A multicenter phase 1 study of solitomab (MT110, AMG 110), a bispecific EpCAM/CD3 T-cell engager (BiTE®) antibody construct, in patients with refract…

ABSTRACT We assessed the tolerability and antitumor activity of solitomab, a bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE®) antibody construct targeting epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM). Patients with relapsed/refractory solid tumors not amenable to standard therapy received solitomab as continuous IV infusion in a phase 1 dose-escalation study with six different dosing schedules. The primary endpoint was frequency and severity of adverse events (AEs). Secondary endpoints included pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity, and antitumor activity. Sixty-five patients received solitomab at doses between 1 and 96 µg/day for ≥28 days. Fifteen patients had dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs): e…
Combining dasatinib with dexamethasone long-term leads to maintenance of antiviral and antileukemia specific cytotoxic T cell responses in vitro
2012
Maintaining graft versus leukemia (GvL) and antivirus responses of cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) while suppressing graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) remains a challenge after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Clinical observations indicate that combining glucocorticoids with multi-tyrosine-kinase inhibitors could be a successful therapeutic approach. We and others have shown that the BCR-ABL/SRC kinase inhibitor dasatinib may enhance or suppress T cells in vitro. In this report, we evaluated combination effects of dasatinib and dexamethasone on CD3 + and virus-specific CD8 + T cells directly ex vivo and on antigen-specific leukemia-reactive and alloreactive CD8 + T cell clones. Functional o…
