Safety and Efficacy of Zimberelimab (AB122) in Combination With Domvanalimab (AB154) and Etrumadenant (AB928) in Patients With Previously Treated Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Zimberelimab (AB122) in Combination With Domvanalimab (AB154) and Etrumadenant (AB928) in Patients With Previously Treated Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Since anti-PD1, anti-TIGIT, and A2R antagonists have complementary mechanisms of action, and the latter two have shown synergism in combination with antibodies against PD-1, othis study aims to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of the triplet combination of zimberelimab, domvanalimab, and etrumadenant in patients with non-small cell lung cancer previously treated with immune checkpoint blockade therapy.

  • Oral treatment with strong inhibitors of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates (e.g., itraconazole, quinidine, verapamil, dronedarone, ranolazine) or P-gp with a narrow therapeutic window, administered orally (e.g., digoxin) within 4 weeks or 5 drug-elimination half-lives of the drug (whichever is longer) prior to initiation of study treatment.
  • Treatment with known strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampin, phenytoin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, and St. John's Wort) or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., clarithromycin, grapefruit juice, itraconazole, ketoconazole, posaconazole, telithromycin, and voriconazole) within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives of the drug (whichever is longer) prior to initiation of study treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Progression-free survival (PFS)	Progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the duration of time from the start date of study treatment to the date of earliest progression or death, whichever occurs first.

Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level.; Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.; Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.	Through completion of treatment (estimated to be 9 months)
Disease control rate (DCR)	Disease control rate (DCR), defined as the proportion of patients achieving CR, PR, or SD measured according to RECIST 1.1.; Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level.; Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.; Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.	Through completion of treatment (estimated to be 9 months)
Overall survival (OS)	- Overall survival (OS), defined as the duration of time from the start date of study treatment to death from any cause. Patients who are alive by the data cutoff date will be censored at the last follow up date.	Through completion of follow-up (estimated to be 5 years)
Number of study treatment related adverse events	- Adverse events will be assessed using CTCAE v5.0 criteria	From start of treatment through 30 days after last treatment or start of next treatment (estimated to be 10 months)
