RESUMEN
Background: BAY 1862864 is an α-particle emitting 227Th-labeled CD22-targeting antibody. This first-in-human dose-escalation phase I study evaluated BAY 1862864 in patients with CD22-positive relapsed/refractory B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R-NHL). Materials and Methods: BAY 1862864 intravenous injections were administered at the starting 227Th radioactivity dose of 1.5 MBq (2 or 10 mg antibody), and the radioactivity dose escalated in â¼1.5 MBq increments (10 mg antibody) until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was reported. The primary objective was to determine the safety, tolerability, and MTD. Results: Twenty-one patients received BAY 1862864. Two dose-limiting toxicities (grade 3 febrile neutropenia and grade 4 thrombocytopenia) were reported in one patient in the 4.6 MBq (10 mg antibody) cohort. The MTD was not reached. Ten (48%) patients reported grade ≥3 treatment-emergent adverse events, with the most common being neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and leukopenia, each occurring in 3 (14%) patients. Pharmacokinetics demonstrated the dose proportionality and stability of BAY 1862864 in the blood. The objective response rate (ORR) was 25% (5/21 patients) according to the LUGANO 2014 criteria, including 1 complete and 4 partial responses. The ORR was 11% (1/9) and 30% (3/10) in patients with relapsed high- and low-grade lymphomas, respectively. Conclusions: BAY 1862864 was safe and tolerated in patients with R/R-NHL. Clinical Trial Registration numbers: NCT02581878 and EudraCT 2014-004140-36.
