Prelude Therapeutics Presents New Data from SMARCA Degrader Portfolio at the 36th EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium
-Interim data from ongoing trial of PRT3789 showed additional clinical activity at higher doses in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
-First safety data presented from combination study of PRT3789 and docetaxel demonstrated an acceptable safety profile
-First preclinical proof-of-concept data presented from precision antibody drug conjugate program deploying a novel SMARCA2/4 dual degrader payload
WILMINGTON, Del., Oct. 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Prelude Therapeutics Incorporated (Nasdaq: PRLD) (“Prelude” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage precision oncology company, today announced the presentation of additional data from its ongoing Phase 1 open-label, dose-escalation trial of PRT3789, a first-in-class, highly selective SMARCA2 degrader designed to treat cancer patients with a SMARCA4 mutation. The data were presented at a plenary session of the 36th Annual EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium in Barcelona, Spain.
The study investigators reported, as of September 23, 2024 (the Cutoff Date), additional follow up data on 65 patients that were enrolled, treated, and safety evaluable. PRT3789 was generally well-tolerated through 8 dosing cohorts. The majority of adverse events reported by investigators have been mild to moderate.
Overall, of the 26 advanced, heavily pre-treated NSCLC or esophageal patients with Class 1 (loss of function) mutations evaluable for efficacy, now with additional follow up, RECIST partial responses (PRs) were confirmed in 4 patients, including 2 of 9 NSCLC patients with confirmed PRs at doses of 283 mg or higher. As anticipated, higher doses are resulting in deeper and more sustained SMARCA2 degradation in PBMCs. Additional patients demonstrated clinical benefit as measured by prolonged stable disease (SD) including one patient on treatment for more than a year.
“We, along with our study investigators, are encouraged by the promising activity shown to date by PRT3789 in this novel first-in-class mechanism for patients who have limited treatment options,” stated Jane Huang, M.D., President and Chief Medical Officer of Prelude. “We look forward to further characterizing and understanding the full potential of PRT3789 through ongoing monotherapy dose escalation and in combination studies with both docetaxel and pembrolizumab.”
PRT3789 Interim Phase 1 Results
PRT3789 is currently being evaluated in an ongoing dose-escalation Phase 1 trial in heavily pre-treated patients with advanced solid tumors harboring any SMARCA4 mutation who have relapsed/refractory disease. Sixty-five patients with advanced cancer were treated once weekly via intravenous infusion at eight dose levels (24 mg, 48 mg, 80 mg, 120 mg, 160 mg, 212 mg, 283 mg, 376 mg), and follow up data reported through to September 23, 2024. The median age of these patients was 62 and the median number of prior treatments was 3 (ranging from 1-10). 34 patients (52.3%) presented with a Class 1 (loss of function) SMARCA4 mutation, while 24 patients (36.9%) presented with a Class 2 (missense, VUS) SMARCA4 mutation and 7 (10.8%) had a loss of SMARCA4 protein.
Initial Safety Data
PRT3789 was generally well-tolerated. Treatment emergent adverse events of any grade observed to date consisted of nausea (26.2%), fatigue (21.5%), anemia (20.0%), decreased appetite (20.0%), abdominal pain (18.5%), and constipation (18.5%). No dose limiting toxicities were observed and no study drug-related serious adverse events were reported.
Pharmacokinetic (PK) and Pharmacodynamic (PD) Data
Preliminary PK data was available from 24 mg to 376 mg dose cohorts. A general trend of increases in exposure (Cmax, AUC) with dose was observed. Mean concentrations were observed above SMARCA2 plasma DC50 (21 nM) for approximately 8 hours at the 376 mg dose. No accumulation was observed with repeat dose administration, consistent with the half-life and once-weekly administration. PD effect (as measured by SMARCA2 protein levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells) observed was more prolonged than PK half-life. Higher dose levels, above 212 mg, demonstrated a deeper, more consistent, and more prolonged PD effect. SMARCA2 degradation was observed in both peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and in available tumor tissue as shown through biopsy.
Analysis of Initial Clinical Activity
Of the 26 advanced NSCLC or esophageal patients with Class 1 (loss of function) mutations who were evaluable for efficacy, RECIST confirmed partial responses (PRs) were observed in 4 patients (2 esophageal, 2 NSCLC), including 2 of 9 NSCLC patients with confirmed PRs at doses of 283 mg or higher. Tumor shrinkage was observed in patients with both Class 1 and Class 2 SMARCA4 mutations. Additional patients on-study demonstrated clinical benefit as measured by prolonged SD, including one advanced NSCLC patient who remains stable and on study having been treated for more than 1 year.
Initial observations of safety from evaluable patients in the PRT3789 plus docetaxel combination dose escalation arm of the trial were also presented. To date, PRT3789 in combination with docetaxel demonstrated an acceptable safety profile, with no dose limiting toxicities or study drug serious adverse events reported.
Additional SMARCA Degrader Presentations
The Company also provided two poster presentations at the conference.
The Selective SMARCA2 Degrader, PRT3789, Counteracts the Protective Cellular Stress Response to Chemotherapy and Enhances the Efficacy of Standard of Care Chemotherapeutic Agents in SMARCA4 Mutant NSCLC Models
The combination of PRT3789 with standard of care NSCLC chemotherapy agents significantly enhances anti-tumor activity in preclinical models of SMARCA4-mutated NSCLC. Downregulation of dominant gene pathways by PRT3789, specifically counters docetaxel-induced upregulation of the E2F and G2/M pathways, resulting in a more comprehensive cell cycle blockade and increased apoptosis in SMARCA4-mutated cells. This synergistic activity was observed with both Class I (loss of function) mutations and Class II (missense) mutations.
Discovery of First-in-Class Precision Antibody Drug Conjugates with a Potent SMARCA 2/4 Dual Degrader Payloads that Safely Achieve Maximal and Tumor Specific Degradation and Efficacy in Mouse Models
PRP0004 is a potent SMARCA2/4 dual degrader that robustly inhibits cancer cell growth and induces cell death. Conjugation of PRP0004 to clinically-validated antibodies yielded novel degrader antibody conjugates (DACs), which demonstrated potent and antigen-selective internalization and SMARCA2 and SMARCA4 degradation in cell lines derived from multiple cancers. Prostate cancer cell lines were among the most sensitive to the PRP0004 degrader payload. PRP0004 downregulated multiple drivers of prostate cancer cell growth and survival and resulted in cell death, rationalizing the use of PSMA-targeting antibodies for initial proof-of-concept studies in preclinical models.
As expected, dosing with PRP0004 on its own was highly efficacious in prostate cancer xenografts but displayed a narrow therapeutic window. However, when delivered as a payload on anti-PSMA antibodies, the anti-PSMA SMARCA2/4 DACs demonstrate robust SMARCA2 and SMARCA4 degradation and antigen-dependent efficacy in xenograft models while being well-tolerated. These data highlight the potential of this first-in-class precision ADC approach utilizing a highly potent SMARCA2/4 dual degrader payload to achieve maximal target degradation in tumors while sparing healthy tissues. This strategy has the potential to significantly expand the reach of Prelude’s novel SMARCA degraders to treating patients without SMARCA4 mutations.
“Preclinical data presented today with our novel approach to develop degrader antibody conjugates by using potent dual degraders of SMARCA2 and 4 as payloads offers first proof-of-concept of effectively and safely targeting an important mechanism to treat cancers beyond those with SMARCA4 mutations” stated Peggy Scherle, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Prelude.

About PRT3789-01
PRT3789 is a first-in-class, potent and highly selective SMARCA2 degrader, in Phase 1 clinical development in SMARCA4-mutated patients. Enrollment remains on track, and the Company expects to conclude monotherapy dose escalation by year end 2024 and identify the biologically
active dose to advance for future registrational trials. In addition, enrollment of patients into back-fill cohorts enriched for NSCLC and SMARCA4 loss-of-function mutations at higher dose levels is ongoing. The objective is to assess clinical activity in a more homogeneous group of patients with high unmet need to support planned discussions with regulatory agencies. A maximum tolerated dose has not yet been identified. Dose escalation continues, now in the 10th dosing cohort (665 mg IV once weekly).

When it Comes to Targeting SMARCA2, Degraders Offer Distinct Advantages Inhibitors Degraders Potency High Selectivity Extended PD Oral Bioavailability X X Early attempts at achieving both potency and selectivity with inhibitor approaches had challenges Inhibitors do not degrade the target and need to be dosed at levels that retain IC90 coverage continuously Degraders demonstrate sustained PD effect as it takes 48-72h for SMARCA2 to resynthesize
Selectively Targeting SMARCA2 Has Been a Significant Challenge for Industry Selective SMARCA2 Inhibition is an Unmet Medicinal Chemistry Challenge Bromodomain Binders Non-selective and inactive in SMARCA4 mutated cancer cells1 ATPase Inhibitors Inhibitors show low selectivity for SMARCA2 in cell proliferation assays (<10 fold2 and ~33 fold3) ATPase domain Prelude’s Targeted Protein Degradation (TPD) Approach SMARCA2 Selective Degradation is possible through differences in ternary complexes and subsequent ubiquitination of unique lysine residues 1 Vangamudi et al, Cancer Res. 2015 (Pfizer); Taylor et al, J.
