Interventions

  • GSK5764227 — DRUG
    GSK5764227 is a new kind of drug known as an antibody drug conjugate (ADC). GSK5764227 works by recognizing and attaching to a substance known as B7-H3 that is found on the surface of certain tumor cells. Once GSK5764227 binds to B7-H3, it enters the tumor cell and releases a chemotherapy-type drug (known as GSK5757810) which has been shown to damage and kill tumor cells.
  • Dostarlimab — DRUG
    Dostarlimab belongs to a class of drugs called PD-1 inhibitors that use your own immune system to treat cancer (immunotherapy). Dostarlimab is designed to help your immune system by attaching to a protein called PD-1 and stopping one of the signals that keeps your immune system from recognizing the cancer. This may help your immune system attack and destroy the cancer cells. Dostarlimab is approved in some countries to treat patients with endometrial cancer (cancer of the uterus) that is advanced or has relapsed. It is also approved in the United States for all solid cancers that have a particular tumor genetic characteristic and have worsened during or after previous treatment. Dostarlimab has not yet been approved by Health Canada to treat head and neck cancer.

Study Details

The BeeHive study is an investigator-initiated, single center, open-label phase II clinical trial that is designed to conduct a comprehensive multiomic biomarker evaluation across two single-arm cohorts to elucidate mechanisms of response and resistance in recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). It is anticipated that about 20 patients will be enrolled in Cohort A and an additional of 10 patients will be enrolled in Cohort B.

Arms

  • Experimental: Arm A - GSK5764227
    All participants will receive GSK5764227 monotherapy at a starting dose of 8 mg/kg intravenously every 3 week (IV Q3W) in a 21-day treatment cycle.
  • Experimental: Arm B - GSK5764227 + Dostarlimab
    All participants will receive a combination of GSK5764227 (8 mg/kg IV Q3W) and dostarlimab (500 mg IV Q3W).

Primary Outcome Measure

Determine molecular and immune biomarkers on pre and post-treatment tumor biopsies and longitudinal ctDNA kinetics as biomarkers for response or resistance to GSK5764227 and to GSK5764227 plus dostarlimab [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
