MC# 22-09 - A Phase I, Dose-Escalation and Dose-Expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Antitumor Activities of CS5001, an Anti-ROR1 Antibody Drug Conjugate, in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors and Lymphomas
-
Agent(s): CS5001
-
Disease Type(s): Lymphoma, Solid Tumor
-
Phase(s): I
-
Drug Classification(s): Targeted Therapy, Antibody Drug Conjugate
-
Molecular Target(s): ROR1
Mechanism of Action
CS5001 is a highly differentiated Antibody Drug Conjugate targeting ROR1. ROR1 is expressed across a variety of cancers, and may play an important role in oncogenesis by activating cell survival signaling events.
Purpose
In this study, the sponsor and investigators want to learn:
- How much of CS5001 can be given with an acceptable level of side effects
- About the safety and tolerability of CS5001
- If the body’s immune system has a response to CS5001
- The effects of CS5001 (good and bad)
- How much of CS5001 is absorbed into the blood and how fast it is removed
Inclusion Criteria
- Patients must have progressed on or been intolerant to available standard therapies that are known to provide clinical benefit. Note: Prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy included in initial treatment may not be considered first- or later-line standard of treatment unless such treatments were completed less than 6 months prior to the current tumor recurrence.
- Phase Ia:
- a. Solid tumor: Pathologically confirmed, unresectable advanced solid tumor with disease progression on or after at least 1 line of prior systemic therapy. Preferred tumor types include breast, lung, gynecologic, prostate, skin, adrenal, testicular, colon, bladder, pancreatic, gastric, kidney, cholangiocarcinoma, and esophageal cancers.
- b. Lymphoma: Pathologically confirmed Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma as defined per 2016 WHO classification, with disease progression on or after at least 2 lines of prior systemic therapy
- Patients with indolent lymphomas must be candidates for systemic treatment in the judgment of the investigator
- Patients with relapse or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma must have received brentuximab vedotin and at least one checkpoint inhibitor
- Phase Ib:
- c. Arm A (MCL):
- i. Pathologically confirmed mantel cell lymphoma (MCL), with documentation of either overexpression of cyclin D1 or presence of t(11;14)
- ii. Relapse or refractory disease following at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. Prior therapy must have included Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi)
- d. Arm B (DLBCL): Pathologically confirmed DLBCL not otherwise specified (NOS) as defined per 2016 WHO classification. Patients with transformed lymphomas are permitted.
- i. Relapse or refractory disease following at least two prior lines of systemic therapy
- e. Arm C (TNBC):
- i. Pathologically confirmed advanced triple-negative breast cancer, who have progressive disease on or after at least 2 lines of systemic therapy for advanced disease
- ii. Positive ROR1 expression in baseline tumor tissue determined by a central IHC assay with any cytoplasmic or membranous staining at any intensity on tumor cells
- c. Arm A (MCL):
- Phase Ia: Patients with at least one evaluable lesion as defined per RECIST v1.1 solid tumor or 2014 Lugano Classification Criteria for lymphoma, respectively
Phase Ib: Patients with at least one measurable lesion as defined per RECIST v1.1 solid tumor or per 2014 Lugano Classification Criteria for lymphoma, respectively. Note: Radiographic tumor assessment should be performed within 28 days prior to the first dose of study treatment. Tumor lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been demonstrated in such lesions. - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 - 1
- Fertile men and women of childbearing potential must agree to use an effective method of birth control from providing signed consent and for 180 days after the last investigational product administration (refer to Appendix 6). Women of childbearing potential include pre-menopausal women and women within the first 2 years of the onset of menopause. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test ≤ 7 days prior to the first dose of the investigational product.
- After the approval from local health authorities is obtained (if applicable), all patients must agree to provide baseline tumor samples at Screening for biomarker analysis. For TNBC patients in Phase Ib Arm C, positive ROR1 expression as determined by a central IHC assay must be obtained at Screening to be eligible for the study.
- a. Baseline tumor samples can be formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) archival specimens or fresh biopsies collected when deemed medically safe by the Investigator
- b. Acceptable tumor tissue includes core needle punctured, resected or incisional biopsy, or surgical sample. Tissue from tumor progressing at a site of prior radiation may be allowed.
- Fresh biopsy, if applicable, should not be obtained from RECIST, or 2014 Lugano Classification Criteria defined target lesions if possible. Consult the Sponsor for eligibility when no other lesions are suitable for biopsy.
Exclusion Criteria
- Has disease that is suitable for local treatment administered with curative intent
- For lymphoma, candidacy for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) based on the Investigator’s judgment

- Known central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma or solid tumor CNS metastasis that is either symptomatic, untreated, or requires therapy. Central nervous system metastases that have been treated by complete resection and/or radiotherapy demonstrating stability or improvement are not an exclusion criterion provided they are stable as shown by imaging for at least 4 weeks before Screening without evidence of cerebral edema and no requirements for corticosteroids or anticonvulsants.
- Other acute or chronic medical or psychiatric conditions, including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation or behavior or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
