T-VEC in Non-melanoma Skin Cancer (20139157 T-VEC)

March 17, 2022 updated by: University of Zurich

A Phase I, Open Label, Single Arm, Single Centre Study to Evaluate Mechanism of Action of Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC) in Locally Advanced Non-melanoma Skin Cancer

Evaluation of the mechanism of Action of talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) in patients with locally advanced non-melanoma skin cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study evaluates the administration of T-VEC in non-melanoma skin cancer. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of T-VEC in patients with non-melanoma skin cancer through determination of local immune effects after repeated T-VEC injections.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC)
Intralesional injections of T-VEC up to 4.0 mL of 10 to the 6 plaque-forming Units/mL (PFU/mL)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline local immune effects after repeated T-VEC injections
Time Frame: at baseline, after 3 injections (week 6) and optionally after 6 injections (week 12)
Detection of increased local immune activation markers in skin biopsies of injected lesions. The following markers will be assessed by Polymerase chain reaction (PCR): interferon (IFN), 2-prime, 5-prime oligoadenylate synthetase 1 (OAS1), Interferon-induced GTP-binding protein MxA (MXA) and C-X-C motif chemokine 11 (CXCL11)
at baseline, after 3 injections (week 6) and optionally after 6 injections (week 12)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Detection of Tumor Regression using World Health Organization (WHO) response criteria
Time Frame: at baseline and at week 22
Measurement of the treated tumor size will be performed at baseline and at each visit until end of the study
at baseline and at week 22
Systemic immune response
Time Frame: at baseline and week 6, optionally also at week 12
Detection of increased systemic immune Response markers in sera and peripheral blood mononuclear cells by multi-Color fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS)
at baseline and week 6, optionally also at week 12
Analysis of Adverse events
Time Frame: At week 1, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 22
All serious and non-serious adverse events that occur after enrollment through 30 (+7) days after the last administration of T-VEC will be recorded
At week 1, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 22
