Abstract 1465
Background
Canerpaturev (C-REV, former HF10) is an oncolytic, spontaneous mutant Herpes Simplex Virus type 1, and is one of immunotherapies that combine direct tumor cell killing with immune modulation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of C-REV with S-1 in patients with gemcitabine-refractory advanced pancreatic cancer, as well as to assess whether the immune modulation can work in pancreatic cancer by direct tumor cell killing. We report the safety and antitumor activity data of this study.
Methods
Aiming to assess C-REV as the immunostimulator, we randomly assigned patients to be injected to the primary tumor (Cohort 1) or to be injected to both the primary tumor and liver metastasis (Cohort 2). The pts received C-REV at 1x107 TCID50/mL (up to 2mL, depending on tumor size) intratumorally by EUS-guidance or by ultrasound-guidance at a 2-week interval in combination with oral 40 - 60 mg S-1 at twice daily for 4 weeks followed by 2 weeks rest. The study treatment could continue up to 1 year if eligible for injection. The primary endpoint was Adverse events (AEs) assessed per NCI-CTCAE v4.0; the secondary endpoints were best overall response rate (BORR) at 16-week by RECISTv1.1, progression-free survival and viral shedding in body fluids. The treatment regimen of either cohort will be selected for the subsequent stage.
Results
In Cohort 1, 9 patients (pts) were enrolled and treated at data cut-off 16 Apr 2019; 11% (1/9) pts had C-REV-related ≥G3 AE and 11% (1/9) pts had S-1-related ≥G3 AEs. Disease control rate was 56% (0 PR and 5 SDs), and 3 of 5 pts on-study are showing a decrease in lesion size in response to treatment, with 1 documented PRin. In Cohort 2, 8 pts were enrolled and treated. No pts had C-REV-related ≥G3 AE and 25% (2/8) pts had S-1-related ≥G3 AEs. Two of 4 efficacy evaluable pts had SD, and 5 pts are on-study. In both cohorts, C-REV was rapidly cleared from blood, saliva and urine.
Conclusions
Intratumoral C-REV serial injections are safe and well-tolerated in combination with S-1. The majority of S-1-related ≥G3 AEs were similar as the AEs previously reported in S-1 therapy. Assessment of C-REV plus S-1 as a potential new second-line treatment for stage IV pancreatic cancer is ongoing in this study.
