Pumitamig alone or with ipilimumab for first-line advanced or unresectable liver cancer

ROSETTA HCC-206: An Open-Label, Multi-Center, Randomized Phase 1/2 Study of Pumitamig Alone or In Combination With Ipilimumab in Participants With First-Line Advanced or Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)

Phase1; Phase2 Interventional Bristol-Myers Squibb · NCT07291076

This trial will test whether pumitamig, alone or combined with ipilimumab, is safe and tolerable for people with advanced or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma who have not had prior systemic therapy.

What this trial studies

This phase 1/2 interventional trial enrolls participants with histologically confirmed locally advanced or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma and ECOG performance status 0–1. Participants receive pumitamig alone or pumitamig in combination with ipilimumab, with close monitoring for safety, tolerability, and tumour measurements by RECIST v1.1. The phase 1 portion follows dose-escalation principles to identify tolerable dosing, followed by phase 2 expansion to further characterize safety and preliminary activity. Key eligibility limits include no prior systemic therapy for advanced HCC and measurable disease.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults with histologically confirmed locally advanced or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, ECOG 0–1, measurable disease by RECIST v1.1, and no prior systemic therapy for advanced HCC are the intended participants.

Not a fit: Patients with significant bleeding or coagulation disorders, organ transplants, autoimmune disease, prior systemic therapy for advanced HCC, or poor performance status are unlikely to be eligible or to benefit from this trial.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the regimen could provide a new first-line systemic option with a favorable safety profile for people with advanced or unresectable HCC.

How similar studies have performed: Combinations of immune checkpoint inhibitors (for example, PD-(L)1 plus CTLA-4 agents) and atezolizumab plus bevacizumab have shown activity in HCC, but pumitamig is a newer agent with limited prior clinical data in this setting.
