Marseilles, France, December 11, 2012
Innate Pharma SA (the "Company" - Euronext Paris: FR0010331421 – IPH), the innate immunity company developing first-in-class drugs for cancer and inflammatory diseases, updates on four early clinical trials with IPH2101 (hybridoma anti-KIR antibody) in Multiple Myeloma ("MM").
Interim data of Phase I trial KIRIMID presented at ASH: a poster describing interim data from the Phase I study KIRIMID, investigating the safety and tolerability of the combination of IPH2101 with lenalidomide in patients with relapsed MM following one or two lines of prior therapy was presented at the 2012 American Society of Hematology ("ASH") meeting by Don Benson, MD, PhD (Division of Hematology/ Oncology, Ohio State Cancer Center, Columbus, OH). The poster is available on Innate Pharma's website: http://www.innatepharma.com/sites/default/files/ash_2012_antikir_and_lena_phase_1_poster.pdf.
Publication of Phase I results of IPH2101 in MM in Blood: the results of the Phase I trial of IPH2101 in 32 patients with relapsed/refractory MM were published online in the journal Blood. Patients were treated with IPH2101 for up to 4 cycles without achieving dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) or reaching maximal tolerated dose (MTD). Analysis of PK data demonstrated a clear relationship between dose and drug concentration.
Innate Pharma also reports the results of the Phase IIa trials REMYKIR and KIRMONO. IPH2101, tested as a single agent in patients with stable measurable MM after induction therapy (REMYKIR study) and in patients with previously untreated smoldering myeloma (KIRMONO study), did not show significant reductions in M-protein levels, the primary efficacy endpoint of the studies. The safety profile of IPH2101 was satisfactory.
Marcel Rozencweig, Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of Innate Pharma, said: "These published data were obtained with our first generation anti-KIR antibody. IPH2102/BMS-986015 is a second generation anti-KIR antibody that has been selected for further development and patients are now being treated with IPH2102 in the recently announced Phase II single-agent trial in Acute Myeloid Leukemia and the Phase I combination trial with the Anti-PD-1 antibody nivolumab in solid tumors."
IPH2101 is an anti-KIR monoclonal antibody, produced in hybridoma cell lines, which has been developed and tested in an early development plan for the IPH21 program.
