A study examining the safety of AGS-22M6E administered as monotherapy therapy in subjects with malignant solid tumors that express Nectin-4.

AGS-22M6E is a fully human monoclonal antibody conjugated to a cytotoxic agent monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) targeting Nectin-4 (Agensys code name AGS-22). AGS-22M6E will be administered at mg/kg doses based on the subjects weight at baseline and doses will not change unless the subjects weight changes by ≥ 10% from their baseline weight or the AGS-22M6E Dosage Assessment criteria is met.

Subjects will be prescreened for Nectin-4 expression prior to undergoing screening procedures for the main study. Subjects with tumors positive for Nectin-4 expression may be screened for eligibility into the main study. The dose escalation period is estimated to take between 12 and 18 months depending on whether 3 or 6 subjects are enrolled in a given dose cohort, and the availability of consenting subjects.

Subjects will be treated in the dose escalation phase of the study until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended dose for expansion (RDE) has been determined by the data review team. After the RDE has been determined, all newly identified subjects will be enrolled into 1 of 3 expansion cohorts. There will be 3 expansion cohorts, each targeting a specific cancer (i.e., Breast, Bladder and Lung plus other solid tumor cancers). All subjects will receive AGS-22M6E at the RDE until disease progression, intolerability of AGS-22M6E or consent withdrawal.

A disease assessment will be performed by the investigator at Week 8 (± 14 days). Subjects without evidence of disease progression may continue to receive treatment until disease progression or intolerability.

Inclusion Criteria: (For Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion)

• Subjects must have a tumor positive for Nectin-4 expression (as measured by central laboratory using primary or metastatic tumor tissue
• Histologically confirmed malignant solid tumors (excluding sarcoma) that have failed at least one cytotoxic therapy for metastatic disease or for which no life prolonging treatment exists

• Measurable disease according to RECIST criteria (version 1.1) (Eisenhauer, et. al.) defined as tumor lesions that are accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter in the plane of measurement is to be recorded) with a minimum size of:

  • 10mm by CT scan (CT scan slice thickness no greater than 5mm
  • 10 mm caliper measurement by clinical exam (lesions which cannot be accurately measured with calipers should be recorded as nonmeasurable
  • 20 mm by chest X-ray
