Phase 2 Study of Intralesional PV-10 for Metastatic Melanoma

NCT ID: NCT00521053

Last Updated: 2014-08-25

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 80 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2007-09-30
• Study Completion Date: 2012-06-30

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of intralesional (IL) PV-10 for locoregional treatment of metastatic melanoma. This study will also include assessment of response in untreated bystander lesions following intralesional injection of PV-10 into targeted lesions. Additional objectives are to determine the safety profile of PV-10 following intralesional injection, and assess the pharmacokinetic profile of PV-10 in the bloodstream following intralesional injection.

Detailed Description

This is a multicenter, open-label, single-agent study. Subjects with at least one melanoma lesion ≥ 0.2 cm in diameter that can be accurately measured by ruler/caliper or ultrasound will receive intralesional injection of PV-10 into each of up to twenty (20) Study Lesions. Additionally, one to two measurable Bystander Lesions may remain untreated and will be followed for assessment of bystander response.

To accurately reflect anticipated clinical use, repeat dosing of treated lesions will be allowed at the Investigator's discretion at weeks 8, 12 and 16 following initial treatment for those lesions not exhibiting complete response. Subjects will be followed for 52 weeks following initial treatment with PV-10.

• Total T3 or free T3 (serum triiodothyronine), total T4 or free T4 (serum thyroxine) and THS (serum thyrotropin) within normal limits.
• Cardiovascular Function:

• No clinically significant cardiovascular disease.
• Respiratory Function:

• No clinically significant respiratory disease.
• Immunological Function:

• No known immunodeficiency disease. Subjects must have adequate immune system function in the opinion of the Investigator.

Exclusion Criteria
