1 DRTUMUMB, a CD38 Monoclonal ntibody Study in dvanced Multiple Myeloma an Open-Label, Dose Escalation Followed by Open-Label Extension in a Single-rm Phase I/II Study bstract #S576 Henk Lokhorst, Torben Plesner, Peter Gimsing, Hareth Nahi, Steen Lisby, Paul Richardson University Medical Center Utrecht, Netherlands; Vejle Hospital, Denmark; Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark; Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden; Genmab /S, Copenhagen, Denmark; Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, M, US

2 Disclosures Genmab: dvisory Board, research support Johnson & Johnson: dvisory Board Mundipharma: dvisory Board Celgene: Research support

3 Human CD38 mb with Broad-Spectrum Killing ctivity Human IgG1k monoclonal antibody Broad spectrum mechanisms of action including CDC, DCC, DCP, apoptosis induction and inhibition of enzymatic activity In development for multiple myeloma Here we present data from the dose-escalation (part 1) of the FIH study in patients with relapsed or relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma

4 Objectives Primary Establishment of the safety profile of daratumumab Secondary Daratumumab: GEN501 Phase I/II Study of Monotherapy in Relapsed or Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma To establish the pharmacokinetic profile of daratumumab Evaluation of the efficacy of daratumumab according to International Myeloma Workshop Consensus Panel 1, Blood 2011;117: (IMWG) Evaluation of the immunogenicity of daratumumab

5 Main Inclusion Criteria Patients with advanced Multiple Myeloma requiring systemic therapy Patients with relapsed or relapsed and refractory disease with at least 2 prior lines of therapy and without further established treatment options Patients with ECOG performance status 0-2 Patients having a life expectancy >3 months

6 Trial Design PRT 1 Doseescalation cohorts Open label, weekly i.v. infusion, 8 weeks Dose-escalation: 3+3 scheme mg/kg PRT 2 Expansion cohorts Ongoing Several cohorts and dose schedules are being tested - start with pre-dose at 10% of the full dose, max 10 mg - three weeks delay after first full dose - governed by independent data monitoring committee

14 Progression-Free Survival

15 Conclusion 1/2 Daratumumab has shown a favorable safety profile as monotherapy in relapsed or relapsed and refractory Multiple Myeloma patients In part 1, where 15 of 32 (47%) heavily pre-treated evaluable Multiple Myeloma patients received 8 weeks of daratumumab as monotherapy in doses up to 24 mg/kg, a reduction in paraprotein was observed In 10 of these 32 patients (31%), this reduction qualified to a clinical response: 5 patients achieving PR (15.5%) 5 patients achieving MR (15.5%) In 8 of 12 patients (67%) at doses 4 mg/kg and above achieved a clinical response: 5 patients achieving PR (42%) 3 patients achieving MR (25%)

16 Conclusion 2/2 Biochemical response was accompanied by clearance of myeloma cells from the bone marrow t higher dose levels, observed plasma concentrations are close to those predicted Overall increased daratumumab exposure correlated with longer progression free survival Further studies: We are currently exploring an 8 mg/kg weekly schedule but will also explore other doses and different schedules
