLBCL and FL patient samples, expression in cancer cell lines is mostly limited to cells of AML origin. We evaluated the antitumor activity of anti-SAIL monoclonal antibodies, 7-1C and 67-7A, conjugated to monomethyl auristatin F. Following internalization, anti-SAIL antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) exhibited subnanomolar IC50 values against AML cell lines in vitro. In pharmacology studies employing AML cell line xenografts, anti-SAIL ADCs resulted in significant tumor growth inhibition. The restricted expression profile of this target in normal tissues, the high prevalence in different types of hematologic cancers and the observed preclinical activity support the clinical development of SAIL-targeted ADCs.

Project description:Abstract Background: PRO1160 is a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) directed to CD70, an antigen mediating immuno-suppression that is overexpressed in multiple solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, with limited distribution in normal tissues. PRO1160 comprises (1) a human monoclonal antibody specific for CD70, (2) a protease-cleavable proprietary hydrophilic linker, and (3) exatecan, a topoisomerase 1 inhibitor. Comprehensive prior work demonstrated that the hydrophilic linker confers excellent physicochemical properties and pharmacokinetics (PK) across a range of payload mechanisms and is superior to conventional linkers on these critical parameters for ADCs. In addition, exatecan is broadly active in many tumor types, is membrane permeable, and is not a substrate of multidrug resistance pumps, thus likely lending strong bystander effects and durable treatment responses. PRO1160 is highly potent in cell-derived xenograft models of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), and nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). PRO1160 also demonstrates marked antitumor activity in patient-derived xenograft models of diverse tumor sites, histologies, molecular subtypes, target expression levels, and Epstein Barr Virus status. PRO1160 is stable in circulation and displays PK characteristics indistinguishable from the parent antibody in rats. In a GLP toxicity study in cynomolgus monkeys, the primary PRO1160-related toxicity resided in the thymus and bone marrow, was consistent with exatecan toxicities, and was reversible. PRO1160-001 is an ongoing, open-label Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and antitumor activity of PRO1160 in patients with metastatic RCC, metastatic or relapsed NPC, or advanced relapsed/refractory NHL. Patients must have measurable disease per the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 or the Lugano Classification for NHL. Patients must also have previously received therapies known to confer clinical benefit unless considered ineligible, refused by the patient, or not available in the region. PRO1160 is given by intravenous infusion on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle and treatment may continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or other reason for discontinuation. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PRO1160 and to identify the maximum tolerated dose, if reached, and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). This study consists of 2 parts, Part A: dose-escalation and dose-level expansion, and Part B: 3 tumor-specific expansion cohorts (metastatic RCC, metastatic or relapsed NPC, or advanced relapsed/refractory NHL) treated at the RP2D. PK, immunogenicity, and antitumor activity will also be evaluated. The study is currently enrolling at sites in the US, with future enrollment in China planned (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT05721222).
