TPS2655 Background: In patients (pts) with locally advanced or metastatic G/GEJ cancer, fluoropyrimidine- and platinum (plt)-based combination chemotherapy is first-line standard of care. Despite improvement in chemotherapy regimens, outcomes are poor and survival remains low. Tislelizumab, an investigational anti-PD-1 antibody, was engineered to minimize binding of FcγR on macrophages in order to abrogate antibody-dependent phagocytosis, a mechanism of T-cell clearance and potential resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy. Previous reports suggested tislelizumab, as a single agent and in combination with chemotherapy, was generally well tolerated and had antitumor activity in pts with advanced so…

TPS458 Background: First-line standard of care in patients with locally advanced or metastatic G/GEJ adenocarcinoma is fluoropyrimidine- and platinum (plat)-based combination chemotherapy. Despite improved chemotherapy regimens, outcomes remain poor and survival is low. Tislelizumab, an investigational humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody with high affinity and binding specificity for PD-1, was engineered to minimize binding of FcγR on macrophages in order to abrogate antibody-dependent phagocytosis, a mechanism of T-cell clearance and potential resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy. Previous reports from early phase studies suggested tislelizumab, as a single agent and combined with chemotherapy,…
