About this study

Official title: An Exploratory First in Human Phase I Clinical and Pharmacokinetic Study of Intra-tumoral Administration of BO-112 in Adult Patients With Aggressive Solid Tumors, With an Extension Cohort in Combination With Anti-PD1 Treatment

Part 1: 16 to 32 patients with aggressive solid tumors from whom biopsies can be obtained, will receive BO-112 through IT administration.

Injected lesions must be palpable and biopsiable at the time of injection, and biopsied after 7-14 days. Patients will not receive an alternative therapy during the period comprising from first and second biopsy. BO-112 will be administered at a starting dose. Upon confirmation of the safety profile of the starting dose and evaluation of the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, three additional dose levels are expected to be tested.

During the course of the study, subjects will be examined for any side effects that may occur (safety and tolerability).

Additionally this study will also study BO-112 biological activity, the innate and adaptive immune system response and signaling pathways, as well as signs of clinical relevance, will be studied.

Part 2: An additional 30 patients with progressive disease while on anti-PD1 treatment for an approved indication, will receive BO-112 through IT administration in combination with the anti-PD1 treatment to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combination.

Injected lesions must be palpable and biopsiable at the time of injection. Patients will continue with their anti-PD1 treatment. During the course of the study, patients will be examined for any side effects that may occur (safety and tolerability).

Additionally this part of the trial will also study BO-112 biological activity, the innate and adaptive immune system response and signaling pathways, as well as signs of clinical response

What participants receive

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

  • Part 1: BO-112Drug

    Cohorts of three patients per dose level will be treated consecutively in the absence of Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT).

  • Part 2: BO-112Drug

    Also called anti-PD1 monoclonal antibody

    BO-112 at a fixed dose will be administered as an intratumoral injection for up to 5 doses over 12 weeks and continue as long as there is benefit.

    Nivolumab will be administered as an intravenous infusion every 2 weeks at a dose of 3 mg/kg for up to a total period of one year.

    OR Pembrolizumab will be administered as an intravenous infusion every 3 weeks at either 200 mg or at 2 mg/kg depending on the indication, for up to a total period of one year.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of subjects with adverse events

    To evaluate the safety and tolerability of B0-112 in terms of adverse events at every visit

    Measured: Part 1: Day 30 after administration of the last dose. Part 2: 12 weeks and for patients who continue up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Circulating cytokines including type I IFNs, TNFalpha and IL6 (by ELISA)

    Measured: Part 1: At three independent points during the study. Day 7-1 prior to administration, 24 hours after administration and 7-14 days after administration of the agent. Part 2: 12 weeks

  2. Plasma levels of BO-112

    To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BO-112 by measuring the amount in plasma at regular timepoints during the study

    Measured: Part 1: 0-15-30-240 minutes and 24 hours after administration of the drug. Part 2: 1 day

  3. Anti-tumor activity

    Part 2 only: To evaluate the antitumor activity of the combination of BO-112 and anti-PD1 treatment

    Measured: 12 weeks and for patients who continue up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Part 1: BO-112 and Part 2: BO-112 in people with Cancer, run by Highlight Therapeutics at 7 sites in Spain.

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 6 inclusion and 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Spain. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of subjects with adverse events (time frame: Part 1: Day 30 after administration of the last dose. Part 2: 12 weeks and for patients who continue up to 1 year). 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 NCT02828098, 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 29 Jan 2024.
