Abstract CT302: Phase Ia/Ib dose-escalation study of the anti-TIGIT antibody tiragolumab as a single agent and in combination with atezolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Background: The immunomodulatory receptor TIGIT (T-cell Immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains) is a novel inhibitory immune checkpoint present on activated T cells and NK cells in multiple cancers. In preclinical models, co-inhibition of the TIGIT and PD-L1/PD-1 pathways improved anti-tumor activity compared to either agent alone. Tiragolumab (tira or MTIG7192A) is a humanized IgG1/kappa monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds TIGIT to prevent its interaction with its ligand PVR (CD155). In this first-in-human dose-escalation study, we report the preliminary safety and anti-tumor activity of tira as a single agent and in combination with atezolizumab (atezo) in patients with advanced solid tumors. Methods: Enrolled patients, ECOG PS 0-1, had advanced tumors for whom standard therapy did not exist or was ineffective. Patients received escalating doses of tira alone IV Q3W alone (Phase Ia) or in combination with atezo 1200 mg IV Q3W (Phase Ib) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and continued until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or patient/investigator decision. Study objectives included evaluation of safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and anti-tumor activity of tira alone or tira + atezo. Data cut-off date was April 2019. Results: 73 patients with multiple tumor types were treated in dose-escalation (24 in Phase Ia, 49 in Ib with tira + atezo). In Phase Ia and Phase Ib, median age was 60 and 54 years, ECOG 0 for 29% and 27% of patients, and those who received ≥ 3 prior therapies were 67% and 57%, respectively. No DLTs were observed. Across doses, treatment-related AEs occurred in 67% in Phase Ia and 59% in Phase Ib (Grade ≥ 3: 4% and 4%, respectively), and most common AEs were fatigue (38%) in Phase Ia and anemia (31%) in Phase Ib. Exposure of tira increased with increasing dose, and saturation of nonlinear PK occurred at tira doses ≥ 100 mg Q3W. Complete and sustained occupancy of peripheral TIGIT receptors was observed at tira doses ≥ 30 mg Q3W. In Phase Ia, there were no objective responses, but SD of > 4 months duration was observed (n=4). In Phase Ib, there were 3 responses, which all occurred in PD-L1 positive tumors (2 non-small cell lung cancer [NSCLC]: 1 CR, 1 PR; and 1 head/neck squamous cell carcinoma: PR) with two patients not receiving prior immunotherapy (CIT-naïve). Therefore, expansion cohorts were initiated in PD-L1-positive CIT-naïve indications in Phase Ib. In the metastatic NSCLC expansion cohort (n=14) ORR was 50%, with 1 CR and 6 PRs; DCR was 79%, and the safety profile was similar. Conclusions: Tira monotherapy or combined with atezo was well-tolerated and had an acceptable safety profile across all dose levels. Preliminary anti-tumor activity was observed in Phase Ib with tira + atezo in CIT-naïve PD-L1-positive tumors, including NSCLC, and enrollment is ongoing in these expansion cohorts.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
