Lessons and Take Home Messages • Key points – IMO-2125 results in maturation of intratumoral mDC1 in injected lesion within 24h of drug administration – Increased immune infiltration measured in distant lesions of responding patients at week 8 – Safety is acceptable through 3 dosing cohorts; MTD not yet reached – Preliminary clinical activity with IMO-2125 + ipilimumab in this refractory population is encouraging • Potential impact on the field – Combining intra-tumoral DC activation to enhance T cell priming with checkpoint blockade may be key in IO refractory patient population – A local tumor can be used as a vaccine itself and injection of one lesion results in regression of distant lesions that may not be easily accessible • Lessons learned – On-treatment biopsy timing is critical!!
