A Phase I Study of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Properties of APG-1387 as A Single Agent or in Combination With Systemic Anti-Cancer Agents in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Hematologic Malignancies

APG-1387 is a potent, bivalent small-molecule IAP antagonist. APG-1387 has shown strong dose-
and schedule-dependent antitumor activities in multiple human cancer xenograft models,
APG-1387 also demonstrates its synergistic effect in combination with immune checkpoint
inhibitor anti-PD-1 antibody, and such a combinatory effect was further enhanced by
chemotherapeutic agent. A total of 35 patients with advanced solid tumors or lymphomas have
been treated with APG-1387 in two Phase I dose-escalation studies in Australia and in China
Ten dose levels have been tested ranging from 0.3 mg to 45 mg in these 2 studies. Based on
the preliminary results, APG-1387 is well-tolerated at the dose levels evaluated to date.
APG-1387 is intended for the treatment of patients with advanced solid tumors and hematologic
malignancies. After establishing the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities
(DLTs), and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), several Ib /II studies will be implemented
accordingly to further access the antitumor effects of APG-1387 in combination with either
pembrolizumab or the chemotherapeutic agents.
