About this study
Official title: An Open-label, Single-arm Exploratory Clinical Trial Aimed at Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of VT-101 for the Treatment of Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer
This is an experimental study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VT-101 for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
Read the detailed description
The investigators designed a clinical study and divided the trial into two phases.
Phase 1(climbing test): The first dose group (2×10^10 IFU) in the ramp-up phase is the accelerated titration dose group, which will include one patient. During the observation period of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in the accelerated titration phase (set as 7 days after initial drug administration for each participant), if a grade 2 or higher treatment-related adverse event (TRAE) is observed, or when escalating to the second dose group (5×10^10 IFU dose group), it will transition to a conventional escalation phase using a 3+3 dose escalation design: If no DLT occurs in 0/3 participants during the observation period, it will escalate to the next dose; if DLT occurs in 1/3 participants during the observation period, an additional three participants will be enrolled at this dosage level simultaneously. If no DLT occurs among these additional three participants during their observation period (total of 1/6 subjects with DLT), it will proceed to the next dose group. If ≥2/6 participants experience DLT, then the ramp-up trial will terminate and a lower dosage level below current level will be selected for dosing expansion stage. Alternatively, based on existing clinical data, the investigators may redefine ramp-up doses. If no DLT occurs in 0/3 or 1/6 of participants during the observation period of the 10×10^10 IFU dose group, the investigators determine whether to continue increasing ramp-up doses and ultimately determine dosages for expansion stage based on exploration results from ramp-up phase. Participants who do not experience DLT during ramp-up phase can continue receiving study drug at same dosage via intravesical instillation once weekly for six consecutive weeks (including initial administration). Subsequent administration is determined by the investigators monthly and should not exceed one year unless disease progression or recurrence occurs, intolerable toxicity develops, participant withdraws informed consent or dies, the investigator deems continued treatment inappropriate or other termination criteria are met according to earliest.
Phase 2:During the expansion phase, approximately 8-10 participant will be enrolled based on the recommended dose from the escalation phase. The number of participant may be adjusted by the investigators based on existing trial data, and non-resectable high-risk and very high-risk NMIBC patients may also be included in the expansion phase study. The dosing plan for the expansion phase is as follows: multiple administrations once a week through intravesical instillation for six consecutive weeks. Subsequent administration frequency will be determined by the investigators (once a month, up to a maximum of one year) or until disease progression or recurrence occurs, intolerable toxicity arises, participant withdraws informed consent or dies, the investigator deems it inappropriate to continue treatment, or other termination criteria are met with priority given to events occurring first.
Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) is defined as an event related to the investigational drug that meets any of the following criteria during the observation period:
- Any toxicity ≥ Grade 3 except for fatigue lasting ≤3 days or fatigue and weakness that can be relieved through rest or self-adjustment; clinically insignificant reversible laboratory abnormalities ≥ Grade 3.
- Any toxicity that cannot recover to ≤ Grade 1 baseline level within seven days after discontinuation of dosing.

Measured: 3 months after VT-101 intravesical instillation

- Age 18-75 years old (including 18 and 75 years old), male or female;
- Patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) confirmed by histopathological examination results (pathological stage: high-grade Ta or any T1 level papillary carcinoma or cystoscopic random biopsy confirmed presence of bladder in situ carcinoma (CIS) (with or without papillary carcinoma): according to the results of the biopsy taken within 8 weeks before the first treatment according to the study. If multiple bladder biopsies are needed to confirm eligibility, the last biopsy must be taken within 8 weeks.
- For patients with high-risk disease at the second TURBT, defined as high-grade Ta/T1 lesions, the subject must completely remove all visible tumors before enrollment and be recorded at the baseline cystoscopy.
- The results of the cellular pathology examination for high-grade urothelial carcinoma must be negative before enrollment, excluding those with unresectable high-risk and extremely high-risk NMIBC in the dose-escalation stage.
- CIS does not require complete removal, but must be completely removed along with papillary carcinoma before enrollment, and be recorded at the baseline cystoscopy. No requirement is made for negative urine cytology results for malignant cells.
Key exclusion criteria (27 listed)
- A current or past history of muscular invasive (T2 or higher stage) or locally advanced (T3/T4, any N) or metastatic bladder cancer;
- Urothelial carcinoma of the upper urogenital tract (kidney, renal collecting system, ureter) or prostatic urethra (including urethral CIS) in the 24 months prior to enrollment;
- Cystoscopy orimaging examination confirmed the current bladder perforation;
- Prior systemic treatment, radiation therapy, or surgery for bladder cancer during screening, in addition to TURBT or bladder biopsy. Intravesical perfusion within 8 weeks prior to initiation of study therapy, with the exception of a single infusion of cytotoxic drugs (e.g. mitomycin C, gemcitabine, pirarubicin, and epirubicin) immediately after TURBT surgery;
- Past treatment with oncolytic virus drugs or similar drugs;
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening; this overview does not establish that a patient qualifies. Full inclusion and exclusion criteria.

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 33 inclusion and 27 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 9 Oct 2024. 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 China. 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 Hailong Li, M.D/Ph.D (0086 + 13626165629, Justinlee719@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Incidence and severity of possible adverse events after intravesical instillation of VT-101 (time frame: 3 months after VT-101 intravesical instillation). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06632964, which also lists 9 linked publications.
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 9 Oct 2024.
