Summary

This Phase I/II trial evaluates LOAd703 in patients with cancer (pancreatic, biliary, colorectal or ovarian) together with their standard of care chemotherapy or using gemcitabine immune-conditioning. LOAd703 is administered by intratumoral image-guided injections. Maximum 50 patients can be enrolled. LOAd703 is an immunostimulatory gene therapy using an selection replication competent adenovirus as a gene vehicle. The virus is derived from serotype 5 adenovirus with the fiber from serotype 35. It expresses the transgenes trimerized membrane-bound isoleucine zipper (TMZ) TMZ-CD40L and 41BBL under control of a cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Have histologic or cytologic evidence of colorectal carcinoma (CRC), pancreatic carcinoma (PC), biliary cancer, or epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC which may encompass epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal carcinoma).
  • Have advanced disease, defined as cancer that is either metastatic or locally advanced, unresectable, and for which radiotherapy or other locoregional therapies are not considered treatment of choice but systemic chemotherapy or no therapy is planned.
  • Have one of the following treatment situations apply:
  • Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) I. A patient with refractory or recurrent metastatic CRC who has either received all conventional therapy; or is entering a "resting" phase between reasonable conventional treatments. II. A patient who is amenable to treatment with LOAd703 plus gemcitabine as a single agent conditioning regimen.
  • Pancreatic cancer I. A patient with either locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic disease who is eligible to receive any line of conventional treatment consisting of gemcitabine and/or nab-paclitaxel. II. A patient who is amenable to treatment with LOAd703 as an "add-on" to standard-of-care gemcitabine-based or nab-paclitaxel- based regimens or gemcitabine or nab-paclitaxel as single agents. c. Biliary cancer I. A patient with either locally advanced unresectable or metastatic biliary cancer who is either treatment-naïve or has received any number of lines of treatment. II. Patient who is amenable to treatment with LOAd703 as an "add-on" to standard-of-care treatment consisting of gemcitabine combined with other agents (e.g. gemcitabine/low-dose cisplatin, gemcitabine/oxaliplatin, etc) in the first line setting or gemcitabine in a combination regimen or as a single agent in latter lines of treatment. d. Ovarian Cancer I. A patient with either epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal carcinoma.

II. The patient has either:

i) Residual disease following first-line standard-of-care combination chemotherapy. ii) Platinum-sensitive disease (platinum free interval ≥ 6 months) in early relapse following first-line standard-of care combination chemotherapy. iii) Platinum-resistant disease and received at least 3 lines of standard treatment. These treatments should have included bevacizumab and/or PARP inhibitors if they are reasonable candidates for such. III. Amenable to treatment with LOAd703 as an "add-on" to standard-of-care paclitaxel-based regimens (excluding bevacizumab), paclitaxel as a single agent, or gemcitabine as a single agent.

  • Have a disease burden that is considered low (i.e. low tumor burden), which is defined on a patient-by-patient basis as per principal investigator's discretion. A rough guideline for defining low tumor burden is that the sum of the product of the bidimensional measurements for all lesions is grade 1 except for any grade of alopecia.
  • Have adequate baseline organ/hematological function, as demonstrated by the following:
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.0 x 109/l
  • Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dl
  • Platelet count ≥ 100 x 109/l
  • Bilirubin 35 mL/min
  • Prothrombin (INR) 0.5mg/kg), lymphodepleting antibodies or cytotoxic agents.
  • Treatment with high dose immune inhibitors including lymphotoxic monoclonal antibodies such as alemtuzumab (CampathR), or sirolimus (RapamuneR) and its analogs, biological therapy, cytotoxic agents or any investigational agents within 21 days of registration.
  • Ovarian carcinoma patients should not be eligible to PARP inhibitor treatment.
  • Patients on warfarin (or other anti-coagulants) are not eligible.
  • Women who are pregnant, lactating, or planning to become pregnant during the study period, or women of childbearing potential who are not using acceptable contraceptive methods. A woman is considered of childbearing potential if she is not surgically sterile or is less than 1 year since last menstrual period. Acceptable contraceptive methods are: combined
