Abstract
Amulirafusp alfa (IMM0306) is a fusion protein of CD47 binding domain of signal-regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) with CD20 monoclonal antibody on both heavy chains. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of amulirafusp alfa in relapsed or refractory (r/r) B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). We enrolled patients with CD20 + r/r B-NHL who had previously received at least two lines of therapy to receive a single-dose of amulirafusp alfa in the first 2 weeks, followed by a multiple-dose period, in which the patients received the same intravenous dose every week in 4-week cycles. The primary endpoints were to evaluate the safety, determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of amulirafusp alfa. Between May 22, 2020 and February 10, 2022, 48 patients with r/r B-NHL were enrolled and received amulirafusp alfa at the doses of 40–2000 μg/kg. As of the data cut-off date of April 18, 2024, no dose-limiting toxicity was observed, and the MTD was not reached. The dose of 2000 μg/kg was identified as the RP2D. All grades and ≥ grade 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 48 (100%) and 33 (68.8%) patients, respectively. The most common ≥ grade 3 TRAEs were lymphocyte count decreased (28/48, 58.3%), white blood cell count decreased (10/48, 20.8%), absolute neutrophil count decreased (9/48, 18.8%) and anemia (5/48, 10.4%). At the doses of 800–2000 μg/kg, objective response rate in follicular lymphoma and marginal zone lymphoma was 41.2% (7/17, 95% confidence interval [CI] 18.4–67.1) and 33.3% (2/6, 95% CI 3.7–71.0), respectively. Amulirafusp alfa showed favorable safety profile and preliminary efficacy in patients with r/r B-NHL, meriting further investigation. Trial registration NCT05805943.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Hematology & Oncology, an open-access journal, publishes high-quality research covering all aspects of hematology and oncology, including reviews and research highlights on "hot topics" by leading experts.
Given the close relationship and rapid evolution of hematology and oncology, the journal aims to meet the demand for a dedicated platform for publishing discoveries from both fields. It serves as an international platform for sharing laboratory and clinical findings among laboratory scientists, physician scientists, hematologists, and oncologists in an open-access format. With a rapid turnaround time from submission to publication, the journal facilitates real-time sharing of knowledge and new successes.
