A33 is a surface differentiation antigen on normal colonic and small bowel epithelium that is uniformly expressed in 95% of all colorectal cancers (CRCs). A33-bound monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) stay bound for long periods on colorectal tumors whereas they are more rapidly cleared from the normal intestinal epithelial cells. A33 is not secreted or shed into the blood. Humanized mAbs directed against A33 have shown promise in CRC clinical trials but immunogenicity has been a primary concern. KRN330, the fully human mAb against A33, was developed to preserve activity and reduce immunogenicity. A Phase I study of KRN330 monotherapy showed over 1 year of stable disease in 2 patients with refractory metastatic CRC (mCRC). Common drug-related side effects were nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting; 3.0 mg/kg of KRN330 was the recommended Phase II dose. We report results of the Phase I portion of a Phase I/II trial of KRN330 in combination with irinotecan in patients with mCRC. Results Results Key Eligibility Criteria: Key Eligibility Criteria: ● Diagnosis of mCRC with measurable disease. ● Recurrence or PD despite prior treatment with 1FOLFOX/CapOx ± bevacizumab regimen but not more than 3 prior chemotherapy or biologic regimens for mCRC, not a candidate for a surgical cure. ● Adequate: bone marrow, hematologic, renal, and hepatic function. ● 3 patients who received 1.0 mg/kg of KRN330 Q2W and irinotecan treatment developed dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), which included Grade 4 febrile neutropenia and Grade 3 colitis, prolonged Grade 3 diarrhea, and, Grade 4 neutropenia with prolonged Grade 3 diarrhea. ● KRN330 was de-escalated to 0.5 mg/kg Q2W and 0.5 mg/kg QW. In the Q2W cohort, 1 pt had a DLT of Grade 3 colitis. None of the patients in the QW cohort experienced DLT. ● The most common Grade 3/4 toxicities included diarrhea (26%), abdominal pain (16%), leukopenia (16%), and febrile neutropenia (16%). ● No deaths were reported during the study or within 30 days after the last dose of study drug.

A33 is a surface differentiation antigen on normal colonic and small bowel epithelium that is uniformly expressed in 95% of all colorectal cancers (CRCs). A33-bound monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) stay bound for long periods on colorectal tumors whereas they are more rapidly cleared from the normal intestinal epithelial cells. A33 is not secreted or shed into the blood. Humanized mAbs directed against A33 have shown promise in CRC clinical trials but immunogenicity has been a primary concern. KRN330, the fully human mAb against A33, was developed to preserve activity and reduce immunogenicity. A Phase I study of KRN330 monotherapy showed over 1 year of stable disease in 2 patients with refractory metastatic CRC (mCRC). Common drug-related side effects were nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting; 3.0 mg/kg of KRN330 was the recommended Phase II dose. We report results of the Phase I portion of a Phase I/II trial of KRN330 in combination with irinotecan in patients with mCRC.
