QUILT 3.032 Study Details

The ongoing phase 2/3 open-label multicenter registrational study QUILT 3.032 (NCT03022825) is evaluating the safety and efficacy of the investigational interleukin-15 superagonist N-803 (also known as Anktiva and nogapendekin alfa inbakicept, NAI) in combination with a standard therapy for NMIBC, bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), in patients who failed or in whom cancer returned after BCG monotherapy, and thus were diagnosed as BCG-unresponsive. The study comprises three cohorts, with cohort A enrolling patients with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without Ta/T1 disease and cohort B enrolling patients with high grade Ta/T1 papillary disease. Both cohorts A and B received combination N-803 plus BCG therapy. Cohort C patients, with CIS +/- Ta/T1 disease received N-803 monotherapy.

• The primary end point is the incidence of CR at the 3- or 6-month assessment visit for cohorts A and C, and the disease-free survival (DFS) rate at 12 months for cohort B.
• Durability, cystectomy avoidance, progression-free survival, disease-specific survival (DSS), and overall survival are secondary end points for cohort A.
• Cohort C was discontinued due to a low response rate with N-803 monotherapy, per study design.
• The FDA has accepted for review ImmunityBio’s resubmission of its biologics license application (BLA) for N-803 plus BCG for the treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC CIS with or without Ta or T1 disease, and has set a user fee goal date (PDUFA date) of April 23, 2024.

Bladder cancer is the 10^th most-commonly diagnosed cancer, with approximately 80% of newly diagnosed cases being NMIBC. Intravesical (directly to the bladder) instillation of BCG after removal of cancer tissue from the lining of the bladder (transurethral resection of the bladder tumor; TURBT) is Standard-of-Care (SoC) for intermediate and high-risk NMIBC patients, but up to 40% of patients will fail BCG therapy and ~50% will relapse after an initial response and given a diagnosis of being BCG-unresponsive. Therapies approved by the FDA for this indication include pembrolizumab, nadofaragene, combined gemcitabine and docetaxel, and valrubicin. Radical cystectomy – surgical removal of the bladder - is also an option for these patients. QUILT 3.032 is being conducted to address the need for a safe, effective therapeutic option for BCG-unresponsive NMIBC patients that provides an opportunity for avoidance of radical cystectomy.
