Phase Ia Dose Escalation Of Ibi318, A First-In-Class Bispecific Anti-Pd-1/Pd-L1, In Patients With Advanced Tumors.

3062 Background: With the proven success of PD-1 and PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies, exploiting antibody based immune checkpoint strategies has potential to reduce disease burden and improve patient survival outcome. IBI318, as a first-in-class anti-PD-1/PD-L1 bispecific antibody, could provide more potent anti-tumor activity and more durable response. Here we report preliminary results from an ongoing phase 1a/1b study of IBI318 in advanced tumors. Methods: In the dose escalation of Phase 1a, patients with advanced and/or refractory solid tumors or hematological malignancies were enrolled to receive IBI318. Dose escalation was from 0.3 mg to 600 mg (8 cohorts) via an accelerated titration followed by a modified toxicity probability interval-2 design with a 28-day dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observation period. Patients without DLT will receive IBI318 every two week (Q2W). Tumor assessments were performed every 6 weeks. Results: As of Jan 10, 2020, 15 pts who had failed at least one line of treatment had been enrolled (1 pt each in 0.3 mg, 1 mg, 3 mg and 10 mg; 3 pts in 30 mg; 3 pts in 100 mg, 3 pts in 300 mg and 2 pts in 600 mg) for dose escalation and received at least 1 dose of treatment. Median duration of treatment was 6.1 (range: 2.1-24.7) weeks. IBI318 had been well tolerated with no DLT from 0.3mg to 300mg group. 11 of 15 pts had treatment related AEs (TRAEs) and the most common (≥10%) TRAEs were pyrexia (20.0%, G1/2) and infusion-related reaction (20.0%, G1/2). 1 patient in 300 mg had an immune-related AE (G2 arthritis). No ≥G3 TRAE had been observed. 12 pts had at least one on-study tumor assessment. 3 of 9 pts receiving dose level ≥10mg had achieved partial response (1 confirmed, 1 pending confirmation and the other PD after the first PR scan). A total of 10 pts discontinued treatment due to disease progression (8) and AE (2, G4 lung infection and G4 upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, both were not related to treatment). Conclusions: IBI318 has shown an acceptable safety profile. Preliminary efficacy results are promising in advanced cancer patients. The study is currently ongoing at dose level of 600 mg Q2W.
