This is an open-label, dose-escalation, multi-center phase I study evaluating the safety of CF33-hNIS (hNIS - human sodium iodide symporter) administered via two routes of administration, intratumoral (IT) or intravenous (IV), either as a monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic or advanced solid tumors.
A Phase I, Dose Escalation Safety and Tolerability Study of VAXINIA (CF33-hNIS), Administered Intratumorally or Intravenously as a Monotherapy or in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Adult Patients With Metastatic or Advanced Solid Tumors (MAST).
CF33-hNIS, a novel chimeric orthopoxvirus, will be administered as a monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab to assess the safety and efficacy of the treatment regimens as well as immunological changes in the tumour microenvironment.
Patients eligible for treatment include those with any metastatic or advanced solid tumor who have documented radiological progression per RECIST following at least two prior lines of therapy which may have included treatment with an Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor.
All enrolled patients will be treated with CF33-hNIS on Day 1 and 8 of Cycle 1 and then on Day 1 of each cycle thereafter. Patients treated with the combination regimen will also received pembrolizumab beginning on Day 1 of each cycle beginning with Cycle 2.
