Clinical Trial Summary

This is a Phase 1 open label study designed to assess the safety and tolerability of the oncolytic herpes simplex virus 1 (oHSV1) study drug, MVR-C5252, administered intratumorally by convection-enhanced delivery (CED) in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma. Once the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is established in the dose escalation portion of the trial, a dose expansion cohort at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wildtype recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) will evaluate preliminary efficacy of the study drug.


Clinical Trial Description

Oncolytic HSV1 (oHSV1) was the first viral vector studied in clinical trials to treat malignant glioma with positive outcomes for tolerability and potential clinical benefits. MVR-C5252 is a genetically modified next generation oHSV1 with an active domain of human IL-12 and Fab fragment of anti-PD-1 antibody. During viral replication, IL-12 and anti-PD-1 antibody are expressed and secreted into the tumor microenvironment, acting synergistically by increasing the T cell infiltration, converting the cold (immune suppressing) tumor to hot (immune active) tumor, and inducing anti-tumor specific immunity. This study is investigating if oHSV1 MVR-C5252 administered via CED can overcome the BBB (Blood Brain Barrier) in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma. This study will enroll patients in 4 Stages. In Stage 1, externalized Synchromed II pump will be used to deliver Gadoliunium followed by MVR-C5252 for a single administration on Day 1. Stage 2, two infusions will be administered-on days 1 and 28 via the internalized pump. For patients accrued on Stage 3, the second infusion of study drug (Cycle 1, infusion 2) will occur 7 ± 1 days after 1st infusion for a total of 6 cycles (12 infusions). Stage 4, the dose expansion portion of the study, will commence once a MTD/RP2D is established. Within Stage 4 the efficacy of the study drug, as measured by progression-free 6 months survival will be evaluated. ;
