Combination Margetuximab, Retifanlimab, Tebotelimab, and Chemotherapy Phase 2/3 Trial in HER2+ Gastric/GEJ Cancer (MAHOGANY)

May 28, 2025 updated by: MacroGenics

A Phase 2/3 Trial to Evaluate Margetuximab in Combination With INCMGA00012 and Chemotherapy or MGD013 and Chemotherapy in Patients With Metastatic or Locally Advanced, Treatment-naïve, HER2-Positive Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer

This is a Phase 2/3, randomized, open-label study for the treatment of patients with HER2-positive Gastric cancer (GC) or Gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ) cancer conducted in two parts.

Part A is a single-arm cohort (Cohort A, 40 to 110 participants) will evaluate safety and efficacy of margetuximab plus retifanlimab.

Part B Part 1 has 4 arms (50 patients/arm). Participants will be randomized to margetuximab plus retifanlimab plus chemotherapy, margetuximab plus tebotelimab, plus chemotherapy, margetuximab plus chemotherapy, or trastuzumab plus chemotherapy.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

Time Frame: Throughout the study, an average of 11 months.
Evaluation of adverse events and serious adverse events (Cohort A)

Objective Response Rate (ORR) for Non-microsatellite Instability-high (Non-MSI-H) Participants (Cohort A) Using Investigator-assessed Radiology Reviews
Time Frame: Throughout the study, an average of 11 months.

Percent of non MSI-H participants with best overall response of complete response (CR) plus partial response (PR) per RECIST 1.1 (Cohorts A ) based on investigator assessment.

CR is defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions with no new lesions appearing PR is defined as >= to a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of target lesions, non-progression of non- target lesions, with no new lesions appearing.

CR + PR = ORR
