About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open Label, Single Arm, Single Centre Study to Evaluate Mechanism of Action of Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC) in Locally Advanced Non-melanoma Skin Cancer

Evaluation of the mechanism of Action of talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) in patients with locally advanced non-melanoma skin cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study evaluates the administration of T-VEC in non-melanoma skin cancer. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of T-VEC in patients with non-melanoma skin cancer through determination of local immune effects after repeated T-VEC injections.

Being tested
Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC)
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Basal Cell, Carcinoma, Squamous Cell, Lymphoma, T-Cell, Cutaneous, Carcinoma, Merkel Cell

What participants receive

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

  • Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC)Genetic

    a modified herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) containing the gene coding for human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)

Study groups in NCT03458117
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC)ExperimentalIntralesional injections of T-VEC up to 4.0 mL of 10 to the 6 plaque-forming Units/mL (PFU/mL)
Receives: Genetic: Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC)

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline local immune effects after repeated T-VEC injections

    Detection of increased local immune activation markers in skin biopsies of injected lesions. The following markers will be assessed by Polymerase chain reaction (PCR): interferon (IFN), 2-prime, 5-prime oligoadenylate synthetase 1 (OAS1), Interferon-induced GTP-binding protein MxA (MXA) and C-X-C motif chemokine 11 (CXCL11)

    Measured: at baseline, after 3 injections (week 6) and optionally after 6 injections (week 12)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Detection of Tumor Regression using World Health Organization (WHO) response criteria

    Measurement of the treated tumor size will be performed at baseline and at each visit until end of the study

    Measured: at baseline and at week 22

  2. Systemic immune response

    Detection of increased systemic immune Response markers in sera and peripheral blood mononuclear cells by multi-Color fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS)

    Measured: at baseline and week 6, optionally also at week 12

  3. Analysis of Adverse events

    All serious and non-serious adverse events that occur after enrollment through 30 (+7) days after the last administration of T-VEC will be recorded

    Measured: At week 1, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 22

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC) in people with Non-melanoma Skin Cancer and Basal Cell Carcinoma, run by University of Zurich at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 18 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Switzerland. 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?

Change from Baseline local immune effects after repeated T-VEC injections (time frame: at baseline, after 3 injections (week 6) and optionally after 6 injections (week 12)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 18 Mar 2022.
