Oct. 17, 2024

23

In part A for the dose escalation part of the study (part 1), the majority of participants were male (71.4%), not Hispanic or Latino (92.3%) and either Asian or White (50.0% and 42.9%, respectively), with a mean (standard deviation) age of 58.6 (9.8) years (range 43 to 73 years). The majority of participants (71.4%) were between 18 and 64 years of age. The primary diagnoses for participants were colorectal adenocarcinoma (7 participants) and pancreatic adenocarcinoma (7 participants). In part B for part 1, approximately half of the participants were male (55.6%) and White (57.1%), and the majority were not Hispanic or Latino (87.5%), with a mean (standard deviation) age of 56.6 (9.5) years (range 44 to 77 years). The majority of participants (88.9%) were between 18 and 64 years of age. The primary diagnoses for participants were colorectal adenocarcinoma (5 participants) and pancreatic adenocarcinoma (4 participants).

Approximately 54 participants were planned to be enrolled in part 1, and approximately 139 participants were planned to be enrolled in the dose expansion part of the study (part 2). Due to the study being terminated early, the dose expansion part of the study was not performed. In part 1, a total of 31 participants signed informed consent, of which 8 were discontinued before being allocated to treatment. Of the remaining 23 participants, 14 participants were allocated to ASP2074 in part A and 9 participants were allocated to ASP2074 in part B. In part A, participants received ASP2074 at doses of 0.7 mg (n = 1), 2.2 mg (n = 1), 4 mg (n = 7), and 7 mg (n = 5). All 14 participants who received ASP2074 in part A discontinued study intervention. Progressive disease was the most frequent reason for discontinuing study intervention (8 [57.1%] participants). Overall, all participants reached the 30-day and 90-day safety follow-up; 6 (42.9%) participants completed the 30-day follow-up and 4 (28.6%) participants completed the 90-day follow-up. In part B, participants received ASP2074 at a run-in dose of 2.2 mg plus ASP2074 at doses of 4 mg (n = 4) and 7 mg (n = 5). All 9 participants who received ASP2074 in part B discontinued study intervention. Progressive disease was the most frequent reason for discontinuing study intervention (6 [66.7%] participants). Overall, all participants reached the 30-day and 90-day safety follow-up; 6 (66.7%) participants completed the 30-day follow-up and 2 (22.2%) participants completed the 90-day follow-up.

Part A Dose Escalation: o Three (30.0%) participants in the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) evaluable analysis set (DEAS) experienced 4 DLTs.The DLTs were diarrhoea, enterocolitis, hepatic function abnormal, and hypertension (each reported by 1 participant). o All 14 (100%) participants who received ASP2074 reported at least 1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE). The most common TEAE was diarrhoea (78.6%). o Attribution of TEAE relationship to study intervention was assessed by the investigator. Overall, all 14 (100%) participants had 1 or more TEAE considered by the investigator to be related to ASP2074. The most common study intervention-related TEAEs were cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and diarrhoea (64.3% each). o Eleven (78.6%) participants experienced a TEAE with maximum National Cancer Institute - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) Grade >/= 3. o There were 4 (28.6%) participants that had TEAEs leading to death. All 4 participants died due to malignant neoplasm progression. None of the deaths were considered by the investigator to be related to ASP2074. o Treatment-emergent serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported in 10 (71.4%) participants, and SAEs considered by the investigator to be related to ASP2074 were reported in 4 (28.6%) participants. The treatment-related SAEs were CRS (2 participants) and colitis, diarrhoea, enterocolitis, and hepatic function abnormal (each reported by 1 participant). o Two (14.3%) participants had TEAEs that resulted in permanent discontinuation of study intervention. TEAEs leading to discontinuation of study intervention considered by the investigator to be related to ASP2074 were reported in 1 (7.1%) participant. The related TEAEs leading to discontinuation were diarrhoea, nausea and decreased appetite. o Ten (71.4%) participants experienced immune-related TEAEs. Of these, 3 (21.4%) participants experienced 4 serious immune-related TEAEs: colitis, CRS, diarrhoea, and enterocolitis. o Two (14.3%) participants experienced infusion-related TEAEs. No infusion-related TEAEs were reported as serious. o There were no clinically meaningful findings in the clinical laboratory values, vital signs measurements, electrocardiogram (ECG) and physical examination assessments or other observations related to safety in this study. Part B Dose Escalation: o One (12.5%) participant in the DEAS experienced 3 DLTs. This participant was in the run-in 2.2 mg + 7 mg treatment group. The DLTs were suspected drug-induced liver injury, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) increased. o All 9 (100%) participants who received ASP2074 reported at least 1 TEAE. The most common TEAE was diarrhoea (88.9%). o Attribution of TEAE relationship to study intervention was assessed by the investigator. Overall, 8 (88.9%) participants had 1 or more TEAE considered by the investigator to be related to ASP2074. The most common study intervention-related TEAE was diarrhoea (66.7%). o Eight (88.9%) participants experienced a TEAE with maximum NCI-CTCAE Grade >/= 3. o There were 3 (33.3%) participants that had TEAEs leading to death. The TEAEs leading to death were malignant neoplasm progression (2 participants) and biliary sepsis. None of the deaths were considered by the investigator to be related to ASP2074. o Treatment-emergent SAEs were reported in 7 (77.8%) participants, and SAEs considered by the investigator to be related to ASP2074 were reported in 3 (33.3%) participants. The treatment-related SAEs were diarrhoea (2 participants) and colitis and suspected drug-induced liver injury (each reported by 1 participant). o One (11.1%) participant had a TEAE that resulted in permanent discontinuation of study intervention. This participant had suspected drug-induced liver injury which was considered by the investigator to be related to ASP2074. o Seven (77.8%) participants experienced immune-related TEAEs. Of these, 4 (44.4%) participants experienced 7 serious immune-related TEAEs: biliary sepsis, colitis, diarrhoea, encephalopathy, nausea, suspected drug-induced liver injury, and vomiting. The serious immune-related TEAE of biliary sepsis led to the death of the participant. o Three (33.3%) participants experienced infusion-related TEAEs. No infusion-related TEAEs were reported as serious. o There were no clinically meaningful findings in the clinical laboratory values, vital signs measurements, ECG and physical examination assessments, or other observations related to safety in this study.

Primary Endpoint: o See Adverse Events section. Secondary Endpoint: o No participants in the dose escalation part of the study had a best overall response of confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) 1.1. The objective response rate (ORR) was 0% (95% CI: 0, 30.8) in part A and 0% (95% CI: 0, 41.0) in part B. o Because no participants had confirmed CR or PR, duration of response (DOR) could not be analyzed. o In part A, 2 (20.0%) participants had confirmed stable disease (SD) using RECIST 1.1 (1 participant each in the 4 mg and 7 mg treatment groups); therefore, the disease control rate (DCR) (CR + PR + SD) was 20.0%. In part B, 4 (57.1%) participants had confirmed SD using RECIST 1.1 (2 participants each in the 2.2 mg run-in + 4 mg and the 2.2 mg run-in + 7 mg treatment groups); therefore, the DCR (CR + PR + SD) was 57.1%. o The same results were observed using Immunotherapy Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (iRECIST). o Serum CA19-9 data, in a limited number of participants with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, did not show any apparent decrease after treatment. o In part A, ASP2074 exposure (Cmax and area under the concentration-time curve [AUC]) appeared to be dose-proportional between dose levels from 0.7 to 7 mg after single dose administration. o In part A, the median terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) ranged from 2.5 to 6.2 days following single-dose administration of ASP2074 0.7 to 7 mg, and the median time of the maximum concentration (tmax) ranged from 0.09 to 0.17 days. o In part B, ASP2074 exposure seemed to be higher than that observed in part A at the same cohort dose level (e.g., part B versus part A at 4 mg and 7 mg), indicating the impact of run-in doses.

- Progressive disease was the most frequent reason for discontinuing study intervention. - ASP2074 exposure appeared to be dose-proportional between dose levels from 0.7 to 7 mg after single dose administration. - ASP2074 exposure seemed to be higher in cohorts with a run-in period, indicating the impact of run-in doses. - The sponsor decided to terminate study because an efficacious dose was not reached and ASP2074 was generally not well tolerated at doses up to 7 mg. Part 2 was not performed.
