Safety and Tolerability of BION-1301 in Adults With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma (MM)

Phase 1
Terminated
Conditions
Multiple Myeloma
Interventions
Biological: BION-1301
Registration Number
NCT03340883
Lead Sponsor
Chinook Therapeutics, Inc.
Brief Summary

This is a Phase 1/2 study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BION-1301 in adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma whose disease has progressed after 3 or more prior systemic therapies.

Detailed Description

An open-label, multi-center, dose-selection Phase 1/2 study (also referred to as ADU-CL-16) evaluating BION-1301, a humanized monoclonal antibody directed against APRIL for the treatment of relapsed or refractory MM. This first-in-human study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and initial clinical activity of BION-1301 administered as a single agent.

The study will be conducted in 2 parts. Phase 1 is dose escalation and seeks to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Once an RP2D is identified, Phase 2 of the study will open and continue to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of BION-1301 administered at selected dose level(s).

The population for this study will consist of adults with relapsed or refractory MM whose disease has progressed after at least 3 prior systemic therapies. BION-1301 will be administered in 28-day cycles; the dosing interval will be once every two weeks (Q2W).

Inclusion Criteria

Individuals eligible to participate in this study must meet the following key criteria and additional criteria as specified in the protocol:

  1. Male or female, aged ≥ 18 years

  2. Confirmed diagnosis of MM per IMWG criteria

  3. Measurable disease as defined by one or more of the following:

    • Serum M-protein ≥ 0.5 g/dL
    • Urine M-protein ≥ 200 mg/24 hours
    • Serum Free Light Chain (FLC) assay: involved FLC level ≥ 10 mg/dL provided serum FLC ratio is abnormal
    • In cases where SPEP is unreliable, serum quantitative immunoglobulin (qIgA) ≥ 750 mg/dL (0.75 g/dL) is acceptable
  4. Relapsed or refractory (Rajkumar, 2011) to 3 or more different prior lines of therapy for MM, including immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), proteasome inhibitors (PIs), chemotherapies, or monoclonal antibodies, and not a candidate for, or intolerant to established therapy known to provide clinical benefit.

  5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 - 1

  6. Adequate organ and marrow function at Screening, as defined by the study protocol.

Key

Exclusion Criteria
  1. Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), smoldering myeloma, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, or IgM myeloma
  2. Active plasma cell leukemia (˃ 2.0 × 109/L circulating plasma cells by standard differential)
  3. POEMS syndrome (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal protein, and skin changes)
  4. Prior treatment directed to B-cell Activating Factor (BAFF; BLyS), B-cell Maturation Antigen (BCMA;TNFSF17) or Transmembrane Activator and CAML interactor (TACI; TNFSF13B), including antibodies or BCMA- or TACI-directed Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Recommended Phase 2 Dose (Phase 1)Approximately 2 years

Recommended Phase 2 Dose RP2D of BION-1301 when administered as a single-agent

Biomarkers (Phase 1 and 2)Baseline and approximately 2 years

Biomarkers such as soluble a proliferation inducing ligand (APRIL; TNFSF13); soluble B cell maturation antigen (BCMA; TNFRSF17)

Safety Profile (Phase 2)28 days

BION-1301 safety profile based on incidence of TEAEs (treatment emergent adverse events), changes in safety parameters, and unacceptable toxicities

Progression-Free Survival (Phase 2)Approximately 30 months

Progression-free survival (PFS) defined as time from first dose of study drug to date of first tumor progression or death due to any cause

Safety (Phase 1)28 days following first administration of BION-1301

Number of patients reporting treatment-related adverse events that qualify as dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of BION-1301 as a single agent

Bioanalytical Measures (Phase 1 and Phase 2)Baseline and approximately 2 years

Relative change in serum and urine M-protein levels defined as the maximum reduction from baseline

Response Rate (Phase 2)Approximately 30 months

Objective response rate (ORR) based on International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) uniform response criteria of stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), or partial response (PR)

Overall Survival (Phase 2)Approximately 30 months

Overall survival (OS) defined as the time from first dose of study drug to date of death due to any cause
