Trial Outcomes & Findings for SBRT and Oncolytic Virus Therapy Before Pembrolizumab for Metastatic TNBC and NSCLC (NCT NCT03004183)

NCT ID: NCT03004183

Last Updated: 2024-10-15

Results Overview

The objective response rate (ORR) of ADV/HSV-tk plus (+) valacyclovir therapy in combination with SBRT used as a window of opportunity treatment before pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic TNBC and metastatic NSCLC. Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 will be used to assess treatment response. Modified immune-related response criteria (irRC; derived from RECIST 1.1) will also be documented.

ADV/HSV-tk (5 x 1011 virus particles) in a 2-mL total volume will be injected intratumorally on Day 0. Valacyclovir will be orally administered at a dose of 2 g three times daily for 14 days from Day 1 to Day 15. SBRT of 30 Gy (6 Gy X 5 fractions) will be administered over 2 weeks from Day 2 to Day 16. Pembrolizumab (200 mg) will be administered intravenously over 30 minutes every 3 weeks starting on Day 17 and continuing until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or up to 24 months in patients without disease progression.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 30 days after the last dose of pembrolizumab until disease progression, initiating a non-study cancer treatment, withdrawing consent, or becoming lost to follow-up. Median duration of follow-up was 8.3 months (95% CI 3.0-10.1 months).

Population: A total of 56 patient's data was analyzed, 28 patients with mTNBC and 28 patients with NSCLC.
