Abstract
Introduction/Background DB-1303 is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) consisting of a humanized anti-HER2 IgG1 monoclonal antibody, covalently linked to a proprietary DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor (P1003) via a maleimide tetrapeptide-based cleavable linker.
Methodology This is a multicentre, dose-escalation/expansion study evaluating DB-1303 IV Q3W in previously treated patients with solid tumours and compelling antitumor activity has been observed (ASCO 2023). This is the first report of dose escalation and expansion results of DB-1303 in patients with HER2-expressing (IHC 1/2/3+ or ISH+) advanced/metastatic endometrial cancer (EC).
Results As of May 8, 2023, 32 patients with EC had received 7 or 8 mg/kg doses of DB-1303. The most common histological sub-type was uterine serous papillary carcinoma (USPC, 34.4%), adenocarcinoma (25.0%), and uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS, 18.8%). The median treatment duration was 2.6 (range, 0.7–10.4) months with 29 patients (90.6%) remaining on treatment. Median number of prior regimens for metastatic disease was 2 (range, 1–10). Nineteen patients (59.4%) had prior immunotherapy (IO) therapy. A total of 17 patients were evaluable for response. Ten patients (58.8%) had objective partial tumour response (4 confirmed, and 6 requiring further confirmation) per RECIST 1.1: 7 USPC (87.5%, 7/8), 1 UCS (50.0%, 1/2), 1 mixed adenocarcinoma (50.0%, 1/2), and 1 adenocarcinoma (33.3%, 1/3). The ORRs for patients at 7 and 8 mg/kg dose were 50.0% (2/4) and 61.5% (8/13), respectively. The overall DCR was 94.1%. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of any grade occurred in 30 patients (93.8%), and the most common (≥20%) were nausea (50.0%), fatigue (31.2%), and vomiting (28.1%); of ≥grade 3 occurred in 10 patients (31.2%), and the most common (≥5%) were hypokalaemia (12.5%), anaemia (6.2%), and syncope (6.2%). No TEAEs led to drug discontinuation or death. No interstitial lung disease occurred.
Conclusion DB-1303 demonstrated a manageable safety profile and promising antitumor activity, with high disease control in patients with advanced/metastatic EC.
