Dr. Kristopher Wentzel from The Angeles Clinic and Research Institute delivered a presentation discussing the clinical data from the monotherapy dose escalation segment of the ongoing investigation of GV20-0251, an innovative antibody targeting the immune checkpoint IGSF8, in patients with advanced solid tumors (NCT05669430).

Key points from the presentation were:

Patient Demographics: The study included 38 heavily pre-treated patients over six dose levels and two dosing schedules. The median age was 62 years, and patients had a median of 4 prior lines of treatment.

Safety Profile: GV20-0251 was generally well-tolerated at all dose levels (ranging from 0.5 to 20 mg/kg), with no dose-limiting toxicities noted. The majority of treatment-related adverse events were grade 1/2, with only one grade 3 case of pneumonitis reported.

Efficacy Results: In 12 efficacy-evaluable metastatic cutaneous melanoma patients, two confirmed partial responses were noted. Additionally, stable disease was observed in 14 of the 29 efficacy-evaluable patients, including 4 who experienced tumor shrinkage.

Pharmacokinetics: The pharmacokinetics were dose-proportional with a half-life around 25.6 days. Full target occupancy on circulating T cells was observed at doses of 3 mg/kg and above.

“We are buoyed by these positive findings for GV20-0251, which marks a pivotal achievement as the first clinical data for an AI-engineered antibody aimed at an AI-identified target,” remarked Dr. Shirley Liu, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of GV20 Therapeutics. “The favorable safety profile and early signs of efficacy, especially in melanoma patients, underscore the potential of IGSF8 as an innovative immune checkpoint target.”

GV20-0251 has been developed to boost NK cell-mediated killing of malignant cells, enhance dendritic cell antigen presentation, and elevate T cell signaling. This approach could be notably beneficial for patients with tumors that are deficient in antigen presentation, which typically show resistance to current immune checkpoint inhibitors.

The company is actively enrolling cancer patients who have relapsed on or are refractory to anti-PD1 therapies. These patients will be treated with GV20-0251 in combination with pembrolizumab to further assess the drug’s safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy.
