Brief Summary:
This is a phase 1 study to evaluate the safety of intralesional talimogene laherparepvec administration in pediatric subjects with advanced non-CNS tumors that are amenable to direct injection
| Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Advanced Non CNS Tumors | Drug: Talimogene Laherparepvec | Phase 1 |
This is a phase 1, multicenter, open-label study of talimogene laherparepvec in pediatric subjects with advanced non-CNS tumors that are amenable to direct injection in the clinical setting. Approximately 18 - 24 pediatric subjects are expected to be enrolled and treated with at least 1 dose of talimogene laherparepvec into 2 cohorts stratified by age. DLT will be evaluated based on at least 9 DLT-evaluable subjects in cohort A1. The DLT evaluation period is 35 days from the initial administration of talimogene laherparepvec.
| Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
| Actual Enrollment : | 15 participants |

Experimental: Talimogene Laherparepvec (TVEC)
The first dose of talimogene laherparepvec will be administered at a dose of up to 4.0 mL of 10ᶺ6 PFU/mL followed by a dose of up to 4.0 mL of 10ᶺ8 PFU/mL 21 days (+3 days) later. Subsequent doses of up to 4.0 mL of 10ᶺ8 PFU/mL will be administered every 14 days (± 3 days) thereafter. Cohorts will be assigned as follows: Cohort A1 (age 12 to ≤ 21 years). Cohort B1 (age 2 to < 12 years). The DLRT will review the safety data of the first 3 subjects in the older age cohort A1 to decide if the younger age cohort B1 can be opened for enrollment. If dose de-escalation is needed and if permissible based on the incidence of DLTs, additional DLT-evaluable subjects will be enrolled and treated at a lower dose level of talimogene laherparepvec. Dose de-escalation cohorts will be assigned as follows and the same DLT rules will be applied: Cohort A2 (age 12 to ≤ 21 years), Cohort B2 (age 2 to < 12 years).

Drug: Talimogene Laherparepvec
Talimogene laherparepvec will be administered by intralesional injection only into injectable cutaneous, subcutaneous, nodal tumors, and other non-visceral tumors with or without image ultrasound guidance. The first dose of talimogene laherparepvec will be up to 4.0 mL of 10^6 PFU/mL administered on day 1. The second injection, up to 4.0 mL of 10^8 PFU/mL (or up to 4.0 mL of 10^6 PFU/mL for a dose de-escalated cohort), will be administered 21 (+3) days after the initial injection. All subsequent injections, up to 4.0 mL of 10^8 PFU/mL (or up to 4.0 mL of 10^6 PFU/mL for a dose de-escalated cohort), will be administered every 14 (± 3) days. The treatment cycle interval may be increased due to toxicity.

Primary Outcome Measures :
- Percentage of Participants Who Experienced a Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Day 35 ]
All toxicities were graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0:
- Grade 1: Mild
- Grade 2: Moderate
- Grade 3: Severe/medically significant but not immediately life-threatening
- Grade 4: Life-threatening
- Grade 5: Death related to adverse event
The occurrence of any of the below was considered a DLT, if judged to be related to talimogene laherparepvec:
- Grade 4 non-hematologic toxicity
- Grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity that lasted > 3 days despite optimal supportive care
- Any ≥ grade 3 non-hematologic laboratory value if medical intervention was required, the abnormality led to hospitalization or the abnormality persisted for > 1 week unless deemed not clinically important per both investigator & sponsor
- Febrile neutropenia grade 3/4
- Thrombocytopenia < 25 x 10^9/L associated with bleeding event that required intervention
- Serious herpetic event
- Grade 5 toxicity
- Any intolerable toxicity that led to permanent discontinuation of talimogene laherparepvec
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Overall Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Every 12 weeks until the end of follow-up; maximum duration of follow-up was 54.51 months ]
ORR was defined as the percentage of participants who experienced either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per modified immune-related response criteria simulating Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (irRC-RECIST) response criteria.
CR was defined as the disappearance of all lesions (whether measurable or not and whether baseline or new) and confirmation by a repeat, consecutive assessment no less than 4 weeks (28 days) from the date first documented. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.
PR was defined as the decrease in tumor burdena ≥ 30% relative to baseline confirmed by a consecutive assessment at least 4 weeks (28 days) after first documentation.
- Duration of Response (DOR) [ Time Frame: Every 12 weeks until the end of follow-up; maximum duration of follow-up was 54.51 months ]DOR was defined as the time from the date of an initial response of CR or PR to the earlier of PD/death.
- Time to Response (TTR) [ Time Frame: Every 12 weeks until the end of follow-up; maximum duration of follow-up was 54.51 months ]TTR was defined as the number of days from the first dose of talimogene laherparepvec to the first objective assessment of response as per modified irRC-RECIST.
- Time to Progression (TTP) [ Time Frame: Every 12 weeks until the end of follow-up; maximum duration of follow-up was 54.51 months ]
TTP was defined as the time from the first dose of talimogene laherparepvec until objective tumor progression per irRC-RECIST.
TTP was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
- Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Every 12 weeks until the end of follow-up; maximum duration of follow-up was 54.51 months ]
PFS was defined as the time from the first dose to the earlier of disease progression per modified irRC-RECIST or death from any cause.
PFS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
- Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Every 12 weeks until the end of follow-up; maximum duration of follow-up was 54.51 months ]
OS was defined as as the time from first dose to the event of death from any cause.
OS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
