A Study of LioCyx in Patient With Recurrent HBV-related HCC Post Liver Transplantation

June 27, 2022 updated by: Lion TCR Pte. Ltd.

A Phase I/II, Open Label, Single Arm, Multicenter Study of LioCyx in Subjects With Recurrent Hepatitis B Virus-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma Post Liver Transplantation

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represent approximately 70-85% of liver cancer, in which Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the major etiologic agent accounting for at least 80% of HCC in Asian countries. Overall, transplantation remains the best option however, HCC recurrence rate is high among liver transplant patients.

While there are limited treatment measures for HBV-related HCC recurrences, the study hypothesized that LioCyx is capable of lysing target liver cells expressing the HBV cognate antigens and provide clinical benefit to patients with HBV-related HCC.

Detailed Description

The study is a Phase I/II, open label, single-arm, multicenter study of LioCyx. Subjects with recurrent hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma who undergone liver transplantation will be enrolled.

Approximately 6-12 subjects will be enrolled in Phase 1 dose regimen exploration, and approximately 60 subjects will be enrolled to characterize the safety and evaluate the efficacy of LioCyx"

All subjects will be followed up for survival until death.

Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: LioCyx

This is a single-arm study.

Patients will receive escalating doses of LioCyx on Day 1, Day 8, Day 15 and Day 22 of the first 28-day treatment cycle, followed by every 2-week dosing on Day 1, Day 15, Day 29 and Day 43 of repeated cycle. A 21-day treatment break will be given between each cycle.

Autologous T cells transfected with mRNA encoding HBV antigen-specific TCR

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety based on Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious AEs
Time Frame: Start of Treatment until 28 days post last dose
Review the safety profile of LioCyx by assessing the incidence of AEs and SAEs
Start of Treatment until 28 days post last dose

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Response Rate
Time Frame: Start of Treatment until first documented CR or PR, assessed up to 62 treatment weeks (protocol-defined treatment duration is until disease progression, death, or loss to follow up, whichever came first)
Tumor assessment will be according to mRECIST. This is based on percentage of participants with Complete Response (CR) and Partial Response (PR) according to mRECIST from baseline.
Start of Treatment until first documented CR or PR, assessed up to 62 treatment weeks (protocol-defined treatment duration is until disease progression, death, or loss to follow up, whichever came first)
Overall Survival according to mRECIST
Time Frame: Start of Treatment until first protocol-defined PD, and survival follow up until death, assessed up to 62 treatment weeks (protocol-defined treatment duration is until disease progression, death, or loss to follow up, whichever came first)
Assess the efficacy following LioCyx in prolonging overall survival of patients in HBV-related HCC patients
Start of Treatment until first protocol-defined PD, and survival follow up until death, assessed up to 62 treatment weeks (protocol-defined treatment duration is until disease progression, death, or loss to follow up, whichever came first)
Quality of life of patients
Time Frame: Baseline to 28 days post treatment (end of treatment)
Compare the quality of life of patients based on [Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy- Hepatobiliary (FACIT-Hep), version 4]
Baseline to 28 days post treatment (end of treatment)
