Background: Doxorubicin is a standard of care agent for patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma, with a response rate of around 15%, progression-free survival of 5-7 months and cumulative cardiac toxicity that limits its use. TTI-621 is a recombinant soluble fusion protein that combines the N-terminal portion of human SIRPα (the binding domain for CD47) with the Fc region of human IgG1, generating a decoy receptor for CD47 on the surface of tumor cells that both over-rides CD47-mediated inhibition of phagocytosis and provides a pro-phagocytic stimulation. Many solid tumors express high levels of CD47 which is associated with poor prognosis, thought to be the result of CD47-mediated inhibition of macrophage phagocytosis and escape of immune-mediated clearance. Interruption of the CD47-SIRPα signaling pathway using monoclonal antibodies to CD47 has shown anti-tumor activity in animal models and in some early clinical trials. The combination of doxorubicin with CD47-targeted antibodies results in enhanced anti-tumor activity and increased macrophage-mediated cell killing in animal models and macrophage-mediated phagocytosis of cancer cell lines in vitro, suggesting that combining TTI-621 with doxorubicin might be more effective than doxorubicin alone in tumor types that express CD47 and have high numbers of macrophages, such as LMS. Thus, a Phase 1/2 study was initiated to evaluate this combination in patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma, including LMS. Methods: TTI-621-03 is a Phase 1/2, open-label study of TTI-621 in combination with doxorubicin in patients with anthracycline-naïve disease. The Phase 1 dose escalation evaluates doses of TTI-621 (0.2 to 2.0 mg/kg) in combination with doxorubicin at 75 mg/m² in patients with high-grade soft tissue sarcomas. Expansion cohorts will evaluate TTI-621 (0.2 and 2.0 mg/kg) with doxorubicin in patients with LMS, with pathology confirmed at a central laboratory. The primary goals of this study are evaluation of safety of TTI-621 administered in combination with standard-of-care doxorubicin and to further evaluate clinical activity (ORR, PFS, OS), safety, PK and patient-reported quality of life in the LMS subpopulation. The dose escalation portion of the study has been completed without DLT. Enrollment to the expansion portion of the study is underway. Clinical trial information: NCT04996004.
