The MATISSE study (NCT05742607) is a single arm Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating perioperative IPH5201, an anti-CD39 blocking antibody, in combination with perioperative durvalumab (anti-PD-L1) in addition to neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy in previously untreated patients with resectable NSCLC. The trial is designed to assess whether dual inhibition of the CD39 and PD-L1 pathways, together with chemotherapy, can enhance anti-tumor immune responses and improve clinical outcomes in early-stage lung cancer.
These results follow a pre-planned interim analysis on 40 patients. The combination of IPH5201 with durvalumab and chemotherapy demonstrated higher pathological complete response (pCR) rates compared with the benchmark set by durvalumab plus chemotherapy alone. Notably, pCR was 35.7% and 50% in patients with tumors expressing PD-L1 ≥1% and PD-L1 ≥50%, respectively. Based on these results, the study continues to recruit patients with tumors expressing PD-L1≥1%.
“Patients with resectable NSCLC remain at significant risk of recurrence, underscoring the need for novel perioperative treatment strategies. Disrupting the adenosine pathway through CD39 inhibition with IPH5201, in combination with PD-1 blockade and chemotherapy, could enhance anti-tumor immune responses—particularly in patients with PD-L1 positive tumors, where we observed up to 50% pCR rate in the MATISSE trial. This signal will be further investigated as we complete enrollment of the study in the PD-L1-positive population,” commented Dr. Sonia Quaratino, Chief Medical Officer of Innate Pharma.
The presentation will be available in the publication section of Innate Pharma’s website.

About IPH5201
IPH5201 is a first-in-class monoclonal antibody targeting CD39, a key immunosuppressive enzyme in the adenosine pathway. CD39 is expressed on tumor-infiltrating immune and stromal cells and contributes to immunosuppression by degrading extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) into adenosine monophosphate (AMP), which is then further degraded into adenosine by CD73. By blocking CD39, IPH5201 promotes the accumulation of immunostimulatory ATP and reduces the production of immunosuppressive adenosine, thereby enhancing anti-tumor immune responses.
IPH5201 is being co-developed in collaboration with AstraZeneca and is currently being evaluated in the Phase 2 MATISSE trial (NCT05742607), a multicenter study investigating perioperative treatment with IPH5201 in combination with durvalumab (anti-PD-L1) and platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The MATISSE trial is designed to assess anti-tumor activity, including pathological complete response, and safety, with the goal of determining whether dual inhibition of the CD39 and PD-L1 pathways, in combination with chemotherapy, can enhance anti-tumor immunity and improve clinical outcomes in early-stage NSCLC.
