Safety and Activity Study of HER2-Targeted Dual Switch CAR-T Cells (BPX-603) in Subjects With HER2-Positive Solid Tumors

NCT04650451

Description:

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter, non-randomized study to investigate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of HER2-specific dual-switch CAR-T cells, BPX-603, administered with rimiducid to subjects with previously treated, locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors which are HER2 amplified/overexpressed.

Purpose

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter, non-randomized study to investigate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of HER2-specific dual-switch CAR-T cells, BPX-603, administered with rimiducid to subjects with previously treated, locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors which are HER2 amplified/overexpressed.

Detailed Description

      -  Phase 1: Cell dose escalation to identify the maximum dose of BPX-603 administered
           without or with rimiducid (fixed dose at 0.4 mg/kg per infusion). The first subject in
           each dose cohort will receive BPX-603 alone (without rimiducid) in order to assess
           safety of the CAR-T monotherapy.

        -  Phase 2: Indication-specific dose expansion to assess the safety, pharmacodynamics
           (including BPX-603 persistence and response to temsirolimus as applicable), and clinical
           activity at the recommended dose for expansion (RDE) identified in Phase 1 in various
           HER2+ solid tumors.

        -  During Phase 1 or 2, temsirolimus (single IV dose at 25 mg) may be administered
           following BPX-603 infusion in response to treatment-emergent toxicity in order to
           activate the iRC9 safety switch.

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Documented evidence of HER2 amplification/overexpression by local testing.

          -  Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of a locally advanced unresectable
             or metastatic HER2+ solid tumor malignancy for which standard treatment is no longer
             effective, does not exist, or subject is ineligible.

          -  Subjects with a solid tumor malignancy for which HER2-targeted therapy is approved as
             a standard treatment (e.g., breast, gastric cancers) must have received prior
             treatment with approved HER2-directed therapy.

          -  Measurable disease (at least one target lesion) per RECIST v1.1.

          -  Life expectancy > 12 weeks.

          -  ECOG 0-1.

          -  Adequate organ function.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Symptomatic, untreated, or actively progressing central nervous system metastases.

          -  Prior CAR T cell or other genetically-modified T cell therapy.

          -  Impaired cardiac function or clinically significant cardiac disease.

          -  Symptomatic intrinsic lung disease or those with extensive tumor involvement of the
             lungs.

          -  Severe intercurrent infection.

          -  Pregnant or breastfeeding.

          -  Known HIV positivity.
