Clinical Trial:

A Phase II, Multi-center, Open-label Study of a Conditionally Replicative Adenovirus (DNX-2401) With Pembrolizumab (KEYTRUDA®) for Recurrent Glioblastoma or Gliosarcoma (CAPTIVE/KEYNOTE-192)

Full Name

A Phase II, Multi-center, Open-label Study of a Conditionally Replicative Adenovirus (DNX-2401) With Pembrolizumab (KEYTRUDA®) for Recurrent Glioblastoma or Gliosarcoma (CAPTIVE/KEYNOTE-192) CAPTIVE: Combination Adenovirus + Pembrolizumab to Trigger Immune Virus Effects

Description

Intratumoral dose (1.0 mL) of DNX-2401 followed 7-9 days later by intravenous pembrolizumab, 200 mg, given every three weeks through 105 weeks (2 yrs.) or until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity. Interventions:
  • Biological: DNX-2401
  • Biological: pembrolizumab

Eligibility

  • A single measurable tumor that is at least 10.0 mm longest diameter (LDi) X 10.0 mm shortest diameter (SDi) and this tumor does not exceed 40.0 mm in LDi or SDi
  • Tumor recurrence or progression documented after previously failing surgical resection, chemotherapy and/or radiation
  • Karnofsky performance status ≥ 70 %
  • Prior anti-tumor therapies must have been completed within time periods specified in the protocol prior to DNX-2401 injection

Exc

Exclusion Criteria
Exclusion Criteria:
  • Multiple (≥ 2) separate enhancing tumors

  • Tumor location in the brain stem
  • Requires treatment with high-dose systemic corticosteroids within 2 weeks of the start of intravenous pembrolizumab infusions
  • Uncontrolled blood-sugar levels defined as HbA1c > 7% on 2 separate measurements
  • Previous treatment with anti-PD1 or PD-L1 agents including pembrolizumab (KEYTRUDA) or any other checkpoint inhibitor(s) (e.g., ipilimumab, nivolumab, etc.)
  • Evidence of active, non-infectious pneumonitis and/or a history of interstitial lung disease
  • Prior gene transfer therapy or prior therapy with a cytolytic virus of any type
  • Brain tumor that is not measurable on MRI or persons who are unable to have MRIs
  • Pregnant or nursing females
