Investigational Drug
Sigvotatug vedotin (SV; formerly SGN‑B6A) is an investigational antibody–drug conjugate (ADC) directed against integrin β6 (ITGB6/αvβ6), a tumor‑associated receptor overexpressed in multiple epithelial cancers and linked to poor prognosis. SV is in phase 1 evaluation across solid tumors and in a randomized phase 3 trial versus docetaxel in previously treated non‑small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov)
Preclinical studies showed antitumor activity across NSCLC, pancreatic, pharyngeal and bladder models, and tolerability in cynomolgus monkeys with hematologic toxicities typical of MMAE ADCs. (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov)
Phase 1 (SGNB6A‑001; NCT04389632) - NSCLC monotherapy: Confirmed ORR 19.0% (95% CI, 12.3–27.3) among 116 patients across dose levels. In a nonsquamous, taxane‑naive subset (n=42), confirmed ORR 31.0% (95% CI, 17.6–47.1) and median PFS 6.4 months (95% CI, 4.5–10.5). (onclive.com) - Combination with pembrolizumab (first‑line NSCLC, early cohort): Confirmed ORR 42.9% (95% CI, 21.8–66.0) in n=21 at ASCO 2025; follow‑up was short and DOR not yet reached. (onclive.com) - Early multi‑tumor phase 1 readouts (ASCO 2023) reported activity across NSCLC, esophageal, and head and neck cohorts and supported ongoing dose‑expansion. (ascopubs.org)
Phase 3 (Be6A Lung‑01; NCT06012435) - Ongoing randomized, open‑label trial comparing SV to docetaxel in previously treated (post‑platinum and anti‑PD‑(L)1) advanced NSCLC; primary endpoints include OS and ORR by BICR. Study start February 21, 2024; primary completion estimated March 12, 2026. (my.clevelandclinic.org)
In phase 1 (data through ASCO 2023 and subsequent updates): - Treatment‑emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in ~89%, grade ≥3 in ~51% (related in ~22%); serious TEAEs in ~37% (related ~8%); discontinuation due to TEAEs ~6%. Most common TEAE was fatigue; most common grade ≥3 event was neutropenia (~8%). Peripheral sensory neuropathy and pneumonia were among discontinuation causes (~1% each). No treatment‑related deaths reported in the cited cutoff. (ascopubs.org) - Toxicities generally aligned with MMAE ADCs (e.g., fatigue, neutropenia, neuropathy); pneumonitis was observed infrequently in NSCLC cohorts. (onclive.com)
Notes - All efficacy results are from early‑phase studies with limited follow‑up and small combination‑therapy cohorts; confirmatory data are pending from ongoing trials. (ascopubs.org)

Found 3 active trials using this drug:
TrialFetch AI summary: Open-label study for adults with previously untreated locally advanced unresectable or metastatic squamous or nonsquamous NSCLC without actionable driver alterations, ECOG 0–1, measurable disease, and available PD-L1 status; Part B requires PD-L1 TPS ≥1%. Patients receive IV PF-08634404, an investigational bispecific PD-1/VEGF antibody, in combination with another anticancer agent, including sigvotatug vedotin, an integrin β6–directed MMAE antibody-drug conjugate, in one cohort.
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07227298
TrialFetch AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with previously untreated, locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC and high PD-L1 expression (≥50%), excluding those with common targetable mutations or prior checkpoint inhibitor therapy, to compare pembrolizumab alone versus pembrolizumab plus sigvotatug vedotin, an integrin beta-6–targeting antibody-drug conjugate.
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06758401
TrialFetch AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors (including NSCLC, HNSCC, HER2-negative breast, esophageal, cutaneous SCC, ovarian, bladder, cervical, pancreatic, and gastric cancers), evaluating the antibody-drug conjugate sigvotatug vedotin—targeting integrin beta-6—with or without pembrolizumab and/or platinum chemotherapy. Eligibility varies by cohort, including both treatment-naïve and previously treated/refractory patients, with fresh or recent tumor biopsy required in some arms.
