8:55 am Chairperson’s Opening Remarks
Advancing ADCs in Combination – Showcasing Ground Breaking Combination Studies Involving Best-in Class ADCs
9:00 am Evaluating the Importance of Independent Action in ADC Combination Trials
Synopsis
- Highlighting how immuno oncology drugs are failing at an unprecedented rate -perhaps because too much reliance has been placed on preclinical thinking about synergy
- Based on the mathematics of independent action, synergy has not been seen in any immune oncology registration trials to date
- To progress the development of combinations of ADC and PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitors the field must adapt more rigorous mathematic thinking about combination results
9:30 am ADC Therapeutic Window Enhancement Based on the AJICAP Chemical Site-Specific Conjugation Platform
Synopsis
- Examining how site-specific technologies are being employed in many of the next-generation ADCs due to enhancement of clinically relevant biological properties observed in various preclinical studies
- Demonstrating a novel method of affinity peptide mediated regiodivergent antibody functionalization that enables the synthesis of ADCs from native IgGs in a tunable and atom-precise manner
- Highlighting how both thiol-based and azide-based site-specific ADCs produced by “AJICAP” technology demonstrated an expansion of their therapeutic index compared with stochastic technology
10:00 am Polatuzumab Vedotin: Late Stage Clinical Development to Approval
Synopsis
- Providing an overview of the late stage clinical development of polatuzumab vedotin
- Discussing rational combination strategy in R/R DLBCL leading to approval of polatuzumab vedotin + BR
- Sharing the rational combination strategy in 1L DLBCL leading to positive results of the Phase III POLARIX with polatuzumab vedotin + R-CHP
10:30 am Protoxins: The Next Generation of Toxins for Antibody-Drug Conjugates
Synopsis
- Examining reversible and non-reversible Protoxins
- Reviewing Protoxins of PBD dimers, maytansine, and MMAE
- Demonstrating improved stability of Protoxin-ADCs
10:45 am Technology Slam & Morning Refreshments
1:00 pm Lunch
3:00 pm Afternoon Break
Showcasing the Promise of ADCs Targeting Folate Receptor α
3:30 pm Sharing Results from SORAYA: A Phase III Trial of Mirvetuximab soravtansine in Platinum Resistant, FRα-high Ovarian Cancer
Synopsis
- Discussing efficacy and safety of MIRV in FR-alpha high, platinum resistant ovarian cancer
- Outlining the evolution of the companion diagnostics and impacts on trials
- Sharing information about on-going trials and next steps
4:00 pm Providing an Overview of How Sutro Biopharma Are Targeting Folate Receptor α
Synopsis
- Discussing STRO-002 Phase 1 Clinical Study for patients with Advanced Ovarian Cancer as well as other indications
- Outlining how Sutro Biopharma are targeting FOLR-alpha
4:30 pm Reviewing Preliminary Results from a First-in-Human Trial with MORAb-202
Synopsis
- Providing a background on MORAb-202
- Sharing preliminary safety and efficacy of MORAb-202 in first-in-human studies
- Detailing information on pharmacokinetics of MORAb-202
5:00 pm Folate Receptor Alpha Targeted Topiosomerase 1 CDC For Platinum Resistant Ovarian Cancer
Synopsis
- Overviewing novel targeted CDot Conjugates for the treatment of Folate Receptor Alpha over-expressing tumors
- Reviewing how CDC multivalent tumor targeting and high payload loading allows for the more effective killing of tumors with lower target antigen expression
- Exploring how Elucida’s CDC can be expanded into other FR+/Topo1 responsive indications
5:30 pm End of Scientific Program Day Two
