Phase: 2
Start date: April 10, 2024
Planned enrollment: 520
Ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd; DS-7300; MK-2400) is an investigational antibody–drug conjugate being studied for several solid tumors. The most substantial published efficacy results are in previously treated extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). A phase 3 trial is comparing it with physician’s-choice treatment in relapsed SCLC; the results below are from earlier-phase studies, not that comparison. (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov)
The antibody targets B7-H3 (CD276), a protein expressed on many solid tumors. A cleavable linker attaches it to DXd, a topoisomerase I inhibitor intended to damage DNA after delivery to tumor cells. (sciencedirect.com)
In the phase 2 IDeate-Lung01 trial, 48.2% of 137 patients receiving 12 mg/kg had a confirmed objective response. Median response duration was 5.3 months, and median progression-free survival was 4.9 months. In a separate phase 1/2 dose-escalation study across advanced solid tumors, 24 of 70 evaluable patients (34%) had a confirmed response; that study included multiple tumor types and doses. Neither result establishes a survival benefit over existing treatment. (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov)
In IDeate-Lung01, the most common treatment-related adverse events at 12 mg/kg were nausea (43.1%), anemia (34.3%), and neutropenia (34.3%). Adjudicated treatment-related interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis occurred in 12.4%, including grade 3 or worse cases in 4.4%. In the separate dose-escalation study, investigators attributed one death to treatment-related ILD. (ascopubs.org)

Goal: Evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) across multiple previously treated, recurrent or metastatic solid tumors.
Patients: Adults with measurable, progressive disease and ECOG performance status 0–1 in 13 tumor-specific cohorts: endometrial, head and neck squamous cell, pancreatic ductal, microsatellite-stable colorectal, hepatocellular, esophageal/gastroesophageal junction/gastric adenocarcinoma, urothelial, ovarian, cervical, biliary tract, HER2-low breast, HER2 IHC 0 breast cancer, and cutaneous melanoma. Prior-treatment requirements differ by cohort and generally include relevant standard systemic therapies. Patients must provide a recent tumor sample or undergo pretreatment biopsy; those with clinically active brain metastases or prior B7-H3-directed therapy are excluded.
Design: Open-label, nonrandomized, multicohort phase 1b/2 study without a comparator arm. Each cohort begins in stage 1 and may expand to stage 2 if safety and efficacy support continuation. A separate hepatocellular carcinoma safety run-in evaluates tolerability and dose-limiting toxicities.
Treatments: Participants receive intravenous I-DXd, generally 12 mg/kg every 21 days; the hepatocellular carcinoma cohort receives a dose determined by its safety run-in. I-DXd is an investigational antibody–drug conjugate targeting B7-H3 (CD276) that delivers a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload to tumor cells. In separate earlier-phase studies, confirmed objective responses occurred in 48.2% of 137 patients with previously treated extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer at 12 mg/kg and 34% of 70 evaluable patients with advanced solid tumors across doses; these findings do not establish efficacy in the cohorts studied here. Interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis is an important reported safety risk.
Outcomes: The primary efficacy endpoint is investigator-assessed confirmed objective response rate by RECIST v1.1. Primary safety endpoints in the hepatocellular carcinoma cohort include cycle 1 dose-limiting toxicities, treatment-emergent adverse events, and deaths. Secondary endpoints include duration of response, progression-free and overall survival, disease control rate, adverse events, pharmacokinetics, and anti-drug antibodies.
Burden on patient: High. Treatment requires an infusion every 21 days, serial imaging and safety assessments, and a pretreatment tumor biopsy unless an eligible recent sample is available. Pharmacokinetic sampling is particularly intensive in cycles 1 and 3, with blood draws extending to day 21 after dosing; later cycles also require sampling. Repeated clinic visits and monitoring for potentially serious toxicity add to travel and time demands.
