Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

This study is an open-label, multicenter, Phase I/IIa, dose escalation, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) study of BNT142 followed by expansion cohorts in patients with Claudin 6 (CLDN6)-positive advanced tumors.

Detailed Description

Part 1 (Dose escalation) of this study is a first-in-human (FIH), open-label, dose escalation safety and PK study of BNT142 in patients with advanced/metastatic CLDN6-positive solid tumors.

Part 2 (Expansion) will be a Phase IIa proof-of-concept study in up to three expansion cohorts of CLDN6 positive advanced/metastatic ovarian cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) of non-squamous type, and testicular cancer patients who have progressed on or after last prior treatment.

Inclusion Criteria

NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.

For Part 1 and 2:

  • Histological or cytological documentation of a malignant solid tumor (via a pathology report) that is metastatic or unresectable.
  • CLDN6-positive tumor sample as assessed by central laboratory testing using a validated immunohistochemistry assay in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded neoplastic tissues or alternatively from fresh tissue if archival tissue is unavailable. If archival tissue samples from several points of time are available, the most recent one is preferred.
  • Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 (measurable per RECIST 1.1 or evaluable per GCIG criteria for ovarian tumors).

For Part 1 (Dose escalation):

  • Patients with advanced/metastatic ovarian (including fallopian tube and peritoneal), non-squamous NSCLC, endometrial, or testicular cancer, for whom there is no available standard therapy likely to confer clinical benefit, or the patient is not a candidate for such available therapy, or patients with not otherwise specified tumors (as confirmed by histological diagnosis), rare tumors (defined as those occurring in <15 out of 100,000 people each year as per National Cancer Institute guidelines) and cancers of unknown primary, not included in the pre-defined eligible tumor types (the last three upon approval by the medical monitor). Patients must have received all available standard therapies, including targeted therapies based on mutation status (per guidelines from the United States Food and Drug Administration [FDA], American Society of Clinical Oncology, European Society for Medical Oncology or local guidelines used at the site), and failed at least first line standard of care therapy prior to enrollment.

Key

Exclusion Criteria
  • Chemotherapy, or molecularly-targeted agents within 3 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) of the start of study treatment; immunotherapy/monoclonal antibodies within 3 weeks of the start of study treatment; nitrosoureas, antibody-drug conjugates, or radioactive isotopes within 6 weeks of the start of study treatment.
  • Radiotherapy in the last 6 weeks prior to the first dose of BNT142 (excluding brain radiotherapy for which 3 weeks prior to the first dose of BNT142 is allowed). Previously irradiated tumor lesions cannot be considered as target lesions or non-target lesions in this study.
  • Concurrent systemic (oral or intravenous [IV]) steroid therapy >10 mg prednisone daily or its equivalent for an underlying condition apart from physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy.
  • Major surgery within 4 weeks before the first dose of BNT142.
  • Ongoing or active infection requiring IV treatment with anti-infective therapy that has been administered less than 2 weeks prior to the first dose of BNT142.
  • Prior treatment with a CLDN6 targeting therapy.
  • Side effects of any prior therapy or procedures for any medical condition not recovered to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v.5 Grade ≤1, except for anorexia, fatigue, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and peripheral neuropathy, which must have recovered to Grade ≤2. Alopecia of any grade is allowed.
  • Current evidence of new or growing brain or leptomeningeal metastases during screening. Patients with known brain metastases may be eligible if they:
  • Had radiotherapy, surgery or stereotactic surgery for the brain metastases;
  • Have no neurological symptoms (excluding Grade ≤2 neuropathy);
  • Have stable brain metastasis on the computer tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan within 4 weeks before signing the informed consent form; and
  • Are not undergoing acute corticosteroid therapy or steroid taper.
  • Notes: Patients with central nervous system symptoms should undergo a CT scan or MRI of the brain to exclude new or progressive brain metastases. Spinal bone metastases are allowed, unless imminent fracture with cord compression is anticipated.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding or planning to get pregnant within 6 months of the last dose of BNT142.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Occurrence of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including Grade ≥3, serious, or fatal TEAEs by causal relationship to study treatmentFrom first dose to 60 days after the last dose of BNT142
Occurrence of dose reductions and discontinuation of BNT142 due to TEAEsFrom first dose to 60 days after the last dose of BNT142
Part 1: Occurrence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) during the DLT evaluation period in the dose escalationAssessed during the DLT period, i.e., up to 5 weeks after first dose of BNT142
Part 2: Objective response rate (ORR)Up to 36 months after last patient last dose

ORR is defined as the proportion of patients in whom a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1, and per Gynecological Cancer Intergroup (GCIG) criteria incorporating RECIST 1.1 and cancer antigen (CA)-125 for the ovarian cancer population is the best overall response.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Part 1: PK parameter: Minimum observed concentration (Cmin)Pre-dose until 60 days after last dose
Part 1: PK parameter: Elimination half-life (t½)Pre-dose until 60 days after last dose
Part 1: PK parameter: Area under the concentration-time curve in the dosing interval (AUC)Pre-dose until 60 days after last dose
Part 1: PK parameter: Clearance (CL)Pre-dose until 60 days after last dose
Part 1: PK parameter: Volume of distribution (Vd)Pre-dose until 60 days after last dose
Part 1: PK parameter: Maximum observed concentration (Cmax)Pre-dose until 60 days after last dose
Part 1: PK parameter: Time to maximum observed concentration (Tmax)Pre-dose until 60 days after last dose
Part 1: PK parameter: Concentration prior to next dose (Ctrough)Pre-dose until 60 days after last dose
Part 1: ORRUp to 36 months after last patient last dose

ORR (Part 1 only) is defined as the proportion of patients in whom a confirmed CR or PR, per RECIST 1.1, is the best overall response.

Disease control rate (DCR)Up to 36 months after last patient last dose

DCR is defined as the proportion of patients in whom a CR or PR or stable disease (SD) (per RECIST 1.1 \[and per GCIG criteria for ovarian cancer patients\], SD assessed at least 6 weeks after first dose) as best overall response.

Duration of response (DOR)Up to 36 months after last patient last dose

DOR is defined as the time from first objective response (CR or PR per RECIST 1.1) to first occurrence of objective tumor progression (progressive disease per RECIST 1.1) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
