Popis: 33 Background: Cemiplimab (REGN2810), a high-affinity, highly potent, human monoclonal antibody to PD-1, has demonstrated a safety profile comparable with that of other anti-PD-1 antibodies and antitumor activity in various solid tumors including cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in pts outside of Japan. We present analysis of Part 1 of a two-part, multicenter, open-label, Phase 1 study of cemiplimab in Japanese pts with advanced malignancies. Methods: Part 1 dose exploration pts received either cemiplimab 250 mg (n=6) or 350 mg (n=7) Q3W IV for up to 108 weeks. Tumor measurements were performed every 9 weeks according to RECIST 1.1. Data cut-off date was July 13, 2018. Results: Thirteen pts were enrolled: median age, 62 years (range: 33–75); 8 F. Twelve (92.3%) and 7 (53.8%) pts had received prior cancer-related systemic therapy and radiotherapy, respectively. Median duration of cemiplimab exposure was 13.1 weeks (range: 3.0–54.6). At the data cut-off date Part 1 was fully enrolled and 9 pts (69.2%) had discontinued treatment, primarily due to disease progression (n=7, 53.8%). The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of any grade were contact dermatitis, rash, and viral upper respiratory tract infection, each occurring in 3 pts (23.1%). The following grade ≥3 TEAEs occurred in 1 pt (7.7%): hypophosphatemia, hyponatremia, autoimmune colitis, and dehydration; the last two events occurred in the same pt. No dose-limiting toxicities were reported. Cemiplimab serum concentrations were as expected from the reported PK characteristics of cemiplimab. Objective response rate (ORR; complete response + partial response [PR]) and disease control rate (ORR + stable disease [SD]) were 23.1% (3 PR) and 53.8% (7/13; 4 SD), respectively. Conclusions: Cemiplimab exhibited substantial antitumor activity in Japanese pts with advanced malignancies. Cemiplimab 350 mg Q3W dosing regimen was selected for the expansion studies. The safety profile was comparable with those previously reported for cemiplimab and other anti-PD-1 agents. Part 2 is open and enrolling pts with NSCLC in Japan. Clinical trial information: NCT02760498.
