Scientific title

A 3-Arm, Randomized, Blinded, Active-Controlled, Phase II Study of RO7121661, a PD1-TIM3 Bispecific Antibody and RO7247669, a PD1-LAG3 Bispecific Antibody, Compared With Nivolumab in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Esophagus

Summary

This is a Phase II, randomized, blinded, active-controlled, global, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lomvastomig and tobemstomig, compared with nivolumab, in patients with advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (ESCC) refractory or intolerant to fluoropyrimidine- or taxane- and platinum-based regimen. Following approval of the protocol amendment version 3, recruitment into the lomvastomig arm has been stopped. The decision to stop recruitment for lomvastomig was based on strategic considerations and not based on emerging safety and/or efficacy data. The benefit/risk assessment for lomvastomig remains unchanged. The study was planned to enroll participants randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive lomvastomig, tobemstomig, or nivolumab. With version 3 of the protocol, recruitment into the lomvastomig arm has stopped, and moving forward, participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either tobemstomig or nivolumab.

Advanced or metastatic, histologically confirmed esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (ESCC)Patients who have previously received 1 line of treatment with either a fluoropyrimidine- and platinum- or a taxane- and platinum-based regimen in non-curative intention prior to randomization; or patients who received treatment with a fluoropyrimidine-/taxane- and platinum-based regimen in curative intention and had recurrence or progression within 24 weeks after the last dose of the treatment Radiologically measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1. Previously irradiated lesions should not be counted as target lesions unless clearly progressed after the radiotherapy Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status 0-1 A life expectancy of at least (≥)12 weeks Tissue samples must be provided for analysis of anti-programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) tumor positivity Adverse events from any prior radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or surgical procedure must have resolved to Grade ≤1, except alopecia (any grade), vitiligo, endocrinopathy managed with replacement therapy, and Grade 2 peripheral neuropathy Adequate cardiovascular, hematological, liver, and renal function Serum albumin ≥25 grams per liter (g/L), For participants not receiving therapeutic anticoagulation: prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time ≤1.5 times (×) the upper limit of normal (ULN); for participants receiving therapeutic anticoagulation: stable anticoagulant regimen A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP), or a WOCBP who agrees to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive methods during the treatment period and for at least 5 months after the final dose of study drug and have a negative pregnancy test (blood) within the 7 days prior to randomization. A male participant must remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive measures such as a condom plus an additional contraceptive method and refrain from donating sperm during the treatment period and for at least 5 months after the final dose of study drug
