An Open-Label, Single-Arm, Phase 1/2 Dose-Escalation Trial of Long-Acting Recombinant Human IL-7 (NT-I7, Efineptakin-Alpha) for Idiopathic CD4 Lymphopenia

Background:
Idiopathic CD4 lymphopenia (ICL) is a syndrome characterized by low levels of certain immune cells called CD4 T cells. The low CD4 T cells renders people with ICL prone to many types of severe infections, autoimmune diseases, and cancers. Although these infections and diseases can be treated whenever occur, there is currently no treatment that targeting the underlying deficiency of CD4 T cells can provide a definitive treatment for people with ICL.
Objective:
To test a new drug (NT-17) in people with ICL which can increase the number of CD4 T cells
Eligibility:
People aged 18 to 75 years with ICL who are also enrolled in NIH protocol 09-I-0102.
Design:
Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. Some participants with high suspicion of central nervous system infection or history of such infections may also undergo a lumbar puncture. A thin needle will be inserted into their lower back to draw out a sample of the fluid around their spinal cord.
Participants will receive 3 doses of NT-17, each about 12 weeks apart. NT-17 is injected into the muscle of the upper arm, thigh, or buttock. They will visit the clinic 5 days before each dose and again 2 and 4 weeks after each dose. Blood will be drawn at all visits.
Participants will undergo leukapheresis 3 times. Blood will be drawn from a needle in one arm. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the white blood cells. The remaining blood will be given back through a second needle in the other arm.
Some visits will include a rectal swab.
Some participants may have additional tests, including a skin exam, skin biopsies, and medical imaging.
Participants will have 3 follow-up visits every 3 months after they finish treatment.

ABSTRACT:

Lactobacilli, recognized as beneficial bacteria within the human body, are celebrated for their multifaceted probiotic functions, including the regulation of intestinal flora, enhancement of body immunity, and promotion of nutrient absorption. This study comprehensively analyzed the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ( L. plantarum ) strains isolated from the intestines of healthy chicks and assessed their potential as probiotics. The assembled genome consists of 29,521,986 bp, and a total of 1,771 coding sequences (CDSs) were predicted. Based on the entire genome sequence analysis, 50 stress resistance genes and seven virulence factors were identified. The results of the phenotypic experiments showed that the strain had good resistance to high temperature, low temperature, acid, alkali, salt, artificial gastrointestinal fluid, and strong antioxidant capacity. Additionally, transcriptomic analysis confirmed that under stress conditions, the expression levels of key genes were significantly upregulated. Therefore, the phenotypic characteristics of L. plantarum GX17 align well with its genotypic features, demonstrating promising probiotic properties. This strain holds great potential as a probiotic candidate, and further investigation into its beneficial effects on human health is warranted.

IMPORTANCE:

In humans, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum may synergize with host microbiota to ameliorate dysbiosis-related pathologies, enhance immunomodulation, and facilitate micronutrient bioavailability. For livestock, its application could improve feed conversion ratios, suppress enteric pathogens through competitive exclusion, and mitigate antibiotic overuse, “a critical strategy in One Health frameworks.” Further investigations into strain-specific mechanisms (e.g., postbiotic metabolites, quorum sensing regulation) are warranted to translate these genomic-phenotypic advantages into sustainable health solutions across species.

Dose Optimization of rhIL‐7‐hyFc for Patients With Lymphopenia Using a Neonatal Fc Receptor‐Mediated Recycling‐Based and Target‐Mediated Drug Disposition Pharmacokinetic Model

Article

Author: Yun, Hwi‐yeol ; Jung, Woojin ; Choi, Donghoon ; Chae, Jung‐woo ; Jeon, Hye Seon ; Lee, Howard ; Jung, Heeyoon ; Lee, Soyoung ; Byun, Mi‐Sun ; Kim, Anhye ; Lee, Sang Won

ABSTRACT:

Recombinant human interleukin‐7 hybrid Fc (rhIL‐7‐hyFc) is a homodimer of rhIL‐7 fused to a hyFc. Exogenous IL‐7 promotes T cell proliferation and increases lymphocyte count, making it a potential treatment option for lymphopenia and cancer. To improve therapeutic efficacy, rhIL‐7‐hyFc was developed as a long‐acting IL‐7. This study aimed to create a pharmacokinetic model for rhIL‐7‐hyFc by incorporating neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn)‐mediated recycling and target‐mediated drug disposition (TMDD) of the IL‐7 receptor. Data were collected from a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled phase 1 trial involving 30 healthy volunteers who received single doses of rhIL‐7‐hyFc. Volunteers received 20 or 60 mg/kg subcutaneously, 60 mg/kg intramuscularly (IM), or a placebo. Clinical data were provided by Genexine Inc. (Seoul, Republic of Korea). A TMDD‐FcRn–mediated recycling pharmacokinetic model was developed using NONMEM 7.5 software, assisted by PsN 5.3.1 software. A quasi‐steady‐state approximation was used to describe drug‐receptor and drug‐FcRn interactions. The model evaluation included goodness of fit, visual predictive checks, and bootstrap analysis. Based on the pharmacokinetic parameters of the final model, a simulation was conducted to select the dosage regimen, ensuring a probability of at least 0.8 for meeting both safety and efficacy criteria. The model successfully described the pharmacokinetic profiles of 24 patients administered rhIL‐7‐hyFc. Based on the simulation results, 670–800 μg/kg every 3 weeks, 1010–1530 μg/kg every 6 weeks, and 1510–2190 μg/kg every 9 weeks IM were proposed. These results may help further understand rhIL‐7‐hyFc characteristics and, moreover, provide guidance for selecting the appropriate dosing regimen in future clinical trials.

Follicular Lymphoma Overview Follicular lymphoma is a common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that originates from B-cells, a kind of white blood cell responsible for producing antibodies. This cancer is characterized by the growth of abnormal lymphoid follicles, which can disrupt normal lymphatic function. While the exact causes of follicular lymphoma are not fully understood, certain factors may increase the risk, including age (most commonly affecting adults over 60), a family history of lymphoma, and potential environmental factors such as exposure to pesticides or chemicals. Symptoms of follicular lymphoma can vary widely but may include painless swelling of lymph nodes in the neck, armpit, or groin, unexplained weight loss, night sweats, fatigue, and fever. Some patients may remain asymptomatic for extended periods, as this type of lymphoma can progress slowly. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of physical examinations, blood tests, imaging studies (like CT scans), and a biopsy of affected lymph nodes. The biopsy helps determine the subtype and stage of the lymphoma, which is crucial for planning treatment. Treatment for follicular lymphoma depends on the stage of the disease and the patient's overall health. Options may include watchful waiting for asymptomatic cases, chemotherapy, immunotherapy (such as monoclonal antibodies), and targeted therapies. In some cases, stem cell transplants may be considered for patients with more aggressive forms or those who do not respond to initial treatments. Given the indolent nature of follicular lymphoma, ongoing management, and regular monitoring are vital for achieving the best possible outcomes.

NeoImmuneTech Presents Promising Interim Results of CAR-T Combination with its NT-I7 Asset at ESMO 2024

Adequate cell expansion and persistence remains a key challenge that limits the efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapies New clinical results presented at ESMO 2024 show NT-I7 treatment following CAR-T cell administration is safe and well tolerated and improv es clinical outcomes through successful expansion of CAR-T cells ROCKVILLE, Md. , Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- NeoImmuneTech, Inc. (NIT or "NeoImmuneTech"), a global leader in T cell-based immunotherapy, will present interim results of the Phase 1b clinical trial (NIT-112) combining a CAR-T therapy with NT-I7 (efineptakin alfa) during the 'Mini oral session 1: Haematological malignancies' at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) in Barcelona, Spain, from September 13 to 17. These initial results present a promising approach to enhancing the potential of CAR-T therapies while maintaining a stable safety profile. The NIT-112 clinical trial involves patients with Large B-cell Lymphoma (LBCL) who received CAR-T therapies such as Kymriah, Yescarta, or Breyanzi, followed by NT-I7 administration 21 days after CAR-T infusion. The trial aims to evaluate safety, tolerability, the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), and the potential for NT-I7 to enhance CAR-T expansion, persistence and stemness. Interim results show that at dose levels 4 and 5, which are considered mid-level doses (360, 480 µg/kg), NT-I7 demonstrated a stable safety profile. No cases of Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) or Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS), which are known as high-risk side effects of CAR-T therapies, were observed subsequent to NT-I7 administration. Only mild, manageable side effects (Grade 1-2), such as injection site erythema and swelling were observed in 6 out of 11 patients (54.5%). Overall, a strong safety profile was observed. NT-I7 administration resulted in significant amplification of CAR-T cells, prolonged persistence and an increase in T cell stemness, characterized by a higher frequency of T cells with a stem-cell memory (Tscm) phenotype (CD45RA+CCR7+CD95+). The overall response rate (ORR) from the interim results was 81.1% (9 out of 11 patients), with 7 achieving a complete response (CR) and 2 achieving a partial response (PR). Kymriah is known to have an ORR of 52% in LBCL patients. Dr Luke Oh, President and Chief Executive Officer of NeoImmuneTech, Inc., said: "We are thrilled by the preliminary results of study NIT-112 showing NT-I7's ability to amplify CAR-T cells. This successful amplification of CAR-T cells is expected to translate into improved patient outcomes. NIT plans to actively pursue technology transfer related to the combination of NT-I7 with CAR-T therapies and we look forward to accelerating our discussions with the organizations already conducting preclinical studies combining NT-I7 with our own CAR-T technologies." Title: Phase 1b study of NT-I7 (efineptakin alfa), a long-acting IL-7, post-CD19-directed CAR T cell therapy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) Presentation Number: 806MO Speakers: Armin Ghobadi (St. Louis, United States of America) Lecture Time: 15:05 – 15:10 (Fri, 2024. 09. 13) Session Name: Mini oral session 1: Hematological malignancies (ID 31) Room: Toledo Auditorium – Hall 3 About NT-I7 (efineptakin alfa) (rhIL-7-hyFc) NT-I7 (efineptakin alfa) is the only clinical-stage long-acting human IL-7 and is being developed in oncologic and immunologic indications, where T cell amplification and increased functionality may provide clinical benefit. IL-7 is a fundamental cytokine for naïve and memory T cell development and sustaining immune response to chronic antigens (as in cancer) or foreign antigens (as in infectious diseases). NT-I7 exhibits favorable PK/PD and safety profiles, making it an ideal combination partner. NT-I7 is being studied in multiple clinical trials in solid tumors and as vaccine adjuvant. Studies are being planned for testing in hematologic malignancies, additional solid tumors and other immunology-focused indications. About NeoImmuneTech, Inc. NeoImmuneTech, Inc. (NIT) is a clinical-stage T cell-focused biopharmaceutical companydedicated to expanding the horizon of immuno-oncology and enhancing immunity to infectious diseases. NIT is led by the scientific founder and inventor of NT-I7 (efineptakin alfa) and has a strong executive team with rich industry experience.
