A Phase 1 Dose Escalation Study of Igm-2323, a Novel Anti-CD20 x Anti-CD3 IgM T Cell Engager (TCE) in Patients with Advanced B-Cell Malignancies.

Abstract

Introduction: IGM-2323 is the first engineered high-affinity, high-avidity bispecific IgM monoclonal antibody TCE to be tested in the clinic. It has 10 binding domains for CD20 and a single binding domain for CD3 and is designed to bind irreversibly to CD20-high and low-expressing cells with more physiologic stimulation to T cells, which may mitigate cytokine release syndrome (CRS)-related toxicity and broaden the therapeutic window. IGM-2323 may act by multiple mechanisms: T-cell dependent cytotoxicity, complement dependent cytotoxicity, and enhanced immune modulation via IFNgamma-dominant cytokine stimulation. This phase 1 study is exploring the safety and activity of IGM-2323 using a dose titration schedule intended to optimize repeatable immune stimulation while minimizing toxicity. Method(s): This first-in-human Phase 1 study is a global, multicenter, open-label, dose escalation evaluating safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary efficacy (NCT04082936). Adults with relapsed or refractory CD20 + B-cell NHL with >= 2 prior systemic therapies, adequate organ function, and ECOG 0-1 are eligible. IGM-2323 is given IV on Days 1, 8, and 15 of 21-day cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment can continue beyond progression if the patient (pt) has benefitted from treatment and intra-patient dose escalation is allowed. This study also utilizes a dose titration scheme where a starting dose is given on Day 1, then higher subsequent doses...Copyright © 2021 American Society of Hematology
