Evaluation of Ad-RTS-hIL-12 + Veledimex in Subjects With Recurrent or Progressive Glioblastoma, a Substudy to ATI001-102

Study Purpose

This research study involves an investigational product: Ad-RTS-hIL-12 given with veledimex for production of human IL-12. IL-12 is a protein that can improve the body's natural response to disease by enhancing the ability of the immune system to kill tumor cells and may interfere with blood flow to the tumor. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intratumoral injection of Ad-RTS-hIL-12 given with oral veledimex.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Male or female subject ≥18 and ≤75 years of age.
  • - Provision of written informed consent for tumor resection, tumor biopsy, samples collection, and treatment with investigational products prior to undergoing any study specific procedures.
  • - Histologically confirmed glioblastoma.
  • - Evidence of supratentorial tumor recurrence/progression by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) according to Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria after standard initial therapy.
  • - Previous standard-of-care antitumor treatment including surgery and/or biopsy and chemoradiation.
At the time of registration, subjects must have recovered from the toxic effects of previous treatments as determined by the treating physician. The washout periods from prior therapies are intended as follows: (windows other than what is listed below should be allowed only after consultation with the Medical Monitor) 1. Nitrosureas: 6 weeks. 2. Other cytotoxic agents: 4 weeks. 3. Antiangiogenic agents: 4 weeks (NOTE: short use (< 4 doses) of bevacizumab for controlling edema is allowed) 4. Targeted agents, including small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors: 2 weeks. 5. Vaccine-based therapy: 3 months.
  • - Able to undergo standard MRI scans with contrast agent before enrollment and after treatment.
  • - Karnofsky Performance Status ≥70.
  • - Adequate bone marrow reserves and liver and kidney function, as assessed by the following laboratory requirements: 1.
Hemoglobin ≥9 g/L. 2. Lymphocytes >500/mm3. 3. Absolute neutrophil count ≥1500/mm3. 4. Platelets ≥100,000/mm3. 5. Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) 6. Aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤2.5 x ULN. For subjects with documented liver metastases, ALT and AST ≤5 x ULN. 7. Total bilirubin <1.5 x ULN. 8. International normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) or partial thromboplastin time (PTT) within normal institutional limits.
  • - Male and female subjects must agree to use a highly reliable method of birth control (expected failure rate <5% per year) from the Screening Visit through 28 days after the last dose of study drug.
Women of childbearing potential (perimenopausal women must be amenorrheic for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential) must have a negative pregnancy test at screening.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - Previous treatment with bevacizumab for their disease (NOTE: short use (< 4 doses) of bevacizumab for controlling edema is allowed) - Subjects receiving systemic corticosteroids during the previous 4 weeks.
  • - Radiotherapy treatment within 4 weeks of starting veledimex.
  • - Subjects with clinically significant increased intracranial pressure (eg, impending herniation or requirement for immediate palliative treatment) or uncontrolled seizures.
  • - Known immunosuppressive disease, or autoimmune conditions, and/or chronic viral infections (eg, human immunodeficiency virus [HIV], hepatitis) - Use of systemic antibacterial, antifungal, or antiviral medications for the treatment of acute clinically significant infection within 2 weeks of first veledimex dose.
Concomitant therapy for chronic infections is not allowed. Subjects must be afebrile prior to Ad-RTS-hIL-12 injection; only prophylactic antibiotic use is allowed perioperatively.
  • - Use of enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs (EIAED) within 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug.
Note: Levetiracetam (Keppra®) is not an EIAED and is allowed.
  • - Other concurrent clinically active malignant disease, requiring treatment, with the exception of non-melanoma cancers of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or nonmetastatic prostate cancer.
  • - Nursing or pregnant females.
  • - Prior exposure to veledimex.
  • - Use of medications that induce, inhibit, or are substrates of CYP4503A4 within 7 days prior to veledimex dosing without consultation with the Medical Monitor.
  • - Presence of any contraindication for a neurosurgical procedure.
  • - Unstable or clinically significant concurrent medical condition that would, in the opinion of the Investigator or Medical Monitor, jeopardize the safety of a subject and/or their compliance with the protocol.
Examples may include, but are not limited to, colitis, pneumonitis, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within 2 months of screening, and ongoing maintenance therapy for life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia or uncontrolled asthma

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT03679754
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

Patients who are scheduled for craniotomy and tumor resection will receive one dose of veledimex before the resection procedure. Ad-RTS-hIL-12 will be administered by free-hand injection. Patients will continue on oral veledimex for 14 days. The study is divided into three periods: the screening period, the treatment period and the follow-up period.
