PHASE 1 TRIAL OF Lm-LLO-TT AND GEMCITABINE IN UNRESECTABLE PANCREATIC DUCTAL ADENOCARCINOMA
PHASE 1, OPEN-LABEL, FIRST-IN-HUMAN TRIAL OF INTRAPERITONEA L Lm-LLO-TT AND GEMCITABINE IN PARTICIPANTS WITH UNRESECTABLE PANCREATIC DUCTAL ADENOCARCINOMA
ClinicalTrials.gov Brief Summary
This Phase 1, open-label, first-in-human study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and recommended dose of intraperitoneal (IP) administration of Lm-LLO-TT in combination with low-dose gemcitabine in adults with previously treated, unresectable or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Up to 18 participants will be enrolled.
Lm-LLO-TT is a live attenuated Listeria monocytogenes-based immunotherapy engineered to express a tetanus toxoid antigen. The study will assess the safety of administering Lm-LLO-TT directly into the peritoneal cavity and characterize its use in combination with low-dose gemcitabine.
Eligible participants will receive a tetanus toxoid booster vaccination during screening and undergo placement of an intraperitoneal access port before treatment. Participants will receive a single loading dose of Lm-LLO-TT followed by five cycles of low-dose gemcitabine and low-dose Lm-LLO-TT administered over approximately 17 days. Participants will be monitored for adverse events, laboratory abnormalities, dose-limiting toxicities, and disease outcomes throughout the study.
The primary objective is to assess safety and tolerability and to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended dose for future clinical studies. Secondary objectives include evaluation of anti-tumor activity. Exploratory objectives include assessment of immune biomarkers, changes in pancreatic cancer-related symptoms, and changes in pain medication use.
Participants will undergo tumor imaging assessments following treatment and during follow-up. A post-treatment tumor biopsy will be required for the first 10 enrolled participants and optional for subsequent participants. Participants will be followed for safety, disease status, and survival for up to 6 months after treatment initiation.
調査の概要
詳細な説明
This is a Phase 1, open-label, first-in-human, dose-escalation study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of intraperitoneal (IP) administration of Lm-LLO-TT in combination with low-dose gemcitabine in participants with previously treated unresectable or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Up to 18 participants will be enrolled. The study will use a Bayesian Optimal Interval (BOIN) dose-escalation design to identify the MTD and RP2D of Lm-LLO-TT for future clinical development.
PDAC is associated with poor clinical outcomes and limited treatment options in the advanced disease setting. Lm-LLO-TT is a live attenuated Listeria monocytogenes-based immunotherapy engineered to express a tetanus toxoid (TT) antigen linked to listeriolysin O (LLO). This study will evaluate the safety and biologic activity of administering Lm-LLO-TT directly into the peritoneal cavity in combination with low-dose gemcitabine.
Eligible participants are adults with histologically confirmed PDAC and measurable disease according to RECIST version 1.1 who have received at least one prior systemic treatment regimen for unresectable or metastatic disease or have a contraindication to standard therapies. Participants must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2, adequate organ function, and a life expectancy greater than 3 months.
During screening, participants will undergo tetanus toxoid immunity testing. All participants will receive a tetanus toxoid booster vaccination before treatment initiation. Tetanus antibody titers will be evaluated before and after the booster vaccination, and evidence of an immune response to tetanus toxoid is required for enrollment. Participants will also undergo placement of an intraperitoneal access port before the first administration of study treatment.
Treatment begins with a single escalating loading dose of Lm-LLO-TT administered intraperitoneally on Day 1. Beginning on Day 2, participants will receive low-dose intraperitoneal gemcitabine followed the next day by low-dose intraperitoneal Lm-LLO-TT. This alternating schedule will be repeated for a total of five gemcitabine/Lm-LLO-TT treatment cycles over approximately 17 days.
The dose-escalation component evaluates escalating loading doses of Lm-LLO-TT while maintaining fixed doses of low-dose gemcitabine and low-dose Lm-LLO-TT. Participants will be enrolled sequentially into dose cohorts, and safety data including dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) will be reviewed throughout the study. Escalation and de-escalation decisions will follow the protocol-defined BOIN design rules.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intraperitoneal Lm-LLO-TT administered in combination with low-dose gemcitabine and to determine the MTD and RP2D. Safety evaluations include adverse event monitoring, physical examinations, vital signs, clinical laboratory assessments, electrocardiograms, and assessment of DLTs.
Secondary objectives include evaluation of preliminary anti-tumor activity. Tumor response will be assessed according to RECIST version 1.1 criteria. Secondary endpoints include objective response rate, disease control rate, and progression-free survival.
Exploratory objectives include assessment of pharmacodynamic and immune biomarkers associated with treatment. Blood samples will be collected for evaluation of circulating biomarkers, including circulating tumor DNA and markers associated with immune responses and tumor microenvironment modulation. Tumor tissue obtained during post-treatment biopsy procedures will be evaluated for immune cell infiltration, tetanus toxoid expression, and other tumor microenvironment biomarkers.
The first 10 enrolled participants will undergo a mandatory post-treatment tumor biopsy approximately 20 to 30 days following completion of treatment. Post-treatment biopsy will be optional for participants enrolled thereafter. Imaging assessments of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis will be performed at approximately Day 20 to 30 following treatment and repeated at approximately 4 and 6 months after treatment initiation.
Additional exploratory assessments will evaluate changes in pancreatic cancer-related symptoms, including pain, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue, as well as changes in concomitant pain medication use among participants who report pain at baseline.
Participants will be monitored for bacterial shedding through urine and fecal sample collection during the treatment and follow-up periods. Participants will also be monitored for safety events of special interest, including infection-related events associated with administration of live attenuated bacterial therapy.
Following completion of treatment, participants will enter a follow-up period that includes safety evaluations, disease assessments, laboratory testing, biomarker assessments, and survival follow-up. Participants will be followed for up to 6 months after initiation of study treatment.
Data generated from this study will be used to characterize the safety profile, determine the recommended dose for future studies, evaluate preliminary anti-tumor activity, and inform the further clinical development of intraperitoneal Lm-LLO-TT in combination with low-dose gemcitabine for the treatment of advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
