CONTRAST: BI-1607 in Combination With Trastuzumab in Subjects With HER2-positive Advanced Solid Tumors
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
HER2+ breast and gastric cancer patients' survival is significantly improved by trastuzumab alone or in combination with chemotherapy. However, many patients remain uncured and develop resistance to trastuzumab resulting in relapse or progression of the disease. BI-1607, a human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) targets CD32b (Fc Gamma Receptor IIB), it is intended to enhance the efficacy and overcome resistance to existing cancer treatments such as trastuzumab.
This is a Phase 1/2a, first-in-human, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation, consecutive-cohort study of BI-1607 in combination with trastuzumab in subjects with HER2+ advanced solid tumors whose tumor has progressed after standard therapy.

Detailed Description
This is a Phase 1/2a, first-in-human, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation, consecutive-cohort study of BI-1607 in combination with trastuzumab in subjects with HER2+ advanced solid tumors whose tumor has progressed after standard therapy.
The Phase 1 part of the trial is a dose escalation study of BI-1607 combined with trastuzumab in HER2+ advanced or metastatic solid tumors, the aim is to assess safety and tolerability and to determine the recommended phase II dose of BI-1607 in combination with trastuzumab.
The selected dose of BI-1607 will be studied in a subsequent Phase 2a part of the trial along with trastuzumab in 2 open-label, expansion cohorts of 15 evaluable subjects each. The first cohort will enroll subjects with locally advanced or metastatic HER2+ breast cancer, and the second will recruit subjects with HER2+ metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. The aim of the phase 2a is to collect additional safety data to further support the recommended dose, and to detect early signs of clinical activity.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Assessment of the safety and tolerability profile of BI-1607 in combination with trastuzumab [End of treatment visit or 30 days after last dose of study drug.]
Adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) (graded according to the National Cancer Institute [NCI] Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE] v5.0) and their causality in relation to BI-1607 or to the combination with trastuzumab
- Identify Dose limiting toxicities, determine the maximum tolerate dose of BI-1607 and propose a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for evaluation of BI-1607 in combination with trastuzumab. [22 days]
Occurrence of DLTs
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Assessment of the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of BI-1607 when administered every 3 weeks in combination with trastuzumab [90 days after the last dose of BI-1607]
The PK parameters will include area under the serum concentration-time curve, maximum concentration, time to maximum concentration, and terminal half-life
- Assessment of the immunogenicity of BI-1607 when administered in combination with trastuzumab [90 days after the last dose of BI-1607]
Antidrug antibody response to BI-1607 in blood serum
- Assessment of the CD32b receptor occupancy (RO) of BI-1607 on B cells when administered in combination with trastuzumab [30 days after the last dose of BI-1607]
RO on circulating B lymphocytes
- Assessment of the possible antitumor activity of BI-1607 in combination with trastuzumab [1 year after the last treatment]
Best tumor response, objective response rate (ORR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1, progression-free survival (PFS), time to response, duration of response (DOR) and OS
Other Outcome Measures
- Exploratory: investigate expression levels of Fc receptors, and other immunological markers on immune cells infiltrating the tumor [1 day]
Expression levels of Fc receptors (eg, CD32b) and other markers of immunological activity using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and/or nucleotide-based assays using tissue samples
- Exploratory: investigate the genetic background of subjects with respect to FcgammaR isoforms and explore a potential correlation of the genetic background with clinical responses [1 day]
Determination of Fcgamma receptor isoforms using nucleotide-based assays on genetic material extracted from whole blood
- Exploratory: explore any exposure-response and/or exposure-safety relationship between BI-1607 serum concentrations and clinical outcome [1 day]
Correlation of BI-1607 PK and antitumor activity measures, as well as to safety measures of interest
