Abstract LB-B04: A multi-omic surfaceome study identifies DLK1 as an epigenetically regulated protein and immunotherapeutic target in neuroblastoma

Excerpt:
To date, ADCT-701 treatment resulted in maintained complete response (N=2), complete response (N=3) and stable disease (N=1) in models with high DLK1 expression...DLK1 is an epigenetically regulated immunotherapeutic target in neuroblastoma. ADCT-701 shows potent activity in preclinical models of NB and should be prioritized for clinical development.

Title:

Abstract 744: ADCT-701, a novel pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) dimer-based antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting DLK1-expressing tumors

Excerpt:
In vitro, ADCT-701 demonstrated potent cytotoxicity in a panel of human cancer cell lines of different origin and levels of DLK-1...In vivo, ADCT-701 showed potent anti-tumor activity in the DLK1-expressing neuroblastoma-derived SK-N-FI xenograft in which a single dose of ADCT-701 at 0.5 or 1 mg/kg showed dose-dependent anti-tumor activity...In conclusion, ADCT-701 demonstrated potent and specific in vitro and in vivo anti-tumor activity in DLK-1-expressing cancer-derived models and it was stable and well tolerated in the rat, warranting further development of this ADC into the clinic.
