Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This phase I/II study evaluates the safety and efficacy of OH2 as single agent or in combination with HX008, an anti-PD-1 antibody, in patients with malignant solid tumors (gastrointestinal cancers, head and neck cancers, soft tissue sarcomas).

OH2 is an oncolytic virus developed upon genetic modifications of the herpes simplex virus type 2 strain HG52, allowing the virus to selectively replicate in tumors. Meanwhile, the delivery of the gene encoding human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) may induce a more potent antitumor immune response.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a phase I/II study evaluating the safety and efficacy of OH2 injection in patients with malignant solid tumors.

In the phase I dose escalation part, three doses (1x10e6, 1x10e7, 1x10e8 CCID50/mL) of OH2 will be delivered intratumorally as single agent and in combination with HX008 to observe the DLTs and to identify the MTD. After the completion of phase I, the recommended dose for single agent and combination therapy will be determined for dose expansion in phase II.

The phase II part comprises of 4 cohorts. In cohort 1, patients will be treated at the recommended dose as defined in phase 1. In cohort 2, OH2 will be delivered in combination with irinotecan for the treatment of advanced gastrointestinal cancers. In cohort 3, OH2 will be injected in combination with HX008, and the first doses of the two anti-tumor agents will be administered on the same day. The treatments in cohort 4 will be identical as in cohort 3, except that the first dose of HX008 will be administered at the time of the third dose of OH2.

The biodistribution of OH2 is evaluated in the phase 1 part of the trial by detection of viral loads in the blood, urine, and saliva at different timepoints. In addition, the injection sites are swabbed for virus shedding on the next day of each dose from cycle 1-3.

Adverse events (AEs) and DLTs are graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) (version 5.0). Radiographic imaging studies are performed using computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Measurement of cutaneous or subcutaneous lesions are conducted with calipers. Evaluation of response are performed by the investigators using both the RECIST version 1.1 and the iRECIST criteria.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Dose escalation and dose expansion

A 3+3 dose-escalation strategy is used in the phase 1 part and 3 dose levels (10e6, 10e7 and 10e8 CCID50/mL) of OH2 are assessed as single agent and in combination with HX008. The recommended dose levels are then determined and adopted in the phase 2 part for dose-expansion.

In the phase 2 dose-expansion part, OH2 will be delivered as single agent in cohort 1, in combination with irinotecan in cohort 2, in combination with HX008 in cohort 3 and 4. There are no comparator arms for these cohorts.

4. Eastern Collaborative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status ≤ 1.
5. Life expectancy \>3 months.
6. The patient must have at least one tumor site appropriate for intratumoral injection.
7. Adequate organ function.
8. Participants of reproductive potential must be willing to use adequate contraception for the course of the study until 3 months after the last dose of any of the drugs in the study.
9. Participants with a history of HSV infection must have recovered at least 3 months before the study.
10. Willing and able to provide written informed consent and comply with the requirements of the study.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Uncontrolled concurrent illness including, but not limited to, severe cardiac disease, cerebralvascular disease, uncontrolled diabetes, uncontrolled hypertension, ongoing or active systemic infection, active peptic ulcer disease.
