Insights

The Phase 1 expansion data for IDE397 shows remarkable clinical efficacy in treating MTAP-deletion cancers, with a ~33% overall response rate across 27 evaluable patients. The drug demonstrated particularly strong results in urothelial cancer (40% confirmed ORR) and squamous NSCLC (~38% confirmed ORR). Key highlights include a ~93% disease control rate and ~81% molecular response rate through ctDNA reduction.

The drug's safety profile is notably favorable, with only 18% grade 3 or higher drug-related adverse events and no serious adverse events at the 30mg daily dose. This positions IDE397 well for potential combination therapies and long-term treatment regimens. The durability data, while still maturing, shows promising trends with median duration of treatment exceeding 6.2 months.

This data represents a significant market opportunity, targeting an estimated 48,000 annual MTAP-deletion patients in the U.S. across urothelial cancer and NSCLC alone. With no FDA-approved therapies specifically for MTAP-deletion tumors, IDE397 could capture substantial market share as a first-in-class treatment. The expansion potential into additional cancer types like pancreatic (20%+ MTAP-deletion rate, ~14,000 U.S. patients annually), gastric and head and neck cancers further amplifies the commercial opportunity.

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Oct. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- IDEAYA Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: IDYA), a precision medicine oncology company committed to the discovery and development of targeted therapeutics, announces Phase 1 expansion data for IDE397 in methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP)-deletion urothelial cancer (UC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients as a late breaker abstract (LBA) oral presentation at the 36th edition of the EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium (ENA 2024) in Barcelona, Spain. In addition, IDEAYA had additional poster presentations at ENA 2024 highlighting preclinical data for the MAT2A and PARG programs. IDE397 is a potent and selective potential first-in-class methionine adenosyltransferase 2 alpha (MAT2A) inhibitor in Phase 2 clinical trials for the treatment of MTAP-deletion solid tumors. 

"We are excited by the clinical efficacy and safety profile observed with the potential first-in-class MAT2A inhibitor IDE397 at the 30mg once-a-day RP2D, including multiple confirmed responses observed as a monotherapy agent in non-small cell lung cancer and urothelial cancer patients with MTAP-deletion. In addition, at the 30mg once-a-day expansion dose, we observed a manageable safety profile with no drug-related serious adverse events or discontinuations. These data support potential combination development," said Dr. Benjamin Herzberg, M.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine, Columbia University. 

"The clinical data update from the late breaker oral presentation at ENA 2024 provides further clinical proof-of-concept for IDE397 in the setting of MTAP-deletion urothelial cancer and non-small cell lung cancer to deliver a high disease control rate and confirmed RECIST responses, with an overall manageable adverse event profile," said Darrin M. Beaupre, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer, IDEAYA Biosciences.

"IDE397 is rapidly advancing as a monotherapy agent in MTAP-deletion urothelial cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. Next, we are well positioned to advance our broad and potential first-in-class IDE397 rational combination strategy, including the targeted expansion in the fourth quarter with Trodelvy® in urothelial cancer, the ongoing combination with AMG 193 with targeted expansion in NSCLC, combinations with IDEAYA's internal MTAP-deletion pipeline that includes a targeted development candidate by year-end, among others," said Yujiro S. Hata, President and Chief Executive Officer, IDEAYA Biosciences.

There are currently no FDA-approved therapies for patients with MTAP-deletion solid tumors, highlighting the unmet medical need. The priority MTAP-deletion solid tumor types for the IDE397 Phase 1/2 monotherapy program are UC and NSCLC. MTAP-deletion has been reported at over 15% in NSCLC and over 25% in UC, based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. We estimate that the annual incidence of MTAP-deletion in the U.S. in UC and NSCLC is approximately 48,000 patients, based on the 2024 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. In addition, there are several potential expansion MTAP-deletion solid tumor types that are also being considered for monotherapy and combination development, including pancreatic, gastric, esophageal, and head and neck cancer, among others. Based on the TCGA database, MTAP-deletion in pancreatic cancer has been reported in more than 20% of patients, representing a U.S. annual incidence of approximately 14,000 patients.

ENA 2024 Clinical Data Update – IDE397 Phase 2 Expansion in Subjects with MTAP-Deletion UC and NSCLC
The company observed encouraging clinical activity at the 30 mg once-a-day (QD) Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) in its Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating its potential first-in-class MAT2A inhibitor IDE397 in heavily pre-treated MTAP-deletion UC and NSCLC patients. The patients evaluated had a median of two (2) to three (3) prior lines-of-therapy, ranging from one (1) to seven (7). The reported Phase 1 clinical expansion data are based on twenty-seven (27) evaluable MTAP-deletion patients, including ten (10) UC, nine (9) adenocarcinoma NSCLC, and eight (8) squamous (sq) NSCLC patients at the expansion dose of 30 mg QD of IDE397. 

The clinical efficacy and tolerability data are preliminary and based on investigator review from an unlocked database as of the data analysis cutoff date of August 22, 2024. 

The clinical data update in the twenty-seven (27) evaluable patients by RECIST 1.1 include:

  • ~33% Overall Response Rate (ORR). One (1) complete response (CR) and eight (8) partial responses (PRs) by RECIST 1.1 evaluation out of twenty-seven (27) evaluable patients. Nine (9) of nine (9) responses have been confirmed by RECIST 1.1, including four (4) UC patients, of which one was a CR, three (3) squamous NSCLC patients, and two (2) adenocarcinoma NSCLC patients. Two patients confirmed after the data cutoff date. In the earlier reported July 8, 2024, IDE397 webcast program update, five (5) confirmed responses were reported out of eighteen (18) evaluable patients. There were zero (0) non-evaluable patients reported as of the data analysis.
  • Confirmed ORR% by RECIST 1.1 by Solid Tumor Type: MTAP-deletion UC = 40% (4 of 10) confirmed ORR%; MTAP-deletion squamous NSCLC = ~38% (3 of 8) confirmed ORR%; MTAP-deletion adenocarcinoma NSCLC = ~22% (2 of 9) confirmed ORR%
  • Multiple confirmed partial responses by RECIST 1.1 harbor genetic co-alterations, including MTAP-deletion and KRAS G12D mutation in NSCLC, and MTAP-deletion and FGFR-TACC3 fusion in UC
  • ~93% Disease Control Rate (DCR). One (1) CR, eight (8) PRs, and sixteen (16) stable disease (SD) by RECIST 1.1 evaluation out of twenty-seven (27) evaluable patients
  • Preliminary durability assessment: Fifteen (15) of twenty-seven (27) patients still on treatment. Seven (7) of nine (9) RECIST 1.1 responses remain on treatment. Median duration of treatment (DOT) has not been reached and is greater than 6.2 months and median time to response (TTR) is ~2.7 months. The median duration of response and median progression free survival data is still immature. Three (3) UC patients on treatment greater than 250 days, four (4) squamous NSCLC patients on treatment greater than 200 days, and three (3) adenocarcinoma NSCLC patients on treatment greater than 200 days
  • ~81% ctDNA Molecular Response Rate (MRR). Seventeen (17) of twenty (21) patients with 50% or greater ctDNA reduction, and ~33% (7 of 21) with deep 90% or greater ctDNA reduction. All MRs (17 of 17) were rapid occurring at the first ctDNA sample analysis. There were several quality control failures of patient samples that led to unavailability for MR analysis
  • Favorable adverse event (AE) profile. Approximately 18% grade 3 or higher drug-related AEs and no drug-related serious adverse events (SAEs) observed at the IDE397 30mg once-a-day expansion dose. No drug-related AEs leading to discontinuations were observed. We anticipate that the favorable AE profile and dosing convenience of a 30 mg once-a-day tablet has the potential to enable long-term dosing and combination development, including with MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitors and topoisomerase payload antibody drug conjugates (ADCs)
