Brief summary

The purpose of this study was to combine the PDR001 checkpoint inhibitor with each of four agents with immunomodulatory activity to identify the doses and schedule for combination therapy and to preliminarily assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacological and clinical activity of these combinations.

Detailed description

This was a Phase Ib, multi-center, open-label study, to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antitumor activity of PDR001 in combination with canakinumab, CJM112, trametinib and EGF816 and single agent (s.a.) canakinumab in subjects with Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC), Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Colorectal Cancer (CRC). The study comprised a dose escalation part for combination treatments only, followed by a dose expansion part.

Inclusion criteria

* Patients with advanced/metastatic cancer, with measurable disease as determined by RECIST version 1.1, who have progressed despite standard therapy or are intolerant to standard therapy, and for whom no effective therapy is available. Patients must fit into one of the following groups: * Colorectal cancer (CRC) (not mismatch repair deficient by local assay including PCR and/or immunohistochemistry) * Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (adenocarcinoma) * Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) (D * ECOG Performance Status ≤ 2 * Patient must have a site of disease amenable to biopsy, and be a candidate for tumor biopsy according to the treating institution's guidelines. Patient must be willing to undergo a new tumor biopsy at baseline, and again during therapy on this study. * Prior therapy with PD-1/PDL-1 inhibitors is allowed provided any toxicity attributed to prior PD-1- or PD-L1-directed therapy did not lead to discontinuation of therapy. * Written informed consent must be obtained prior to any screening procedures other than procedures performed as part of standard of care.

Exclusion criteria

* Presence of symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases, or CNS metastases that require local CNS-directed therapy, or increasing doses of corticosteroids within the prior 2 weeks. * History of severe hypersensitivity reactions to other monoclonal antibodies. * Out of range laboratory values for measures of hepatic and renal function, electrolytes and blood counts * Impaired cardiac function or clinically significant cardiac disease. * Patients with active, known or suspected autoimmune disease. * Human Immunodeficiency Virus infection at screening. * Escalation part: Active Hepatitis B (HBV) or Hepatitis C (HCV) virus infection at screening. Expansion part: Patients with active HBV or HCV are excluded, excepting those patients undergoing treatment for HBV or HCV. * Malignant disease, other than that being treated in this study. * Recent systemic anti-cancer therapy * Active infection requiring systemic antibiotic therapy. * Patients requiring chronic treatment with systemic steroid therapy, other than replacement dose steroids in the setting of adrenal insufficiency or treatment with low, stable dose of steroid (\<10mg/ day prednisone or equivalent) for stable CNS metastatic disease. * Patients receiving systemic treatment with any immunosuppressive medication, excepting the above * Use of any live vaccines against infectious diseases (e.g. influenza, varicella, pneumococcus) within 4 weeks of initiation of study treatment. * Participation in an interventional, investigational study within 2 weeks of the first dose of study treatment. * Presence of ≥ CTCAE grade 2 toxicity (except alopecia and ototoxicity, which are excluded if ≥ CTCAE grade 3) due to prior cancer therapy. * Recent use of hematopoietic colony-stimulating growth factors (e.g. G-CSF, GMCSF, M-CSF) Additional
