Clinical Data Presentation summary
3 Jul, 2025Mechanism and design of IMA401
IMA401 is a next-generation bispecific TCER® molecule targeting MAGEA4/8 peptides presented by HLA-A*02, designed for high potency and specificity with minimized cytokine release and optimized dosing schedules.
The TCER® format demonstrates superior potency and specificity compared to alternative TCR bispecific designs, validated across different TCRs and T cell recruiting antibodies.
MAGEA4/8 target is presented at over fivefold higher density than commonly used MAGEA4 peptides, with significant prevalence in several solid tumor types.
Clinical trial design and patient characteristics
Phase 1a dose escalation basket trial enrolled 35 heavily pre-treated patients with recurrent/refractory solid tumors, all HLA-A*02:01 and MAGEA4/8-positive.
Dose escalation used adaptive BLRM model, with ongoing escalation and no maximum tolerated dose (MTD) reached as of data cut-off.
Median age was 62–64 years, median prior systemic treatments was 3–4, and most patients had multiple metastatic sites.
Safety and tolerability
Most frequent treatment-related adverse events were transient lymphopenia (34%), mild to moderate cytokine release syndrome (CRS, 31%), and neutropenia (23%).
No grade ≥3 CRS observed; neutropenia resolved in all but one case, with one possibly related death due to pneumonia and neutropenia.
Overall tolerability profile was manageable, supporting continued dose escalation.
