About IPH4502

IPH4502 is a novel and differentiated topoisomerase I inhibitor Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) conjugated to exatecan targeting Nectin-4, a cell adhesion molecule that is overexpressed in several types of solid tumors, such as urothelial carcinoma, breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer or gastro-intestinal tract cancer.

IPH4502 is currently investigated in a Phase 1 trial in advanced solid tumors. The Phase 1 trial includes a dose escalation part 1 and a dose optimization part 2 and will assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of IPH4502 in different solid tumors known to express Nectin-4, including but not limited to urothelial carcinoma, non-small cell lung, breast, ovarian, gastric, esophageal, and colorectal cancers. The study plans to enroll approximately 105 patients.

In preclinical models, IPH4502 demonstrates strong bystander killing effect, and efficient internalization, enabling a potent anti-tumor activity in models with various Nectin-4 expression levels. Additionally, IPH4502 shows efficacy in models resistant to MMAE-ADC. These results support its potential for development beyond UC and in cancer patients treated with MMAE-based ADCs.
