    Abstract: Agonistic antibodies targeting CD137 have been clinically unsuccessful due to systemic toxicity. Because conferring tumor selectivity through tumor-associated antigen limits its clinical use to cancers that highly express such antigens, we exploited extracellular adenosine triphosphate (exATP), which is a hallmark of the tumor microenvironment and highly elevated in solid tumors, as a broadly tumor-selective switch. We generated a novel anti-CD137 switch antibody, STA551, which exerts agonistic activity only in the presence of exATP. STA551 demonstrated potent and broad antitumor efficacy against all mouse and human tumors tested and a wide therapeutic window without systemic immune activation in mice. STA551 was well tolerated even at 150 mg/kg/week in cynomolgus monkeys. These results provide a strong rationale for the clinical testing of STA551 against a broad variety of cancers regardless of antigen expression, and for the further application of this novel platform to other targets in cancer therapy. Significance: Reported CD137 agonists suffer from either systemic toxicity or limited efficacy against antigen-specific cancers. STA551, an antibody designed to agonize CD137 only in the presence of extracellular ATP, inhibited tumor growth in a broad variety of cancer models without any systemic toxicity or dependence on antigen expression.

    Abstract 1482: Anti-GPC3 TRAB, a first-in-class T cell-redirecting bispecific antibody targeting glypican-3 with potent in vitro and in vivo antitumor efficacy against solid tumors

    Abstract: We present efficacy data for the T cell-redirecting antibody (TRAB) with highly potent anti-tumor efficacy. Anti-Glypican-3 (GPC3) TRAB is a humanized IgG4 bispecific antibody that simultaneously binds to GPC3 on the cancer cell surface and to CD3 on the T cell surface. Anti-GPC3 TRAB utilizes T cells as effectors to induce strong TRAB dependent cellular cytotoxicity (TDCC) in the presence of GPC3-expressing cells. Treatment with anti-GPC3 TRAB first activates T cells by increasing the expression of CD25 and CD69 and also upregulating cytokines IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL 10, IFNγ, and TNF, and then it enhances the proliferation of T cells. Anti-GPC3 TRAB showed antitumor activity against xenograft tumors derived from various cancer types — MKN-74 (human gastric adenocarcinoma), PC-10 (human lung squamous cell carcinoma), TOV-21G (human ovarian clear cell carcinoma), and KYSE70 (human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma) — in a NOD-SCID mouse model injected with human T cells. Although recent immunotherapy, as represented by immune check point inhibitors PD-1, PD-L1, and CTLA-4 antibodies, showed promising efficacy in human, not every patient can benefit from this immunotherapy, because the significant efficacy shown in patients by a blockade of immune checkpoints is closely related to the tumor microenvironment. The immune check point inhibitors show high efficacy against inflamed tumors, because these have been sufficiently infiltrated by cytotoxic T cells that recognize cancer-specific antigens. However, they do not have efficacy against non inflamed tumors. In an immunocompetent mouse model using human CD3 transgenic mice, neither the inhibitors that block immune checkpoints (such as PD-1, PD-L1 and CTLA-4) nor a conventional ADCC antibody recognizing GPC3 could show significant efficacy against a poorly immunogenic LLC1/hGPC3 tumor. However, anti-GPC3 TRAB showed efficacy against this poorly immunogenic tumor by utilizing any kind of T cell as effectors irrespective of TCR specificity, including not only CD8-positive but also CD4-positive T cells. The studies we present show that anti-GPC3 TRAB is a promising drug with high efficacy utilizing all kinds of T cells as effectors. The compound is expected to have efficacy even in patients with poorly immunogenic tumors, in which an immune checkpoint blockade fails to show efficacy.

    Abstract DDT01-05: First-in-class T cell-redirecting bispecific antibody targeting glypican-3: a highly tumor-selective antigen

    Abstract: Immune checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-PD1 antibodies have shown promising clinical responses in several solid tumors, however there remain patients who do not show an adequate response. Recent biomarker studies have revealed that the presence of neoantigens in the tumor can determine the level of response, and thus the next challenge will be how to target tumors with a neoantigen level that is too low to be recognized by endogenous cytotoxic T cells. Hope in this area is offered by a T cell-redirecting antibody (TRAB), which bispecifically engages CD3 and a tumor antigen, even at very low expression levels, to activate the inherent cytolytic potential of T cells against target tumor cells. A TRAB is highly potent because T cells are activated only in the presence of the targeted antigens and are not restricted by the specificity of the T cell receptor. Given this very potent cytotoxicity, the key to successfully achieving strong antitumor efficacy while avoiding on-target off-tumor toxicity is to select a highly tumor-selective antigen. Our fully humanized IgG TRAB recognizes CD3 and a highly tumor-selective antigen, glypican-3 (GPC3), which is a fetal protein expressed in a wide variety of tissues during development but suppressed in most adult tissues. On the other hand, an inct101e in GPC3 expression has been reported in hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric cancer, lung squamous cell carcinoma, and other cancers. In nonclinical in vitro pharmacology studies, the anti-GPC3 TRAB elicited activation and proliferation of T cells and T cell-dependent cellular cytotoxicity against a wide variety of GPC3-expressing tumor cells, and showed long-lasting in vivo efficacy against tumor expressing very low levels of GPC3 at a few thousand molecules per cell. Furthermore, in an immunocompetent mouse model using human CD3 transgenic mice, anti-GPC3 TRAB showed strong antitumor efficacy against poorly immunogenic tumors, whereas both the immune checkpoint inhibitors and a conventional ADCC-inducing antibody recognizing GPC3 did not show significant efficacy. Pharmacokinetics and toxicology studies in nonhuman primates showed a plasma half-life comparable to a standard IgG drug, allowing a QW or Q2W regimen in humans, with toxicity which was manageable and reversible; the main observations of transient cytokine elevation and associated clinical symptoms were markedly reduced by steroid premedication. Our anti-GPC3 TRAB, which is supported by proprietary antibody engineering technology (ART-Ig) that enables large-scale GMP manufacturing, has promise as a new approach in cancer immunotherapy.

    Determination of starting dose of the T cell-redirecting bispecific antibody ERY974 targeting glypican-3 in first-in-human clinical trial

    Abstract: Currently, ERY974, a humanized IgG4 bispecific T cell-redirecting antibody recognizing glypican-3 and CD3, is in phase I clinical trials. After a first-in-human clinical trial of an anti-CD28 agonist monoclonal antibody resulting in severe life-threatening adverse events, the minimal anticipated biological effect level approach has been considered for determining the first-in-human dose of high-risk drugs. Accordingly, we aimed to determine the first-in-human dose of ERY974 using both the minimal anticipated biological effect level and no observed adverse effect level approaches. In the former, we used the 10% effective concentration value from a cytotoxicity assay using the huH-1 cell line with the highest sensitivity to ERY974 to calculate the first-in-human dose of 4.9 ng/kg, at which maximum drug concentration after 4 h of intravenous ERY974 infusion was equal to the 10% effective concentration value. To determine the no observed adverse effect level, we conducted a single-dose study in cynomolgus monkeys that were intravenously infused with ERY974 (0.1, 1, and 10 μg/kg). The lowest dose of 0.1 μg/kg was determined as the no observed adverse effect level, and the first-in-human dose of 3.2 ng/kg was calculated, considering body surface area and species difference. For the phase I clinical trial, we selected 3.0 ng/kg as a starting dose, which was lower than the first-in-human dose calculated from both the no observed adverse effect level and minimal anticipated biological effect level. Combining these two methods to determine the first-in-human dose of strong immune modulators such as T cell-redirecting antibodies would be a suitable approach from safety and efficacy perspectives. Clinical trial registration: JapicCTI-194805/NCT05022927.

    Abstract: Cancer care is being revolutionized by immunotherapies such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, engineered T cell transfer, and cell vaccines. The bispecific T cell–redirecting antibody (TRAB) is one such promising immunotherapy, which can redirect T cells to tumor cells by engaging CD3 on a T cell and an antigen on a tumor cell. Because T cells can be redirected to tumor cells regardless of the specificity of T cell receptors, TRAB is considered efficacious for less immunogenic tumors lacking enough neoantigens. Its clinical efficacy has been exemplified by blinatumomab, a bispecific T cell engager targeting CD19 and CD3, which has shown marked clinical responses against hematological malignancies. However, the success of TRAB in solid tumors has been hampered by the lack of a target molecule with sufficient tumor selectivity to avoid “on-target off-tumor” toxicity. Glypican 3 (GPC3) is a highly tumor-specific antigen that is expressed during fetal development but is strictly suppressed in normal adult tissues. We developed ERY974, a whole humanized immunoglobulin G–structured TRAB harboring a common light chain, which bispecifically binds to GPC3 and CD3. Using a mouse model with reconstituted human immune cells, we revealed that ERY974 is highly effective in killing various types of tumors that have GPC3 expression comparable to that in clinical tumors. ERY974 also induced a robust antitumor efficacy even against tumors with nonimmunogenic features, which are difficult to treat by inhibiting immune checkpoints such as PD-1 (programmed cell death protein–1) and CTLA-4 (cytotoxic T lymphocyte–associated protein–4). Immune monitoring revealed that ERY974 converted the poorly inflamed tumor microenvironment to a highly inflamed microenvironment. Toxicology studies in cynomolgus monkeys showed transient cytokine elevation, but this was manageable and reversible. No organ toxicity was evident. These data provide a rationale for clinical testing of ERY974 for the treatment of patients with GPC3-positive solid tumors.
