A Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Multiple Dosing With VB10.NEO and Bempegaldesleukin (NKTR-214) Immunotherapy in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Cancer

An Open Labelled First Human Dose Phase 1/2a Study to Evaluate Safety, Feasibility, Efficacy of Multiple Dosing With Individualised VB10.NEO and Bempegaldesleukin (NKTR-214) Immunotherapy in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Melanoma, Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), Clear Renal Cell Carcinoma, Urothelial Cancer or Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck, Who Did Not Reach Complete Responses With Current Standard of Care Immune Checkpoint Blockade

Summary

This open labelled first in human dose phase 1/2a study is designed to evaluate safety, feasibility and efficacy of multiple dosing with individualised VB10.NEO and bempegaldesleukin (NKTR-214) immunotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumours.

Detailed Description

This open labelled first in human dose phase 1/2a study is designed to evaluate safety, feasibility and efficacy of multiple dosing with individualised VB10.NEO immunotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumours including melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), clear renal cell carcinoma, urothelial cancer or squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), who did not reach complete responses with immune checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) therapy as their standard of care (SOC) treatment. Patients with melanoma, NSCLC, RCC and urothelial carcinoma must upon screening, have been receiving a CPI (anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1) for at least 12 weeks as the patient's standard of care. Patients with SCCHN can be screened as long as they have initiated treatment with CPI as SOC. The VB10.NEO vaccine will be added to continuing CPI treatment and shall not replace, omit, postpone or terminate the standard therapy. Patients who have been treated with CPI for at least 12 weeks, will be enrolled in case of some benefit to CPI treatment is expected, as defined by partial response, stable disease or disease progression (in case of a mixed response to CPI, provided at least one lesion shows measurable regression and patient, according to the investigator, would have a clinical benefit of continued immunotherapy). The assumption is to combine the immuno-stimulating effect of CPIs with immune responses towards specific neo-antigens in the vaccine, which may possibly increase the anti-tumour effect to reach durable efficacy. One arm of the study patients with SCCHN will have the option to be treated with bempegaldesleukin (NKTR-214) in combination with personalised VB10.NEO. This arm is open for enrollment from November 2019. The study will be conducted in two parts. Part A will evaluate safety, feasibility and efficacy of individualised VB10.NEO and bempegaldesleukin (NKTR-214) immunotherapy in SCCHN patients. The expansion part B will explore efficacy and safety in further patients with selected types of cancer showing signs of efficacy during part A.

•Patients who have been on CPI for longer than 12 weeks at screening need to be per RECIST:
•* in partial response or;
•* stable disease or,
•* in progression, i.e., in case of a mixed response to CPI, provided at least one lesion shows measurable regression and who, according to the investigator, have a clinical benefit of continued immunotherapy.

Exclusion Criteria

•Ocular melanoma.
•Brain metastases (unless controlled and stable for at least 6 weeks) or leptomeningeal spread of disease.
•Positive serological test for hepatitis C virus or hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
•Other concomitant or prior malignant disease, except for adequately treated basal cell carcinoma or other non-melanomatous skin cancer, low-grade urothelial cancer or other malignancies treated with curative intent within 2 or more years pre-study entry and in complete remission at study entry
•Patients who have an active, known or suspected autoimmune disease. Patients having required systemic treatment within the past 3 months or have a documented history of clinically severe autoimmune disease that require systemic steroids or immunosuppressive agents (Exceptions include any patient on 10 mg or less of prednisolone or equivalent, patients with vitiligo, hypothyroidism stable on hormone replacement; type 1 diabetes, Grave's disease, Hashimoto's disease, alopecia areata, eczema).
•Immunosuppression including the continued use (\> 7 days) of high-dose (\>10 mg of prednisolone or equivalents) systemic steroids or the use of immunosuppressive agents for any concurrent condition.
