Abstract
9091 Background: Although IL-10 has anti-inflammatory properties, it stimulates cytotoxicity and proliferation of intratumoral antigen activated CD8+ T cell at higher concentrations. AM0010 is anticipated to activate antigen stimulated, intratumoral CD8 T cells while PD-1 inhibits them, providing the rationale for combining AM0010 and anti-PD-1 antibody. Methods: We treated a cohort of 34 NSCLC pts with AM0010 (10-20mg/kg QD, SC) and a PD-1 inhibitor [pembrolizumab (2mg/kg, q3wk IV; n=5) or nivolumab (3mg/kg, q2wk IV; n=29)]. Tumor responses were assessed by irRC every 8 weeks. Immune responses were measured by analysis of serum cytokines (Luminex), activation of blood derived T cells (FACS) and peripheral T cell clonality (TCR sequencing). Tumor PD-L1 expression was confirmed by IHC (22C3). Results: Pts had a median of 2 prior therapies. Median follow-up is 9.6 mo (range 0.5-77.3) in this fully enrolled cohort. AM0010 plus anti-PD-1 was well-tolerated. TrAEs were reversible and transient, with most being low grade, most commonly fatigue and pyrexia. G3/4 TrAEs were thrombocytopenia (7), anemia (6), fatigue (4), rash (3), pyrexia (2), hypertriglyceridemia (1) and pneumonitis (1). As of Jan. 31 2017, 22 pts had at least 1 tumor assessment. Partial responses (PRs) were observed in 8 pts (36.4%). 17 of these 22 pts had tissue for analysis of percent of tumor cells with PD-L1 expression (22C3): 58.8% had <1%, 17.7% had 1-49% and 23.5% had >50%. Best response data stratified for PD-L1 are shown in the table. Median PFS and OS for the entire cohort have not been reached. Updated outcome data that includes all enrolled pts will be available at the meeting. AM0010 plus anti-PD1 increased serum Th1 cytokines (IL-18, IFNγ), the number and proliferation of PD1+ Lag3+ activated CD8+ T cells and a de-novo oligoclonal expansion of T cell clones in the blood while decreasing TGFβ. Conclusions: AM0010 in combination with anti-PD1 is well-tolerated in advanced NSCLC pts. The efficacy and the observed CD8+ T cell activation is promising. Clinical trial information: NCT02009449.
