A T-cell-redirecting bispecific G-protein-coupled receptor class 5 member D x CD3 antibody to treat multiple myeloma.

ABSTRACT: T-cell-mediated approaches have shown promise in myeloma treatment. However, there are currently a limited number of specific myeloma antigens that can be targeted, and multiple myeloma (MM) remains an incurable disease. G-protein-coupled receptor class 5 member D (GPRC5D) is expressed in MM and smoldering MM patient plasma cells. Here, we demonstrate that GPRC5D protein is present on the surface of MM cells and describe JNJ-64407564, a GPRC5DxCD3 bispecific antibody that recruits CD3+ T cells to GPRC5D+ MM cells and induces killing of GPRC5D+ cells. In vitro, JNJ-64407564 induced specific cytotoxicity of GPRC5D+ cells with concomitant T-cell activation and also killed plasma cells in MM patient samples ex vivo. JNJ-64407564 can recruit T cells and induce tumor regression in GPRC5D+ MM murine models, which coincide with T-cell infiltration at the tumor site. This antibody is also able to induce cytotoxicity of patient primary MM cells from bone marrow, which is the natural site of this disease. GPRC5D is a promising surface antigen for MM immunotherapy, and JNJ-64407564 is currently being evaluated in a phase 1 clinical trial in patients with relapsed or refractory MM (NCT03399799).

Project description:We recently reported the development of a fully-human, CD3-binding bispecific antibody for immunotherapy of malignant glioma. To translate this therapeutic (hEGFRvIII-CD3- bi-scFv) to clinical trials and to help further the translation of other similar CD3-binding therapeutics, some of which are associated with neurologic toxicities, we performed a good laboratory practice (GLP) toxicity study to assess for potential behavioral, chemical, hematologic, and pathologic toxicities including evaluation for experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). To perform this study, male and female C57/BL6 mice heterozygous for the human CD3 transgene (20/sex) were allocated to one of four designated groups. All animals were administered one dose level of hEGFRvIII-CD3 bi-scFv or vehicle control. Test groups were monitored for feed consumption, changes in body weight, and behavioral disturbances including signs of EAE. Urinalysis, hematologic, and clinical chemistry analysis were also performed. Vehicle and test chemical-treated groups were humanely euthanized 48 hours or 14 days following dose administration. Complete gross necropsy of all tissues was performed, and selected tissues plus all observed gross lesions were collected and evaluated for microscopic changes. This included hematoxylin-eosin histopathological evaluation and Fe-ECR staining for myelin sheath enumeration. There were no abnormal clinical observations or signs of EAE noted during the study. There were no statistical changes in food consumption, body weight gain, or final body weight among groups exposed to hEGFRvIII-CD3 bi-scFv compared to the control groups for the 2- and 14-day timepoints. There were statistical differences in some clinical chemistry, hematologic and urinalysis endpoints, primarily in the females at the 14-day timepoint (hematocrit, calcium, phosphorous, and total protein). No pathological findings related to hEGFRvIII-CD3 bi-scFv administration were observed. A number of gross and microscopic observations were noted but all were considered to be incidental background findings. The results of this study allow for further translation of this and other important CD3 modulating bispecific antibodies.

Project description:BackgroundIn recent years, several bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) have been introduced that revolutionized the treatment approach for patients with multiple myeloma (MM). In the present study, we sought for conducting a systematic review and meta-analysis with the aim of evaluating the safety and efficacy of BsAbs in MM patients.MethodsPubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase databases were systematically searched on June 10, 2022. Two steps of title/abstract and full-text screening were performed for selecting the relevant articles. The primary endpoint was considered to evaluate the safety of BsAbs by examining the rate of hematologic and non-hematologic adverse effects (AEs). The secondary outcome was set at the efficacy of BsAbs through pooling objective response rate (ORR), (stringent) complete response (sCR/CR), very good partial response (VGPR), and partial response (PR).ResultsEleven publications with a total of nine evaluable BsAbs were included for qualitative and quantitative data synthesis. Hematologic AEs were more common among patients than non-hematologic events, with the most frequent events being anemia (41.4%), neutropenia (36.4%), and thrombocytopenia (26.3%). The most common non-hematological AE was infection, which occurred in 39.9% of patients, followed by dysgeusia (28.3%), fatigue (26.5%), and diarrhea (25.8%). Besides, 8.1% of patients experienced immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome and neurotoxicity occurred in 5.1% of them. Moreover, 59.8% of patients experienced cytokine release syndrome. The pooled rate of deaths attributable to BsAbs was estimated at 0.1%. In terms of efficacy measures, the ORR was achieved in 62.6% of MM patients, and the pooled rates of sCR/CR, VGPR, and PR were 22.7%, 23.0%, and 12.1%, respectively.ConclusionsIn an era with several emerging promising treatments for MM, BsAbs have achieved a high ORR and tolerable AEs in heavily pretreated patients. However, there is still room for developing BsAbs with a lower rate of AEs and capable of bypassing tumor evasion mechanisms.
