Abstract
TPS1110 Background: There are currently no curative treatments for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC), and prognosis for this disease is very poor. Emerging treatment combinations of anti-programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) agents with chemotherapy have shown promise in mTNBC. SGN-LIV1A, or ladiratuzumab vedotin (LV), is a novel investigational humanized IgG1 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) directed against LIV-1, which is highly expressed in breast cancer cells. LV mediates delivery of monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), which drives antitumor activity through cytotoxic cell killing and induces immunogenic cell death (ICD). Preliminary results from an ongoing phase 1 study of LV monotherapy has shown LV to be well tolerated and to have encouraging antitumor activity in patients with mTNBC. Combining LV and pembrolizumab may result in complementary, as well as synergistic, activity through LV-induced ICD that creates a microenvironment favorable for enhanced anti-PD-L1 activity. Methods: This single-arm, open-label, phase 1b/2 study evaluates the safety and antitumor activity of LV in combination with pembrolizumab as first-line therapy for patients with unresectable locally advanced or mTNBC (NCT03310957, 2017-002289-35). Patients must have measureable disease per RECIST v1.1, an ECOG score of 0 or 1, and no prior cytotoxic or anti-PD-L1 treatment for advanced disease. This study has 2 parts that are enrolling sequentially: a dose-finding phase that starts at LV 2.5 mg/kg + pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously every three weeks, and a dose expansion phase. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety/tolerability and objective response rate of LV + pembrolizumab, and identify the recommended phase 2 dose of LV. The secondary objectives are to assess duration of response, disease control rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Additional objectives include assessing PD-L1 and LIV-1 expression-response relationship. Study enrollment is ongoing in the US and EU. Clinical trial information: NCT03310957.
