Botensilimab, an Fc-enhanced anti-CTLA-4 antibody, is effective against tumors poorly responsive to conventional immunotherapy.
Conventional immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) targeting CTLA-4 elicit durable survival, but primarily in patients with immune-inflamed tumors. Although the mechanisms underlying response to anti-CTLA-4 remain poorly understood, Fc-gamma receptor (FcγR) IIIA co-engagement appears critical for activity, potentially explaining the modest clinical benefits of approved anti-CTLA-4 antibodies. We demonstrate that anti-CTLA-4 engineered for enhanced FcγR affinity leverages FcγR-dependent mechanisms to potentiate T cell responsiveness, reduce intratumoral Tregs, and enhance antigen presenting cell activation. Fc-enhanced anti-CTLA-4 promoted superior efficacy in mouse models and remodeled innate and adaptive immunity versus conventional anti-CTLA-4. These findings extend to patients treated with botensilimab, an Fc-enhanced anti-CTLA-4 antibody, with clinical activity across multiple poorly immunogenic and ICI treatment-refractory cancers. Efficacy was independent of tumor neoantigen burden or FcγRIIIA genotype. However, FcγRIIA and FcγRIIIA expression emerged as potential response biomarkers. These data highlight the therapeutic potential of Fc-enhanced anti-CTLA-4 antibodies in cancers unresponsive to conventional ICI therapy.
