From May 29–31, 2020, Aaron Elliott Lisberg presented at the ASCO 2020 Virtual Meeting "Efficacy and safety results of anti-TROP2 antibody drug DS-1062 in previously treated advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients in the Phase 1 clinical trial."

The Phase 1 clinical trial administered DS-1062 0.27–10.0 mg/kg monotherapy to advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The primary endpoint was dose-limiting toxicity; the secondary endpoint was objective response rate. Patient dose groups were: 0.27 mg/kg (N=4), 0.5 mg/kg (N=5), 1.0 mg/kg (N=7), 2.0 mg/kg (N=6), 4.0 mg/kg (N=6), 6.0 mg/kg (N=19), 8.0 mg/kg (N=8), and 10.0 mg/kg (N=8). A total of 32 patients reached the maximum tolerated dose of DS-1062 at 8.0 mg/kg.

For the secondary endpoint objective response rate, among 88 evaluable patients, 22 achieved partial response. Partial response rates by dose group were: 2.0 mg/kg (1/6), 4.0 mg/kg (2/6), 6.0 mg/kg (5/18), 8.0 mg/kg (13/34), 10.0 mg/kg (1/8).

Regarding safety, the overall adverse event rate was 80% (N=76/95). Grade 3 or higher adverse event rate was 18% (N=17/95). The serious adverse event rate was 8% (N=8). Interstitial lung disease was confirmed in 8% of patients (2 patients in the 6.0 mg/kg group, 6 patients in the 8.0 mg/kg group; N=8 total).

Based on the Phase 1 trial results, Aaron Elliott Lisberg concluded: This was the first-in-human study of the anti-TROP2 antibody drug DS-1062. The trial confirmed that DS-1062 monotherapy at doses of 2.0–10.0 mg/kg demonstrated antitumor activity in previously treated advanced NSCLC patients.
