About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Telomelysin (OBP-301) in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This is an open labeled, multiple centers, two countries (Taiwan and Korea) non-comparative phase I trial in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. In phase I part, a maximum of 18 patients will be recruited in this study.

Read the detailed description

After screening, each eligible patient will undergo a treatment of OBP-301 within 14 days and will automatically enter follow-up period.

The follow-up period is up to 12 weeks after the last injection in the phase I part.

Each patient will return for follow-up visit weekly in the first month after the last injection, and then every 4 weeks up to the end of follow-up period.

Being tested
OBP-301
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Hepatocellular

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • OBP-301Biological

    A range of dose levels is investigated and the starting dose is 1x1010 VP/tumor. Dose administration will be conducted through a dose-escalating scheme from 1x1010 VP/tumor to 1x1011 VP/tumor, 1x1012 VP/tumor, 3x1011 VP/tumor and 3x1012 VP/tumor.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluation of safety parameters (adverse events, laboratory data, EKG, body weight, vital signs) on patient-base.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)/ Maximum Feasible Dose (MFD) for patients using OBP-301.

    Measured: 16 weeks

  2. Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) for patients using OBP-301.

    Measured: 28 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing OBP-301 in people with Carcinoma, Hepatocellular, run by Oncolys BioPharma Inc at 2 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 18 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in South Korea, Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yira Bermudez, PhD, MBA, RAC (15514442576, y.bermudez@oncolys.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of safety parameters (adverse events, laboratory data, EKG, body weight, vital signs) on patient-base. (time frame: 14 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02293850, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Aug 2018.
