Yingli Pharma Announces Successful End-of-Phase 2 Meeting with FDA and Clearance of Global Multi-center Phase 3 Registration Study Design of Linperlisib for the Treatment of Relapsed and/or Refractory Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma

On April 1, 2025 Shanghai Yingli Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Yingli Pharma), a clinical stage biotechnology company developing oral small molecule drugs for cancer, metabolic, and immune diseases, reported that it has received clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to initiate a global registration Phase 3 study of linperlisib versus physicians’ choice of standard of care for the treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) (Press release, Yingli Pharmaceutical, APR 1, 2025, View Source [SID1234651730]). FDA’s approval of the pivotal Phase 3 protocol follows a successful Type B End-of-Phase 2 meeting, during which Yingli Pharma discussed the overall development program and regulatory path. The Phase 3 study is planned to commence during the second quarter of 2025. Linperlisib is a potent oral small molecule inhibitor of the delta isoform of PI3 kinase (PI3Kδ) developed by Yingli Pharma.

"This is a major milestone for linperlisib.", said Michael Hui, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yingli Pharma, "We are very excited that linperlisib has entered the global pivotal study stage with the agreement from FDA. We will continue our mission to address patient unmet clinical needs globally and to accelerate the linperlisib clinical development program to bring more treatment options for patients with R/R PTCL."

In this Phase 3 study, linperlisib will be evaluated versus physicians’ choice of standard of care in R/R PTCL patients who have received one or more prior systemic therapies. The Phase 3 study will open enrollment in the U.S. and other countries.

About linperlisib
Linperlisib is a next-generation highly selective PI3Kδ inhibitor with a well-tolerated and differentiated safety profile as indicated from clinical trials in follicular lymphoma (FL), T-cell lymphoma and other hematologic and solid tumor studies. In November 2022, linperlisib was approved in China for the treatment of adult patients with R/R FL. Also in 2022, linperlisib received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Orphan Drug Designations for FL, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/ Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma and T-Cell Lymphoma. To date, over 6000 patients have been treated with linperlisib in clinical studies and post market approval with consistent and well-tolerated safety profile.

Linperlisib has been studied in three clinical trials in R/R PTCL in China, U.S. and Europe, with greater than 165 R/R PTCL patients treated. Collectively, these studies have demonstrated a high objective response rate, high complete response rate, promising progression free survival, overall survival, and a very manageable safety profile through the ongoing evaluations. Overall, Chinese, U.S. and European R/R PTCL patients have exhibited similar levels of efficacy and tolerability, establishing a strong foundation for a global registration trial.

The poster presentations will highlight Domain’s progress in leveraging GPCR-targeting therapies to modulate the tumor microenvironment and enhance anti-cancer immune responses.

Details of the poster presentations are as follows:

Poster Title: Comprehensive Characterization of DT-7012, a Differentiated CCR8-Depleting Antibody for the Treatment of Solid Tumors
Session Category: Experimental and Molecular Therapeutics
Session Title: Antireceptors and Other Biological Therapeutic Agents
Date and Time: Sunday 27th April 2025, 14:00 – 17:00 CDT
Location: Poster Section 15
Poster Board Number: 4
Abstract Number: 7080

DT-7012 – A Differentiated CCR8-Depleting Antibody for Solid Tumors

DT-7012 is a highly selective, fully humanized monoclonal antibody targeting CCR8, a receptor predominantly expressed on tumor-resident regulatory T cells ( Tregs ), which suppress anti-tumor immunity.
The study characterizes DT-7012’s binding properties, effector functions, and Treg-depleting activity, supporting its transition into clinical development.

Poster Title: Clinical PK, PD and safety analysis of a phase I clinical trial of DT-9081, an EP4R-antagonist, for RP2D determination in patients with advanced solid tumors
Session Category: Clinical Research
Session Title: Modifiers of the Tumor Microenvironment
Date and Time: Monday 28th April 2025, 14:00 – 17:00 CDT
Location: Poster Section 30
Poster Board Number: 8
Abstract Number: 7450

DT-9081 – Phase I Clinical Data of an EP4R Antagonist for Advanced Solid Tumors

DT-9081 is an oral EP4 receptor ( EP4R ) antagonist designed to inhibit growth by blocking prostaglandin E2 ( PGE2 )-mediated immune suppression. Interim Phase I results demonstrate DT-9081’s favorable safety profile, linear pharmacokinetics, and dose-dependent inhibition of EP4R signaling, with data supporting the recommended Phase II dose ( RP2D ).

Poster Title: PAR2 inhibitors reduce resistance to immunotherapy against cancer
Session Category: Immunology
Session Title: Interplay between Immune System and Radio-, Chemo- and Targeted Therapies 2
Date and Time: Tuesday 29th April, 14:00 – 17:00 CDT
Location: Poster Section 40
Poster Board Number: 9
Abstract Number: 6606

PAR2 – Pivotal driver of resistance to immune checkpoint blockade ( ICB ) and T cell dysfunction in cancer

PAR2 biased NAM represents a transformative breakthrough in immuno-oncology, targeting tumor resistance to ICB. Preclinical findings demonstrate the unique mode of action of PAR2 inhibition. By reshaping the tumor microenvironment, it reduces immunosuppressive macrophages and increases antigen presentation, fostering robust anti-tumor immune responses and thereby improving patient outcomes.

Stephan Schann, Chief Scientific Officer of Domain Therapeutics, said: "These promising preclinical and clinical results for DT-7012 and DT-9081, alongside the preclinical findings on our PAR2 biased NAM demonstrate Domain’s unmatched knowledge in leveraging deep receptor biology to develop differentiated oncology treatments. We look forward to sharing these promising insights with the scientific community as we continue to push the boundaries to ultimately deliver better treatments and transform patients’ lives."

Abstracts are available in an online itinerary planner found here and will be available in an online only supplement to the AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) journal Cancer Research one month after the conference.
