TGFβ blockade in pancreatic cancer enhances sensitivity to combination chemotherapy. (PubMed, Gastroenterology)
TGFβ regulates pancreatic cancer cell plasticity between classical and basal cell states. TGFβ blockade in orthotropic models of pancreatic cancer enhances sensitivity to chemotherapy by promoting a classical malignant cell state. This study provides scientific rationale for evaluation of NIS793 with either FOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine/n(ab)paclitaxel chemotherapy backbone in the clinical setting and supports the concept of manipulating cancer cell plasticity to increase the efficacy of combination therapy regimens.

Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and biomarker assessments in daNIS-3, a phase II platform study of NIS793 (anti–TGF-β monoclonal antibody) and other investigational drug combinations with standard of care (SOC) vs SOC alone in patients (pts) with second-line metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). (ASCO-GI 2023)
Pts are treated with NIS793 (Day [D]1 ± D15; 2100 mg) + SOC (D1 + D15; bevacizumab [5 mg/kg] + FOLFIRI/mFOLFOX6) +/- tislelizumab (D1; 300 mg), or SOC alone...The daNIS-3 study started on November 15, 2021, and plans to recruit approximately 266 pts from 77 sites across 19 countries. Clinical trial information: NCT04952753.

Tumor in the Crossfire: Inhibiting TGF-β to Enhance Cancer Immunotherapy. (PubMed, BioDrugs)
Currently, a limited number of small molecular inhibitor and monoclonal antibody candidates that target TGF-β are in clinical development in combination with the following immune checkpoint inhibitors: SRK 181, an antibody inhibiting the activation of latent TGF-β1; NIS 793, a monoclonal antibody targeting TGF-β; and SHR 1701, a fusion protein consisting of an anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody fused with the extracellular domain of human TGF-β receptor II. Several small molecular inhibitors are also in development and are briefly reviewed: LY364947, a pyrazole-based small molecular inhibitor of the serine-threonine kinase activity of TGFβRI; SB-431542, an inhibitor targeting several TGF-β superfamily Type I activin receptor-like kinases as well as TGF-β1-induced nuclear Smad3 localization; and galunisertib, an oral small molecular inhibitor of the TGFβRI kinase. One of the most advanced agents in this area is bintrafusp alfa, a bifunctional fusion protein composed of the extracellular domain of TGF-β receptor II fused to a human IgG1 mAb blocking PD-L1. Bintrafusp alfa is currently in advanced clinical development and as an agent in this space with the most clinical experience, is a focused highlight of this review.

Adore: A Randomized, Open-Label, Phase 1/2 Open-Platform Study Evaluating Safety and Efficacy of Novel Ruxolitinib Combinations in Patients with Myelofibrosis (ASH 2021)
Methods ADORE (NCT04097821) is a 3-part, open-label, multicenter, phase 1/2, platform study that will assess the safety and efficacy of RUX in combination with 5 novel compounds for the treatment of MF: siremadlin (HDM2 inhibitor), crizanlizumab (anti-P-selectin antibody), sabatolimab (anti-TIM-3 antibody), rineterkib (ERK1/2 inhibitor) and NIS793 (anti-TGFβ antibody) ( Figure ). Assuming all five combination treatments enter Part 2 and one combination treatment is expanded in Part 3, a total of 240 patients are planned to be enrolled. The study is open for enrolling into Part 1.
