Clinical Trial Summary

The study will be divided into two stages: phase Ib and phase II. The safety and phase II recommended dose (RP2D) of Pexa-Vec combined with ZKAB001 in patients with local progression of failed first-line treatment or metastatic melanoma will be evaluated in phase Ib. Objective response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) of ZKAB001 combined with RP2D's Pexa-Vec or ZKAB001 monotherapy in patients with local progression or metastatic melanoma will be evaluated in phase II.


Description:

The study will be divided into two stages: phase Ib and phase II. The safety and phase II recommended dose (RP2D) of Pexa-Vec combined with ZKAB001 in patients with local progression of failed first-line treatment or metastatic melanoma will be evaluated in phase Ib. Objective response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) of ZKAB001 combined with RP2D's Pexa-Vec or ZKAB001 monotherapy in patients with local progression or metastatic melanoma will be evaluated in phase II. The study is also going to evaluate the combination therapy or monotherapy: 1. overall survival time ((OS)), disease control rate (DCR) and duration of remission (DOR) in patients with metastatic melanoma. 2. safety 3. the relationship between the expression of PD-L1 in tumor tissue and clinical effect; 4. the changes of immune microenvironment (CD8+ expression) in tumor tissue before and after Pexa-vec treatment.

Female or male patients of childbearing age should take effective contraceptive methods during the study period and within 3 months after the end of the study treatment period. Non-operative sterilization female patients of childbearing age must be negative for serum HCG test during the screening period. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Active, known or suspected autoimmune diseases, including but not limited to myasthenia gravis, myositis, autoimmune hepatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, vascular thrombosis associated with antiphospholipid syndrome, Wegener's granuloma, Sjogren's syndrome, Guillain-Barre syndrome, multiple sclerosis, vasculitis or glomerulonephritis. Residual hypothyroidism caused by autoimmune thyroiditis that only requires hormone replacement therapy, controlled type I diabetes, or the absence of external stimulation that is not expected to recur can be included. Patients with eczema, psoriasis, neurodermatitis or vitiligo (patients with psoriatic arthritis will need to be excluded) who only have skin symptoms can be enrolled in the group if they meet the following conditions: the area covered by the rash must be less than 10% of the body surface area; the disease is well controlled at the baseline level, requiring only local steroids, and those with no acute exacerbation in the past 12 months can be included. 2. Subjects were treated with immunosuppressants or systemic or absorbable local corticosteroids within 2 weeks before enrollment to achieve immunosuppression (dose > 10mg/ prednisone or equivalent). 3. Has received or plans to receive any form of organ transplant, including allogeneic stem cell transplantation. 4. Known to be allergic to macromolecular protein preparations, or to any composition of ZKAB001 and Pexa-Vec. 5. Severe allergic reactions or side effects occurred in the past vaccination process. 6. Complications of other malignant tumors less than 5 years before the first dose, except for fully treated cervical carcinoma in situ, basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, local prostate cancer after radical resection, ductal carcinoma in situ after radical resection (hormone therapy for non-metastatic prostate cancer or breast cancer is acceptable) 7. Subjects with known active central nervous system (CNS) metastasis and / or carcinomatous meningitis. Note: subjects who have previously received brain metastasis treatment and subjects with clinically stable CNS metastasis may be allowed to participate in the study (defined as at least 4 weeks before the first dose of the trial treatment: (1) No new or expanded evidence of CNS metastasis (through MRI); (2) subjects have been treated without hormones for at least 2 weeks; (3) any neurological symptoms have returned to baseline levels. 8. Patients with uncontrolled cardiac clinical symptoms or diseases, such as heart failure above NYHA2, unstable angina pectoris, myocardial infarction within 1 year, clinically significant supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmias requiring treatment or intervention, left ventricular ejection fraction at rest was less than 50%. 9. After injection treatment, tumor swelling and / or necrosis may invade important vascular structures (such as carotid artery) or other important anatomical sites (such as spinal cord). 10. A history of severe inflammatory skin diseases requiring drug treatment and a history of severe eczema requiring drug treatment (confirmed by researchers). 11. The subjects had active infection, or had a fever of unknown origin during the screening period or within a week before the first administration of the drug > 38.5 ?. (according to the judgment of the researchers, the fever caused by the tumor can be included in the group.). 12. Active hepatitis B or C (unless HBV-DNA titer < 500IU/mL or copy number < 1000copies/ml, HCV-RNA negative can be included in), HIV positive or known history of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome after antiviral treatment. 13. Subjects are participating in other clinical studies, or less than one month from the end of the previous clinical study, except for non-interventional clinical studies (such as epidemiological studies). 14. HCV therapy could not be stopped within 14 days before Pexa-Vec injection. If a patient is using any antiviral drugs, he or she should consult the researcher to determine whether the patient is suitable to participate in the study. 15. Less than 4 weeks from the previous use of immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as PD-1/CTLA-4 inhibitors (that is, more than 4 weeks from the previous receipt of PD-1/CTLA-4 inhibitors); or have been treated with other oncolytic viruses (such as T-Vec, recombinant human GM-CSF herpes simplex virus injection (OrienX010), etc.) or PD-L1 inhibitors. 16. The patients were vaccinated with live vaccine within 4 weeks before screening. Inactivated vaccines to prevent influenza and inactivated vaccines to prevent other infectious diseases can be used on a case-by-case basis, but it is necessary to consider increasing the elution period before and after medication. 17. Subjects are known to have a history of psychotropic substance abuse, alcohol abuse or drug use. 18. Subjects with active pulmonary tuberculosis or with a history of active pulmonary tuberculosis infection within 1 year before medication, with or without treatment. 19. The researchers evaluated that there was a significant bleeding event in the previous 12 months and the risk of intratumoral injection procedure increased. 20. Pregnant or lactating women. 21. The researchers determined that the patient had other factors that might lead to the termination of the study, such as other serious diseases or serious laboratory abnormalities or accompanied by other factors that would affect the safety of the subjects, or family or social factors such as the collection of trial data and samples.
