Official study title

A Phase 1/2 Safety Study of Intratumorally Dosed INT230-6

Study summary

This study evaluated the intratumoral administration of escalating doses of a novel, experimental drug, INT230-6. The study was conducted in patients with several types of refractory cancers including those at the surface of the skin (breast, squamous cell, head and neck) and tumors within the body such (pancreatic, colon, liver, lung, etc.). Sponsor also tested INT230-6 in combination with anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies.

Who may be able to participate

The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.

Requirements people may need to meetInclusion criteria

INT230-6 monotherapy Cohorts EC2 and EC3, combination with KEYTRUDA® cohort DEC2 and combination with Yervoy cohort FEC. Where criteria diverge the DEC2 and FEC specific criteria will be noted. 1. The participant (or legally acceptable representative if applicable) provides written informed consent for the trial. 2. Men and Women \> 18 years of age on the day of signing consent. 3. Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status \< 2; (for pembrolizumab and ipilimumab combinations please see supplements DEC/DEC2 and FEC for ECOG criteria). 4. Populations: INT230-6 will be injected into deep or superficial tumors for subjects with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic cancers; (for pembrolizumab and ipilimumab combinations please see supplements DEC/DEC2 and FEC for Populations). 5. Includes subjects with loco-regional disease that have relapsed/recurred within 6 months of chemo-radiation and who have no standard of care. 6. Subjects with metastatic disease who have failed one or more approved standard therapies, or have no alternate approved therapy available. Failure of all approved therapies that have a modest or marginal impact on survival is not required as long as the treating physician believes that treatment on study is appropriate for the subject and documents that the subject elects to defer the approved therapies. Note: There is no limit on the number of prior therapies that a patient (subject) may have received prior to enrollment in any cohort. 7. Subjects must have measurable disease by iRECIST 1.1 criteria including one target tumor for injection by the local site investigator/radiology. Superficial tumors must have one tumor greater than or equal to 1.0 cm, deep tumors greater than or equal to 1.0 cm (as measured by caliper (for non-injected tumors only) or image guidance). Lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been demonstrated in such lesions. 8. Subjects must have a minimum of one injectable lesion as determined by the investigator (for superficial tumors) or radiologist (deep tumors). 9. Prior chemotherapy or immunotherapy (tumor vaccine, cytokine, or growth factor given to control the cancer: systemic or IT) must have been completed at least 4 weeks prior to dosing (with the exception of kinase inhibitors or other short half-life drugs, a 2 week washout is acceptable prior to treatment) and all adverse events have either returned to baseline or stabilized. Note: Subjects who have received prior platinum therapy are eligible irrespective of their response. 10. Prior systemic radiation therapy (either IV, intrahepatic or oral) completed at least 4 weeks prior to study drug administration; (for ipilimumab combination please see supplement FEC

). 11. Prior focal radiotherapy completed at least 2 weeks prior to study drug administration. 12. Prior major treatment-related surgery completed at least 4 weeks prior to study drug administration. 13. No prior primary or metastatic brain or meningeal tumors unless clinically and radiographically stable as well as off steroid therapy for at least 2 months. 14. Life expectancy ≥8 weeks; (for ipilimumab combination please see supplement FEC inclusion criteria). 15. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: 1. Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) 2. A WOCBP subject who may become pregnant or who are sexually active with a partner and who could become pregnant agrees to use an effective form of barrier contraception during the study and for at least 180 days in monotherapy; (for pembrolizumab and ipilimumab combinations please see supplements DEC/DEC2 and FEC for pregnancy criteria). (Male subjects must agree to use contraception and refrain from sperm donation during the study for 180 days after administration of study drug.) 16. Have adequate organ function as defined by the below screening laboratory values that must meet the following criteria: 1. WBC ≥2000/μL (≥2 x 109/L). 2. Neutrophils ≥1000/μL (≥1 x 109/L); (for pembrolizumab and ipilimumab combinations please see supplements DEC/DEC2 and FEC for neutrophil criteria). 3. For subjects with planned superficial only injections: PT, PTT/aPTT, and INR ≤1.5 × ULN, Platelets ≥70x103/μL (≥ 70 x 109/L), Hemoglobin ≥8 g/dL 4. Creatinine within the institution's laboratory upper limit of normal or calculated creatinine clearance \>50 ml/min; (for pembrolizumab combination please see supplements DEC/DEC2 for creatine criteria). 5. ALT (SGOT)/AST (SGPT) ≤2.5 x ULN without, and ≤ 5 x ULN with hepatic metastases. 6. Bilirubin ≤2 x ULN (except subjects with Gilbert's syndrome, who must have total bilirubin \<3.0 mg/dL (\<52 µmol/L); (for pembrolizumab and ipilimumab combinations please see supplements DEC/DEC2 and FEC for bilirubin criteria). 7. For subjects with planned deep tumor injections: PT, PTT/aPPT, and INR within normal limits; Platelet count ≥100,000/μL; hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL. Note: ALT (SGPT) =alanine aminotransferase (serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase); AST (SGOT) =aspartate aminotransferase (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase); ULN=upper limit of normal. 1 Criteria must be met without erythropoietin dependency and without packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusion within last 2 weeks. 17. Additional criteria for combination arms can be found in the appropriate combination protocol supplements. Refer to the Investigative site for details. Additional Inclusion Criteria for DEC2 cohort (anti-PD1 combination, KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab)) Population: Subjects with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic Pancreatic, Cholangiocarcinoma, non-MSI-H and/or MMR proficient colorectal cancer, and Squamous Cell Carcinoma tumors. Additional Inclusion Criteria for FEC cohort (anti-CTLA-4 combination, Yervoy (ipilimumab)) Population: Subjects with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), breast cancer regardless of histology (BC) or soft tissue sarcoma NOTE: DEC and FEC combination cohorts have additional Inclusion Criteria - refer to the Investigative site for details.
