Melanoma Merkel Cell Carcinoma Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma | Drug: NT-I7 Drug: atezolizumab | Phase 1 Phase 2 |
This is a Phase 1b/2a, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and anti-tumor effect of NT-I7 (rhIL-7-hyFc) in combination with atezolizumab (MPDL3280A, anti-PD-L1) in patients with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 naïve or relapsed/refractory high-risk skin cancers including cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC), Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) and melanoma.
This study has been designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability, including the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), of NT-I7 in combination with atezolizumab.
There are two phases to this study:
- Phase 1b, a NT-I7 dose-escalation phase to determine the MTD or RP2D
- Phase 2a, a non-randomized parallel dose expansion phase to confirm the MTD or RP2D in both arms.
Arm I: Anti-PD-1/PD-L1 (checkpoint inhibitors, CPI) naïve patients with cSCC and MCC
Arm II: Anti-PD-1/PD-L1 relapsed/refractory patients with cSCC, MCC and melanoma
Number of Patients A total of up to 84 patients will be enrolled; Up to 24 patients will be enrolled in the Phase 1b (up to 6 patients per dose level, using 3 + 3 design), and 60 patients will be enrolled in the Phase 2a (24 patients in Arm I, i.e., 12 patients for each indication, and 36 in Arm II, i.e., 12 patients for each indication).
