Alpine Immune Sciences Reports the US FDA's Clinical Hold on (NEON-2) Trial of Davoceticept (ALPN-202) for Advanced Malignancies

Shots:

  • The US FDA has placed a partial clinical hold on the (NEON-2) trial to evaluate davoceticept + pembrolizumab in adults with advanced malignancies
  • The US FDA’s decision is based on Alpine’s report of a grade 5 serious AEs (patient death) in the (NEON-2) trial associated with cardiogenic shock. Additionally, enrolled patients may continue to receive davoceticept & pembrolizumab while no additional patients may be enrolled until the partial clinical hold is resolved
  • The escalation and initiation of expansion cohorts of P-I (NEON-1) are expected to be complete in H1’22. In preclinical studies, davoceticept showed superior efficacy in tumor models over checkpoint inhibition alone
