ResumoSummary In this open‐label, multicentre, phase 1 study a fully human anti‐ CD 40 antagonist monoclonal antibody, lucatumumab, was evaluated in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma ( MM ). The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose ( MTD ) based on dose‐limiting toxicities ( DLT s). Secondary objectives included safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and antimyeloma activity. Twenty‐eight patients, enrolled using a standard ‘3 + 3’ dose escalation, received one or two ( n = 3) cycles of lucatumumab 1·0, 3·0, 4·5 or 6·0 mg/kg once weekly for 4 weeks. Common lucatumumab‐related adverse events were reversible, mild‐to‐moderate infusion reactions. Severe adverse events were anaemia, chills, hypercalcaemia and pyrexia (7% each). DLT s included grade 4 thrombocytopenia, grade 3 increased alanine aminotransferase and grade 4 increased lipase ( n = 1 each). The MTD was 4·5 mg/kg. At doses ≥3·0 mg/kg, sustained receptor occupancy (≥87%), observed throughout weekly infusions up to 5 weeks after the last infusion, correlated with an estimated half‐life of 4–19 d. Twelve patients (43%) had stable disease, and one patient (4%) maintained a partial response for ≥8 months. These findings indicate that single‐agent lucatumumab was well tolerated up to 4·5 mg/kg with modest clinical activity in relapsed/refractory MM , warranting further study as a combination therapy.
