BACKGROUND: Dysbiosis of gut microbiome leads to resistance to immunotherapy in various advanced solid tumors. CJRB-101 is a live biotherapeutic product consisting of a novel strain belonging to the species Leuconostoc mesenteroides. To modulate the tumor microenvironment, CJRB-101 was combined with pembrolizumab.
METHODS: Preclinical efficacy and mechanistic studies were performed using humanized non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. This is a multicenter, first-in-human, two-part, phase I, open-label study of CJRB-101 (1×1011 or 4×1011 colony forming unit (CFU)/day) plus pembrolizumab (200 mg every three weeks (Q3W)) in advanced NSCLC, melanoma, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in both immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-naive and ICI-refractory settings. The primary endpoint was to assess the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), adverse events, and preliminary activity of the combination treatment. Exploratory endpoints included stool metagenomics analysis and pharmacodynamics parameters.
RESULTS: In four PDX models, CJRB-101 with pembrolizumab demonstrated enhanced antitumor efficacy, showing a tumor growth inhibition (TGI) of 77.3% in the CJRB-101 monotherapy group and 61.9% in the combination group, which was significantly improved compared with pembrolizumab alone. A distinct M2-to-M1 repolarization was observed and validated in vitro. Notably, increased activation of cytotoxic T cells was observed, suggesting an immune-mediated antitumor mechanism of CJRB-101. A total of 42 patients were enrolled in the low-dose cohort (one capsule once a day; n=6) and high-dose cohort (two capsules two times a day, n=36). Metastatic NSCLC accounted for 86% (n=36) and 67% (n=28) of the patients were refractory to ICIs. None of the patients experienced DLT. In ICI-naïve NSCLC (n=12) with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) >50%, the overall response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 58% and 75%, respectively. The ORR was 5% and DCR was 41% in the ICI-refractory NSCLC (n=22) with an ORR of 5% and DCR of 41%. After a median follow-up of 15.6 months and 8.9 months for ICI-naïve and ICI-refractory NSCLC, the median progression-free survival was 9 months (95% CI 5.6 to not reached) and 1.8 months (95% CI 1.6 to 4.3), respectively. CJRB-101 plus pembrolizumab was well-tolerated, and none of the patients experienced grade >3 treatment-related adverse events.
CONCLUSIONS: Early clinical data show encouraging antitumor response of CJRB-101 plus pembrolizumab in ICI-naïve metastatic NSCLC with PD-L1 >50%.
TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT05877430.
