Ipi-549-01-A Phase 1/1b First In Human Study Of Ipi-549, A Pi3k-Gamma Inhibitor, As Monotherapy And In Combination With Pembrolizumab In Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors

TPS3111Background: IPI-549 is a potential first-in-class potent and selective PI3K-γ inhibitor being developed as a novel orally administered immuno-oncology therapeutic in multiple cancer indications. Preclinical studies demonstrate a role for PI3K-γ in polarization of immune suppressive myeloid cells in the tumor microenvironment. Inhibition of PI3K-γ by IPI-549 enhanced antitumor immune responses and inhibited tumor growth in syngeneic solid tumor preclinical models. In addition, IPI-549 in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors showed increased tumor growth inhibition compared to each single agent in multiple pre-clinical models. These data served as the scientific foundation for initiating a clinical trial testing IPI-549 as a potential immuno-oncology therapy. This first-in-human clinical study will evaluate the safety and tolerability, and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of IPI-549 when administered as a monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab (NCT02637531) in solid t...
