Results of the phase 1b study of ABBV-399 (telisotuzumab vedotin; teliso-v) in combination with erlotinib in patients with c-Met+ non-small cell lung cancer by EGFR mutation status.

Abstract

3011 Background: Telisotuzumab vedotin (ABBV-399; teliso-v [T]) is a c-Met–targeted antibody and MMAE drug conjugate. Activity of T was shown in late-line c-Met+ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) irrespective of EGFR mutation (M+) status. We present mature data from the T+ erlotinib (E) cohort of a phase 1b study (NCT02099058) by EGFR M+ status. Methods: T was administered at 2.4 mg/kg (dose-escalation phase) or 2.7 mg/kg IV Q3W, and E at 150 mg PO QD/prior tolerated dose in adult patients (pts) with advanced NSCLC. Efficacy-evaluable pts were c-Met+ (central lab IHC H-score ≥150 or local lab MET amplification/Ex 14 skipping) and had ≥1 postbaseline scan or discontinued study. EGFR M+ was defined as del19 or L858R by local lab. PK was assessed. Results: As of Dec 2018, 42 NSCLC pts received T+E; 37 were c-MET+ (36 evaluable; 35 H-score≥150, 1 MET amplified). Median age was 65 years, 25 pts (69%) had ECOG PS 1, 29 (81%) were EGFR M+ (97% had prior EGFR TKI, 55% 3rd-generation TKI, 69% TKI as last prior therapy, and 62% platinum doublet). All-grade (Gr; ≥20%) adverse events (AEs) were dermatitis acneiform (38%), diarrhea (36%), peripheral motor/sensory neuropathy (52%; 7% Gr 3), dyspnea, fatigue, hypoalbuminemia (31% each), decreased appetite, nausea (24% each), asthenia, vomiting (21% each). Gr ≥3 (≥10%) AE: pulmonary embolism (14%). PK of T+E was similar to single-agent T. The table presents efficacy data. Conclusions: These data suggest acceptable safety and promising activity of T+E and support further study in EGFR M+ c-Met+ NSCLC pts for whom frontline EGFR TKI failed. Clinical trial information: NCT02099058. [Table: see text]
