Tarveda Therapeutics to Present Data from Phase 1 Study of PEN-221 at the 2018 American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting

On May 17, 2018 Tarveda Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company discovering and developing Pentarins as a new class of potent and selective cancer medicines, reported that it will present Phase 1 results from a Phase 1/2a study of PEN-221 in patients with neuroendocrine tumors or small cell lung cancer at the 2018 American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting occurring June 1-5, 2018 in Chicago IL (Press release, Tarveda Therapeutics, MAY 17, 2018, View Source [SID1234526784]).

The data presented will describe the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of PEN-221, a miniature drug conjugate containing a peptide ligand that is highly selective in targeting the somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) that is conjugated to the potent payload DM1. SSTR2 is a cell surface target that is overexpressed in a variety of solid tumor cancers. PEN-221 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 2a trial in patients with gastrointestinal midgut neuroendocrine tumors, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, or small cell lung cancer.

"We are very pleased to have completed the Phase 1 portion of our Phase 1/2a clinical trial for PEN-221 on schedule and to present the data from the Phase 1 trial evaluating PEN-221 at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper)," said Drew Fromkin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tarveda. "We are encouraged by the data from studies of PEN-221 to date and look forward to advancing the Phase 2a portion of the study for PEN-221 as well as our Phase 1 trial for PEN-866."

Details of the poster presentation are as follows:

Title: First in human phase 1/2a study of PEN-221 somatostatin analog (SSA)-DM1 conjugate for patients (PTS) with advanced neuroendocrine tumor (NET) or small cell lung cancer (SCLC): Phase 1 results.

About Pentarins
Tarveda is developing Pentarins, potent and selective miniature drug conjugates with high affinity for specific cell surface and intracellular targets. Pentarins are engineered to bind to their tumor cell targets and provide sustained release of their potent therapeutic payloads deep into solid tumor tissue. Comprised of a targeting ligand conjugated to a potent cancer cell killing agent through a tuned chemical linker, Pentarins are designed to overcome the deficits of both larger antibody drug conjugates and small molecules that limit their therapeutic effectiveness against solid tumors. Together, the components of Tarveda’s Pentarins have distinct, yet synergistic, anticancer attributes: the small size of Pentarins allows for rapid and deep penetration into the tumor tissue, the ligand’s targeting ability allows for specific binding and retention in tumor cells, and the chemical linker is tuned to optimize the release of the potent, cell killing payload inside the cancer cells for efficacy.

"AML patients who undergo induction chemotherapy suffer severe and prolonged neutropenia, and the results from this study show significantly reduced infections in the CLT-008 group relative to control"

Tweet this
Cellerant is developing CLT-008, a universal, off-the-shelf cell therapy intended to prevent infections during neutropenia. Neutropenia is a serious side effect of myelosuppressive chemotherapy that leaves patients at high risk of serious, potentially life-threatening infections, leading to prolonged hospitalization and often reduced or delayed treatment doses. The Company conducted a randomized, controlled Phase 2 study of CLT-008 in patients newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who received induction chemotherapy.

"AML patients who undergo induction chemotherapy suffer severe and prolonged neutropenia, and the results from this study show significantly reduced infections in the CLT-008 group relative to control," said Ram Mandalam, Ph.D., CEO of Cellerant Therapeutics. "This product addresses a serious unmet need in AML patients. We are excited to present the study results at these two important medical meetings, and look forward to advancing CLT-008 to a Phase 3 study."

Presentation details are as follows:

ASCO Abstract #7043: Abboud, et al., A randomized controlled open label exploratory trial of CLT-008 myeloid progenitor cells (MPC) to decrease infections during induction for AML. Poster discussion on June 4, 2018, 8:00-11:30am CDT. Presenting author: Farhad Ravandi, M.D., Janiece and Stephen A. Lasher Professor of Medicine, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

EHA Abstract #1405: Desai, et al., Decreased incidence of infection, use of antibacterials and days in hospital after administration of CLT-008 myeloid progenitor cells to subjects receiving AML induction therapy: Phase 2 Study Results. Oral presentation on June 16, 2018, 4:45-5:00pm CEST. Presenting author: Pinkal Desai, M.D., M.P.H., Assistant Professor of Medicine, Weill Cornell Medicine, New York.

About Ropotrectinib (TPX-0005)

Ropotrectinib (TPX-0005) is a potent and orally bioavailable investigational small molecule kinase inhibitor for ALK, ROS1, and TRK family. The clinical benefits of targeting ALK, ROS1, or TRK fusion kinase have been demonstrated with multiple kinase inhibitors already approved for the treatment of ALK+ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), in addition to crizotinib for ROS1+ NSCLC, and larotrectinib and entrectinib in clinical studies for TRK+ cancers. The successes of these therapies are overshadowed by the development of acquired resistance. The acquired solvent front mutations including ALK G1202R, ROS1 G2032R, TRKA G595R and TRKC G623R render a common clinical resistance to the current ALK, ROS1, and TRK inhibitors. TPX-0005 is a potent kinase inhibitor against wildtype and mutated ALK, ROS1 and TRK family kinases, especially the clinically significant solvent front mutations, gatekeeper mutations, and emerging compound mutations after multiple line treatments. Ropotrectinib may provide new opportunities in the clinic to inhibit the abnormal signaling of ALK, ROS1, or TRK family in solid malignancies, and overcome resistance seen in refractory patients. TPX-0005 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1/2, open-label, multi-center, first-in-human study of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and anti-tumor activity in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring ALK, ROS1, or NTRK1-3 rearrangements (TRIDENT-1, NCT03093116). For additional information about ropotrectinib trial, please refer to www.clinicaltrials.gov.
