Show all 12Show fewer
  • Active viral disease, positive test for hepatitis B virus using hepatitis B surface antigen test, or positive test for hepatitis C virus (HCV) using HCV ribonucleic acid or HCV antibody test indicating acute or chronic infection. Positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome; testing is not required in the absence of history.
  • Receipt of any vaccine within 28 days before the first dose of study drug.
  • Other prior malignancy within the previous 3 years, except for local or organ-confined early stage cancer that has been definitively treated with curative intent and does not require ongoing treatment, has no evidence of residual disease, and has a negligible risk of recurrence and is therefore unlikely to interfere with the primary and secondary endpoints of the study, including response rate and safety and tolerability.
  • Symptomatic brain metastases or any leptomeningeal metastasis.
  • Any serious or uncontrolled medical disorder (including cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, or autoimmune disease) that, in the opinion of the investigator or the medical monitor, may increase the risk associated with study participation or study drug administration, impair the ability of the patient to receive protocol therapy, or interfere with the interpretation of study results.
  • History of allergic reaction or hypersensitivity to any component of the OVM-200 therapeutic vaccine or adjuvant.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Multicentre, Open-label, Nonrandomised, First-in-human Study of OVM-200 as a Therapeutic Vaccine in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Ovarian Cancer, and Prostate Cancer

OVM-200 will be tested in humans for the first time in Study OVM-200-100. Up to 52 patients aged 18-75 with prostate, lung or ovarian cancer will be enrolled in the Study to find out if OVM-200 is safe to continue studying it in patients with cancer. The Study consists of 2 parts: a dose escalation part and a dose expansion part. In the dose escalation part, up to 4 increasing doses of OVM-200 will be evaluated in small groups of cancer patients to find the recommended dose for the expansion part. The recommended dose of OVM-200 will then be given to cancer patients in the dose expansion part to confirm safety and understand how effective it is against their disease and if there are any side effects.

Patients who agree to participate in the Study and pass screening will receive 3 doses of OVM-200 in total at 2-week intervals as an injection under the skin. After completing treatment with OVM-200 patients will be followed up for side effects and to monitor changes in their cancer. Patients will stay on the Study for about 6 months in total during which they will have 10 hospital visits. The Study will run at around 5 sites in the UK.

What participants receive

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

  • OVM-200Biological

    The first part (Phase 1a) comprises a first-in-human (FIH) multiple-dose, sequential-cohort 3+3 design to establish a dose of OVM-200 that is safe and tolerable, and that elicits an immune response in humans.

    This dose will be taken forward into the second part (Phase 1b) of the study. Phase 1b will further assess the safety and tolerability of the selected dose and investigate the immune and tumour response in 3 expansion cohorts of additional patients with NSCLC, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer.

Study groups in NCT05104515
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
OVM-200Experimental2 mg/mL OVM-200 solution. Proposed dose levels for Phase 1a: 250, 500, and 1000 μg. The planned doses may be adjusted based on SRC recommendations. Following review of the data, 1 additional dose level may be added up to a maximum of 2000 μg. The dose level for Phase 1b will be selected following review of the data from Phase 1a and will not exceed the dose safely administered in Phase 1a.
Receives: Biological: OVM-200

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary endpoint (safety and tolerability) for this study is the occurrence and intensity of adverse events.

    Measured: 24 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Immune response to OVM 200 as measured by ELISpot for T cell responses and ELISA for antibody responses.

    Measured: 24 Weeks

  2. Disease progression and tumour response evaluated using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumour (RECIST)

    Measured: 24 Weeks

  3. In ovarian cancer patients, tumour marker CA-125 measured and evaluated according to Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup Criteria (GCIC).

    Measured: 24 Weeks

  4. In prostate cancer patients, tumour markers prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and total alkaline phosphatase (ALP) as per PCWG3 response criteria.

    Measured: 24 Weeks

  5. Survivin expression will be correlated to response (based on immune response, tumour assessments, and tumour marker measurements) achieved after OVM-200 administration.

    Measured: 24 Weeks

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary endpoint (safety and tolerability) for this study is the occurrence and intensity of adverse events. (time frame: 24 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 NCT05104515, 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 14 Feb 2025.
