Abstract:

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) arises from the uncontrolled proliferation of B-cell precursors (BCP-ALL) or T cells (T-ALL). Current treatment protocols obtain high cure rates in children but are based on toxic polychemotherapy. Novel therapies are urgently needed, especially in relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease, high-risk (HR) leukemias and T-ALL, in which immunotherapy approaches remain scarce. Although the interleukin-7 receptor (IL-7R) plays a pivotal role in ALL development, no IL-7R–targeting immunotherapy has yet reached clinical application in ALL. The IL-7Rα chain (CD127)–targeting IgG4 antibody lusvertikimab (LUSV; formerly OSE-127) is a full antagonist of the IL-7R pathway, showing a good safety profile in healthy volunteers. Here, we show that ∼85% of ALL cases express surface CD127. We demonstrate significant in vivo efficacy of LUSV immunotherapy in a heterogeneous cohort of BCP- and T-ALL patient-derived xenografts (PDX) in minimal residual disease (MRD) and overt leukemia models, including R/R and HR leukemias. Importantly, LUSV was particularly effective when combined with polychemotherapy in a phase 2-like PDX study with CD127high samples leading to MRD-negativity in >50% of mice treated with combination therapy. Mechanistically, LUSV targeted ALL cells via a dual mode of action comprising direct IL-7R antagonistic activity and induction of macrophage-mediated antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP). LUSV–mediated in vitro ADCP levels significantly correlated with CD127 expression levels and the reduction of leukemia burden upon treatment of PDX animals in vivo. Altogether, through its dual mode of action and good safety profile, LUSV may represent a novel immunotherapy option for any CD127+ ALL, particularly in combination with standard-of-care polychemotherapy.

Canadian Real-World Study Long-Term Clinical Results Using Dupilumab for Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Polyps

Article

Author: Kilty, Shaun J. ; Lasso, Andrea

Background:

Dupilumab, an anti-IL4 receptor-α monoclonal antibody, was the first biologic to be approved in Canada for the treatment of Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP). In phase III clinical trials, it has demonstrated to be effective in reducing nasal polyp size and the severity of symptoms, improve disease-specific quality of life, and to have an acceptable safety profile. This study aims to present long-term follow-up data on disease-specific sinonasal outcomes of patients with CRSwNP who have been treated with dupilumab for up to 3 years in a real-world setting.

Methods:

Retrospective review of electronic medical records of a single Canadian rhinology center evaluating disease-specific sinonasal outcomes that are routinely collected for clinical care. This study included all patients who received dupilumab for the treatment of CRSwNP and who had completed at least one follow-up visit. The Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT)-22 was used to evaluate treatment symptom improvement.

Results:

Ninety-nine patients started dupilumab therapy during the study period. The mean SNOT-22 at the start of therapy was 61.1 (±22.91) At the time of the review, 65 patients had completed 1 year of therapy, 40 had completed 2 years of therapy, and 18 had completed 3 years of therapy. The mean SNOT-22 score at these timepoints was 16.75 (±13.86), 15.02 (±14.40), and 10.22 (±11.56), respectively.

Conclusion:

This real-world study shows that in patients with CRSwNP treated with dupilumab, improvement in disease-specific quality of life seen after 1 year continues and can be maintained at 3 years of treatment.

First-in-Human Study in Healthy Subjects with the Noncytotoxic Monoclonal Antibody OSE-127, a Strict Antagonist of IL-7Rα

Article

Abstract:

OSE-127 is a humanized mAb targeting the IL-7Rα-chain (CD127), under development for inflammatory and autoimmune disease treatment. It is a strict antagonist of the IL-7R pathway, is not internalized by target cells, and is noncytotoxic. In this work, a first-in-human, phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-center study was carried out to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity of OSE-127 administration. Sixty-three healthy subjects were randomly assigned to nine groups: six single ascending dose groups with i.v. administration (0.002–10 mg/kg), a single s.c. treatment group (1 mg/kg), and two double i.v. injection groups (6 or 10 mg/kg). Subjects were followed during <146 d. OSE-127’s pharmacokinetic half-life after a single dose increased from 4.6 (1 mg/kg) to 11.7 d (10 mg/kg) and, after a second dose, from 12.5 (6 mg/kg) to 16.25 d (10 mg/kg). Receptor occupancy was ≥95% at doses ≥0.02 mg/kg, and this saturation level was maintained >100 d after two i.v. infusions at 10 mg/kg. IL-7 consumption was inhibited by OSE-127 administration, as demonstrated by a decreased IL-7 pathway gene signature in peripheral blood cells and by ex vivo T lymphocyte restimulation experiments. OSE-127 was well tolerated, with no evidence of cytokine-release syndrome and no significant alteration of blood lymphocyte counts or subset populations. Altogether, the observed lack of significant lymphopenia or serious adverse events, concomitant with the dose-dependent inhibition of IL-7 consumption by target cells, highlights that OSE-127 may show clinical activity in IL-7R pathway–involved diseases.

OSE Immunotherapeutics to Present Anti-IL-7R Lusvertikimab Phase 2 Induction Results in Ulcerative Colitis at 20th Congress of ECCO

A clinical abstract on the induction results from the CoTikiS Phase 2 trial of anti-IL-7 Receptor Lusvertikimab in Ulcerative Colitis accepted for Oral Presentation and selected amongst the Top 10 oral abstracts for 20th Congress of European Crohn’s and Colitis Organization (ECCO) Highlights. Research highlights OSE Immunotherapeutics’ continued commitment to advancing the treatment and management of IBD. NANTES, France, December 18, 2024 – 6:00pm CET - OSE Immunotherapeutics SA (ISIN: FR0012127173; Mnemo: OSE), today announced that an abstract related to its first in class anti-IL-7 Receptor (IL-7R) Lusvertikimab, has been accepted for Oral Presentation at the 20th congress of the European Crohn’s and Colitis Organization (ECCO) being held February 19-22, 2025, in Berlin (Germany). Details of the presentation: EC25-1892 - "Lusvertikimab, a first-in-class IL7 receptor antagonist, in moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis: results of a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled phase II study" has been accepted as an Oral Presentation in the Scientific Program and selected amongst the Top 10 oral abstracts for the Congress Highlights of ECCO’25 video. Presentation number: OP36Session name: Sustainability in IBD and beyond - Session 10: Hot topics in IBDSession date: 22/02/25; Session time: 08:30 - 10:50; Presentation time: 10:10 - 10:20Session hall: Plenary Hall / Hall B Nicolas Poirier, Chief Executive Officer of OSE Immunotherapeutics, comments: “We are excited to present for the first time at a congress the clinical efficacy and safety data from the induction study in ulcerative colitis. This prestigious scientific meeting gathers the world’s leading specialists in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD). Lusvertikimab, a pure interleukin-7 receptor antagonist mAb that exclusively blocks IL-7 boasts a differentiated mechanism of action and a favorable tolerance profile. We believe Lusvertikimab is uniquely positioned in IBD, with potential also for a broader spectrum of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.” Interleukin-7 (IL-7) produced locally by epithelial cells is a crucial survival factor for pathogenic T lymphocytes residing in tissues, such as colitogenic memory T cells1. Lusvertikimab is a unique antagonist of IL-7R targeting the CD127 receptor, the alpha chain of the IL-7R, with a differentiated mechanism of action allowing a selective inhibition of the IL-7 biology while sparing TSLP (Thymic Stromal LymphoPoietin) cytokine and growth factor. This allows potent inhibition of pathogenic memory and effector T lymphocytes expressing high level of CD127, while promoting regulatory T cells (Tregs) biology expressing low level of CD127. The protective role of TSLP in intestinal immunity has been reproducibly described, in particular to instruct Treg generation against commensal bacteria2 and TSLP inhibition has been reported to exacerbate mucosal inflammation and colitis3. This biology together with the results of the CoTikiS study supports the continued clinical development of a pure IL-7 antagonist in IBD, and other diseases where Tregs and microbiota cross-talks are implicated in tissular healing. Interleukin-7 Receptor (IL-7R) overexpression has been associated with numerous diseases4 and therapeutic areas, with preclinical efficacy already demonstrated in IBD5, rheumatoid arthritis6, neuroinflammation7, airways inflammation8, dermatology9, type 1 diabetes10 and lupus11. ABOUT ULCERATIVE COLITIS (UC)Ulcerative colitis is a chronic disease of the large intestine, in which the lining of the colon becomes inflamed and develops tiny open sores, or ulcers. This condition is the result of the immune system’s overactive response. UC affects 3.3 million patients in the US, Europe and Japan (1). Despite broad therapeutic options, remission rates remain only 25-30% (2) leaving most patients without satisfactory treatments. 15% of patients (3) fail to respond to all therapies and undergo surgery as a last option.(1) EvaluatePharma (2) Drugs Context. 2019; 8: 212572 –doi: 10.7573/dic.212572(3) Scientific Reports volume 10, Article number: 12546 (2020)ABOUT OSE IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS OSE Immunotherapeutics is a biotech company dedicated to developing first-in-class assets in immuno-oncology (IO) and immuno-inflammation (I&I) that address the unmet patient needs of today and tomorrow.

OSE Immunotherapeutics Announces Statistically Significant and Clinically Meaningful Results from the Phase 2 Study of Anti-IL7R mAb Lusvertikimab for the Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis

NANTES, France I November 4, 2024 I OSE Immunotherapeutics SA (ISIN: FR0012127173; Mnemo: OSE), today reported positive results from the induction period of the CoTikiS randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 2 study of Lusvertikimab (OSE-127) demonstrating a strong efficacy and favorable safety profile in moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis (UC). Topline results from the CoTikiS Phase 2 Study The randomized, double-blind Phase 2 clinical trial CoTikiS has evaluated the efficacy and the safety of Lusvertikimab versus placebo in 136 patients with moderate to severe active UC who failed or lost response to previous treatment(s)*. CoTikiS is a 50-week study, with a 10-week induction period evaluating two doses (450mg or 850mg) of Lusvertikimab against placebo, a 24-week additional open label treatment extension period (OLE) during which all subjects received Lusvertikimab 850mg infusions every 4 weeks and a 16-week safety follow-up period free of treatment. Lusvertikimab (Lusv) met the primary efficacy endpoint defined by the improvement of the Modified Mayo Score (MMS)** at week 10 (W10) at the two doses tested and demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful results on key secondary endpoints. A favorable safety profile was observed during both the induction period and during the 6 months of open-label extension period trial. 134 patients were analyzed in the W0-W10 period [group 850mg (50 patients); group 450mg (35 patients); drug group pooled 850mg + 450mg (85 patients); group placebo (49 patients)]. A total of 120 patients treated with Lusvertikimab participated to the additional 24-week OLE treatment period. Final analysis of the primary endpoint at W10*** Improvement of the global Disease Activity Index of UC (MMS) Key secondary endpoint results at W10 Clinical remission**** Endoscopic remission (endoscopic score at 0) Endoscopic improvement (endoscopic score ≤ 1 point) Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic index of Severity***** (UCEIS score decreases at week 10) Safety Profile Lusvertikimab displayed a good safety profile and was well tolerated, with no difference between both dose groups and placebo in the incidence of drug related serious adverse events (SAEs), adverse events (AEs) leading to discontinuation, severe drug-related AEs, opportunistic infections or infusion reactions during the induction period. In addition, no safety signal was observed in the patient population who received 850mg of Lusvertikimab for an additional 24-week period in the OLE, regardless of the initial randomization groups. Pr. Arnaud Bourreille, Associate professor in Gastroenterology, Institut des Maladies de l’Appareil Digestif, Nantes University Hospital, Principal/ Scientific coordination of the CoTikiS study , said: “We are very excited to share these positive topline efficacy results which could establish Lusvertikimab as a potential new breakthrough therapeutic option for UC patients. We are beyond enthusiastic with the very high endoscopy efficacy and what it could mean for patients suffering from chronic ulcerative colitis. This promising drug-candidate with a differentiated mode of action and very good safety profile needs to be further actively explored in ulcerative colitis and in other indications. We are grateful to all the investigators and patients for their participation in this study and we are eager to present a more complete clinical and biomarkers data set in future medical congresses.” Nicolas Poirier, Chief Executive Officer of OSE Immunotherapeutics , adds: “These impressive efficacy and safety results represent a major milestone in the clinical development of Lusvertikimab and a strong catalyst for the subsequent steps. Lusvertikimab has clearly demonstrated meaningful clinical proof-of-efficacy in UC and we are now looking forward to further evaluating it in additional studies with the ultimate goal of making this innovative therapy accessible to millions of patients in need of more efficacious and safe treatments. Lusvertikimab is a pure interleukin-7 receptor antagonist mAb and we believe it has a broad first-in-class potential in various chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. We look forward to making progress on this strategy and to go ahead with the most relevant partners.” * Previous corticosteroids, immunosuppressive agents or previous biological treatments. ** Ulcerative Colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the rectum and colon characterized by mucosal inflammation, abdominal pain associated with symptoms and frequency of diarrhea and rectal bleeding. The moderate to severe UC is measured by a Modified Mayo Score (MMS) between 4 and 9, inclusive. The primary endpoint is the mean change at Week 10 from baseline in the Modified Mayo Score, a Disease Activity Index for UC defined by the addition of the stool frequency and the rectal bleeding sub-scores (two patient’s clinical elements as Patient Reported Outcomes) and the endoscopic sub-score (mucosal endoscopy activity), assessed by an endoscopist through a central reading platform. *** An interim Futility analysis performed early (about 30% of patients) by the IDMC proposed interruption of the 450 mg group for risk of futility. The 850 mg group was initially considered as primary analysis, in the final analysis the futility of the 450mg was not confirmed. SAP (Statistical Analysis Plan) Addendum: Results of 450mg group reconsidered with all patients already included in this group. In addition, the two groups have been pooled for the drugs cohort to a global treatment effect. **** Clinical remission at Week 10, a modified Mayo score of ≤ 2 points with no individual sub-score of > 1 point and a rectal bleeding at 0, therefore a stool frequency score of 0 or 1 and an endoscopic score of 0 or 1. ***** Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity, UCEIS, is a validated endoscopic scoring tool with lower interobserver variability, score change at Week 10 from baseline measuring specific subscores: vascular pattern/ presence of bleeding/ erosions and ulcerations (Pabla B S et al Gastroenterol Clin North Am. 2020).
