Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

1 year to 18 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Informed consent of the parents or patient.
  2. After surgical resection, biopsy, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy, tumor progression must be confirmed by MRI scan.
  3. Biopsy is performed prior to injection of Ad-TD-nsIL12 to confirm DIPG (frozen section-based).
  4. Pre-enrollment patients LPS (patients aged ≥1 and <16 years) and KPS (patients aged ≥16 years) ≥ 50.
  5. Patient must be, in the investigator opinion, able to comply with all the protocol procedures.
  6. Age 1-18 years.
  7. A negative pregnancy test in fertile women (women are considered of childbearing potential (WOCBP) after menarche, unless permanently infertile, including hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, and bilateral oophorectomy).
  8. Lesion considered by the investigator to be accessible for stereotactic biopsy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Serious infections or intercurrent conditions, including but not limited to severe renal failure, liver failure, heart failure, or bone marrow failure, which are not permitted for inclusion according to the investigator's criteria. Patients must be afebrile (<38℃) at the time of viral therapy.
  2. Other investigational medications within 30 days prior to viral treatment.
  3. Participants with immunodeficiency, autoimmune disease, or active hepatitis.
  4. Any medical or psychological condition that might interfere with the patient's ability to participate if older than 16 years or parents ability when younger than 16, or give informed consent or would compromise the patient's ability to tolerate therapy or any disease that will obscure toxicity or dangerously alter drug metabolism.
  5. Tumor with multiple location.
  6. Pregnant or breast-feeding females.
  7. Severe bone marrow hypoplasia.
  8. Transaminases (aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT)) or total bilirubin > 3 times the upper limit of normal.
  9. Neutrophils < 1x10^9/L.
  10. Platelets ≤ 100x10^9/L.
  11. Hemoglobin < 9g/dl.
  12. Patients with Li-Fraumini syndrome or a known germline defect in the retinoblastoma gene or its associated pathways.
  13. Administer any type of vaccine within 30 days prior to Ad-TD-nsIL12 administration.
  14. Blood transfusions or drugs (such as G-CSF) within 28 days before viral treatment to treat pancytopenia or other hematological disorders.

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Experimental Group
Multiple intratumoral injections of Ad-TD-nsIL12.
Biological: Ad-TD-nsIL12
After stereotactic biopsy, the Ommaya reservoir will be inserted through the biopsy channel and two injections of Ad-TD-nsIL12 will be delivered after surgery by Ommaya reservoir (with an interval of 3days). The interval between following injections in the subsequent treatment period will be 3 weeks ±4 days. The assigned dose for each patient will be 3x10^9vp, 1x10^10vp or 3x10^10 vp suspended in 1 ml NS according to cohort design.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety of Ad-TD-nsIL12 intratumoral injection in progressive pediatric DIPG patients.
Time Frame: 3 months after virus injection
The trial will look for possible hematologic and neurologic toxicity of Ad-TD-nsIL12 by NCI-CTCAE v5.0 to determine maximum tolerated dose of this oncolytic adenovirus.
3 months after virus injection

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
QoL
Time Frame: 2 years after virus injection
To measure quality of life baseline assessment and any changes over time by PedsQLTM criteria.
2 years after virus injection
Sample Collection
Time Frame: 3 months after virus injection
Pre- and post- treatment tumor tissue will be collected and tested to determine the immune response of patients. Collected blood will be used to test possible hematotoxicity of Ad-TD-nsIL12.
3 months after virus injection
Tumor response
Time Frame: 3 months after virus injection
To determine tumor response by RAPNO criteria
3 months after virus injection
