CUE-101 is a novel fusion protein designed to activate and expand a population of tumor specific T cells to eradicate human papilloma virus (HPV)-driven malignancies. HPV causes multiple tumor types including cervical, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and anal cancers. Initial testing of CUE-101 will be conducted in HPV16+ HNSCC patients. The primary objectives of the Part A&B, first-in-human trial, are to assess the safety and tolerability of CUE-101 in subjects with recurrent/metastatic HNSCC in the second line setting and to determine the maximum tolerated dose or recommended Phase 2 dose based on markers of biological activity. Pharmacokinetics (PK), antitumor immune response, preliminary antitumor activity and the potential for immunogenicity will also be assessed. The goal of Part C&D is to characterize the safety, tolerability, and biological effects of CUE-101 in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with recurrent/metastatic HNSCC in the first line setting. This will be an open-label multicenter phase I trial conducted in the U.S. involving approximately 85 patients.
