A Phase II Single Arm Open-Label Clinical Trial of ADP-A2M4 SPEAR T Cells in Subjects With Advanced Synovial Sarcoma or Myxoid/Round Cell Liposarcoma.
Considering participating in a START clinical trial?
Study Summary
To evaluate ADP-A2M4 patients with synovial sarcoma and myxoid round cell liposarcoma (hla-a*02 & mage-a4 antigen positive) who have received prior chemotherapy.
To evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ADP-A2M4 SPEAR T-cells.
To evaluate genetically-engineered ADP-A2M4 in HLA-A*02 subjects with metastatic or inoperable (advanced) Synovial Sarcoma or Myxoid/Round Cell Liposarcoma (MRCLS) who have received prior chemotherapy and whose tumor expresses the MAGE-A4 tumor antigen.
To evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ADP-A2M4 in patients with advanced/metastatic SS or MRCLS who are HLA-A*02 positive and whose tumors express the MAGE-A4 protein.
To investigate the efficacy and safety of ADP-A2M4 in HLA-A*02 eligible and MAGE-A4 positive subjects with metastatic or inoperable (advanced) Synovial Sarcoma (Cohort 1 and Cohort 2) or MRCLS (Cohort 1).
To support the continued investigation of potential mechanisms of response and acquired resistance in SS and MRCLS patients, ongoing translational analyses, described in more detail below, are being performed.
Tumor biopsy sample analyses includes duplexed TCR RNAscope, anti-CD3 IHC analysis, and multiplex immunofluorescence for spatial analyses of T-cell infiltration in context with tumor microenvironment (TME) molecular profiling.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of afami-cel in pretreated pts with advanced/metastatic synovial sarcoma (Cohorts 1 and 2) or myxoid/round cell
liposarcoma (Cohort 1).
To report updated interim mOS data in pts with advanced synovial sarcoma in Cohort 1
To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of afami-cel. Afami-cel's engineered TCR T-cells target MAGE-A4+ tumors.
The primary efficacy analysis is for Cohort 1 only. Cohort 2 will strengthen the efficacy and safety database and will aid in descriptive sub-group analyses. Cohort 2 has an overall response rate nearly identical to Cohort 1 (data will be reported when follow-up is mature). Cohort 3 is now open to provide access to afami-cel ahead of planned commercialization.
The aim of this study was to further evaluate the efficacy of afami-cel for the treatment of patients with HLA-A*02 and MAGE-A4-expressing advanced synovial sarcoma or myxoid round cell liposarcoma.
