About

This is a phase 1/2 open label sequential dose escalation and cohort expansion study evaluating the safety, tolerability and preliminary antitumor activity of COM701 in combination with BMS-986207 and nivolumab in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Full description

This phase 1/2 study evaluates the safety/tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary antitumor activity of COM701 an inhibitor of poliovirus receptor related immunoglobulin domain containing (PVRIG) in combination with BMS-986207 (an inhibitor of TIGIT) and nivolumab in subjects with advanced solid tumors. The study will consist of 2 parts (part 1 - dose escalation and part 2 - dose expansion).

Part 1: escalating doses of COM701 will be combined with fixed doses of BMS-986207 and nivolumab. Upon completion of dose escalation a recommended dose of COM701 in combination with BMS-986207 and nivolumab (3-drug combination) will be determined.

Part 2: subjects will be administered the recommended dose of COM701 in combination with BMS-986207 and nivolumab. Subjects will be enrolled into one of three cohorts based on their cancer type.

Cohort 1: subjects with platinum resistant/refractory ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer will receive study treatment with the 3-drug combination.

Cohort 2: subjects with MSS- endometrial cancer will receive study treatment with the 3-drug combination.

Cohort 3 (Basket cohort): subjects with tumors that have high expression of a biomarker (PVRL2) will receive study treatment with the 3-drug combination. Subjects with tumor types in cohorts 1, 2 and 4 will not be enrolled into this cohort.

Cohort 4: subjects with HNSCC. This cohort will enroll subjects who have received treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor or subjects who have received treatment with chemotherapy but not an immune checkpoint inhibitor. All subjects enrolled in this cohort will receive study treatment with the 3-drug combination.

Enrollment: 48 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

During cohort expansion: All subjects must have measurable disease as defined by RECIST v1.1.

Expansion Cohorts:

• Subjects must have documented MSS status by an approved test e.g. genomic testing, IHC for mismatch repair proficient.
• Subjects must have received no more than 2 prior systemic cytotoxic therapies; there are no limits to the number of prior endocrine or antiangiogenic regimens
• Cohort 3 (basket cohort, excludes tumor types in cohorts 1 and 2)
• Tumor types with high expression of PVRL2 (determined by central testing).
• Cohort 4 (Head and Neck cancer)
• Histologically confirmed recurrent or metastatic HNSCC (oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx, hypopharynx, nasopharynx, paranasal sinus, nasopharyngeal)
• Cohort 4a - IO naïve. Eligible subjects can be systemic therapy naïve (frontline) or platinum failure.

• Cohort 2: Prior therapy with COM701 (or any inhibitor of PVRIG) or anti-TIGIT antibody. Subjects with MSI-H endometrial cancer are ineligible.
• Cohort 3: Prior therapy with COM701 (or any inhibitor of PVRIG) or anti-TIGIT antibody are ineligible.
• Cohort 4: Subjects who have received prior therapy with COM701 (or any inhibitor of PVRIG), anti-TIGIT antibody, anti-CTLA-4 antibody, anti-OX-40 antibody, anti-CD137 antibody. Subjects in cohort 4a must be IO-naïve.
