Phase I Trial of ALT-803, A Novel Recombinant IL15 Complex, in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: IL15 induces the activation and proliferation of natural killer (NK) and memory CD8+ T cells and has preclinical antitumor activity. Given the superior activity and favorable kinetics of ALT-803 (IL15N72D:IL15R?Su/IgG1 Fc complex) over recombinant human IL15 (rhIL15) in animal models, we performed this first-in-human phase I trial of ALT-803 in patients with advanced solid tumors.Patients and Methods: Patients with incurable advanced melanoma, renal cell, non-small cell lung, and head and neck cancer were treated with ALT-803 0.3 to 6 ?g/kg weekly intravenously or 6 to 20 ?g/kg weekly subcutaneously for 4 consecutive weeks, every 6 weeks. Immune correlates included pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and lymphocyte expansion and function. Clinical endpoints were toxicity and antitumor activity.Results: Twenty-four patients were enrolled; 11 received intravenous and 13 received subcutaneous ALT-803. Of these patients, nine had melanoma, six renal, three head and neck, and six lung cancer. Although total lymphocyte and CD8+ T-cell expansion were modest, NK cell numbers rose significantly. Neither anti-ALT-803 antibodies nor clinical activity were observed. Overall, ALT-803 was well tolerated, with adverse effects including fatigue and nausea most commonly with intravenous administration, whereas painful injection site wheal was reported most commonly with subcutaneous ALT-803.Conclusions: Subcutaneous ALT-803 produced the expected NK cell expansion and was well tolerated with minimal cytokine toxicities and a strong local inflammatory reaction at injection sites in patients with advanced cancer. These data, together with compelling evidence of synergy in preclinical and clinical studies, provide the rationale for combining ALT-803 with other anticancer agents.

Project description:BackgroundCombination therapy with the administration of GW5074 and sorafenib significantly induced necrotic death in various cancer cells in vivo, as well as prolonging the survival of an animal disease model due to significant suppression of the primary and metastatic lesions. We sought to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and anti-tumor activity of this co-administration therapy in patients with refractory advanced solid cancers.MethodsTwelve patients were enrolled. Eligible subjects received different dosages of GW5074 in one of the three dose cohorts (Cohort 1: 750 mg daily, Cohort 2: 1500 mg daily, Cohort 3: 750 mg twice daily) plus 200 mg of sorafenib daily to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicities (DLT) at phase 1. Furthermore, the expression level of phosphorylated DAPKS308 in primary tumor, metastatic tumor, and circulating tumor cells (CTC) were evaluated to investigate the relationship between biomarker and the efficacy profile.ResultsAmong the 12 enrolled patients in this phase 1 trial, most adverse effects (AE) were grade 1, with two being grade 3. The most frequent AE of all grades were weight loss and hypertension, occurring in 16.7% of participants. Eight patients (66.7%) had the disease controlled by receiving co-administration therapy of GW5074 and sorafenib. GW5074 was found to have poor absorption, as increasing the dosage did not result in a significant increase in the bioavailability of GW5074 in subjects. Furthermore, the expression level of phosphorylated DAPKS308 in tumor and CTCs were correlated with the disease control rate (DCR) and duration of response (DOR).ConclusionsCo-administration therapy of GW5074 and sorafenib demonstrated a favorable safety profile and showed anti-tumor activity in a variety of tumor types. However, the solubility of GW5074 is not satisfactory. A future phase 2a trial will be carried out using the new salted form that has been proven to be more effective.
