Filter by:The trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of single agent L19IL2, single agent L19TNF, and combination L19IL2+L19TNF given concurrently with anti-PD1 therapy compared to historical control of anti-PD-1 re-challenge alone for anti-PD1 refractory unresectable stage III-IV melanoma.
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-site, Phase II, interventional trial designed to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of BNT111 + cemiplimab in anti-programmed death protein 1 (PD-1)/anti-programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1)-refractory/relapsed patients with unresectable Stage III or IV melanoma. The contributions of BNT111 and cemiplimab will be delineated in single agent calibrator arms. Patients will be randomized in a 2:1:1 ratio to Arm 1 (BNT111 + cemiplimab) and calibrator Arm 2 (BNT111 monotherapy), and Arm 3 (cemiplimab monotherapy). Patients in single agent calibrator arms (Arms 2 and 3), who experience centrally verified disease progression under single agent treatment, may be offered addition of the other compound to the ongoing treatment after re-consent.
Currently, standard treatment options available for Stage III melanoma include locoregional management (i.e. surgery) or systemic treatment (adjuvant to surgery or primarily in the case of unresectable disease). Adjuvant treatment options have shown major improvements in overall survival (OS) and relapse free survival (RFS) in resected stage III or IV melanoma. In daily practice, T-VEC monotherapy is used for unresectable Stage IIIB-IVM1a (injectable) disease, whereas Nivolumab is used for stage IV melanoma (among other systemic therapies). The next major developments are in neo-adjuvant treatment options for resectable stage III disease, where 3 small studies reported high response rates with systemic immunotherapy. This study evaluates the combination treatment of T-VEC + Nivolumab in the neo-adjuvant setting. The concept is that T-VEC can turn an immune desolate "cold" tumor into an immunogenic "hot" tumor. The hypothesis is that this will upregulate the expression of PD-L1 and make it more susceptible for treatment with an anti-PD-1 agent. The investigators believe neo-adjuvant Nivolumab + T-VEC will thus change the tumor microenvironment in patients with stage IIIB/C/D/IVM1a (AJCC 8) melanoma with resectable cutaneous or subcutaneous satellite or in-transit metastases (ITM) and/or tumor positive lymph nodes. With this trial the investigators aim to determine safety and feasibility of combination neo-adjuvant Nivolumab + T-VEC in patients with stage III melanoma with resectable ITM and/or tumor positive lymph nodes. The treatment schedule is based on 4 courses of intralesional T-VEC and 3 courses of intravenous Nivolumab. T-VEC first, in order to achieve the best synergistic effect with influx of CD8+ T cells prior to the first Nivolumab dose. T-VEC monotherapy with the dose 108 PFU/mL is given every 2 weeks (± 3) days after 3 weeks of the first T-VEC dose (with the first dose of T-VEC 106 PFU/mL to allow for seroconversion) , and Nivolumab can be given either every 2 weeks or every 4 weeks. Therefore we suggest the same dosing schedule for T-VEC and Nivolumab every 2 weeks for the purpose of this trial.
Open-label, single-arm, multi-center, Phase IIa study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and immunological response of OBP 301 in patients with unresectable/unresected metastatic melanoma. This proof of concept study will be undertaken in male and female patients with unresectable Stage III and IV melanoma. Patients with unresectable/unresected mucosal melanoma may be enrolled after consultation with the Medical Monitor.
The purpose of this project is to test the addition of a new treatment called denosumab to standard immunotherapies for patients with metastatic melanoma. Denosumab has been used for many years to help treat cancers such as prostate cancer and breast cancer, but it is not currently used in melanoma. We hope the addition of denosumab to current melanoma therapies will make these treatments work better without adding to the side effects. Who is it for? You may be eligible to join this study if you are aged 18 years or over and have been diagnosed with metastatic melanoma (melanoma that has spread). Study details: Nivolumab and ipilimumab are approved treatments for advanced melanoma in Australia and overseas. Patients with metastatic melanoma, who are not enrolled in a study, are commonly prescribed nivolumab alone or the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab as standard care. However, there is limited information on the effectiveness and safety of these treatments in combination with denosumab. Recent melanoma research in animal models has shown that denosumab can make immunotherapies such as ipilimumab and nivolumab work better. Because denosumab has been used in patients with breast and prostate cancer for a long time and is safe, we now want to test the benefits and safety of adding denosumab to immunotherapies in this study.
